  1. J Lou says:

    That does suck. I guess it makes more sense why he thinks MMA is getting boring.

    • Bob says:

      First he said MMA is boring and wants to get it now he is injured all of a sudden.

      hmmm something sure is fishy.

      Rampage I use to like you but your sense of humor does not outweigh your selfish inconsiderate attitude!!

      Peace

  2. learntoread says:

    Machida or Shogun would be ideal replacements, being that they’re both Brazilians.

    Or maybe have Gustafsson fight Glover @ 153, and have the Shogun/Machida rubber match @ UFC on Fox.

  3. magoo says:

    Looks like Page dodged a bullet just like Hendo!!!

  4. m says:

    Vera. Where he at?

  5. Me says:

    Speachless… Another injury? Seriously? Why is it always the top fighters that get pulled out due to an injury? Annoying as fk.

    • Mike b says:

      I was saying the same thing bro.i can tell ur a true mma fan.that shit pisses me off to.i love this sport and look foward to watching these fights.im speechless as well,also very disappointed.

      • ASDF says:

        i think it has to do with the fact that they use a lot of weights in their training. Some mma fighters don’t, but I think most do. It wears on the joints and …. injury. Injury bug starts to bite more and more the older they get. It’s weights. BJ, and AS, I think looks like they don’t place a large emphasis compared to the other fighters.

  6. bum says:

    rampage sucks who cares

  7. Xaninho says:

    ****! Aldo out too!

    • Me says:

      Jesus your right, Damn this card was stacked as hell and now the card is just falling apart. No Frankie – Aldo, No Rampage Teixeria, and no Vitor – Belfort. Damn what’s up with all these injuries!

  8. ,., says:

    Yeah Aldo is out with a foot injury.

  9. warrenking579 says:

    Chael will step and fight both

  10. jacob says:

    Let’s see if chael will step in To face glover. Lol

  11. Black Jesus says:

    Grampa Quinton would have gotten KTFO anyways. It was a good call on his part to duck that fight. Suck for us to have to look at his ugly mug until they hand him an opponent that he knows he can win against. Go away Rampage

  12. 123 says:

    hopefully ufc 152 will have no injuries in the next 10 days.

  13. Pepper says:

    Alexander vs Glover Do It Dana!

    • Keep Fitch (Forever) says:

      That fight makes no sense idiot. A guy who is a top contender v a guy whos record is 1-0 and nowhere neae top10? Pffff. Glover is a stud, but a win over him doesnt warrant a title shot. Glover v Sonnen would make alot more sense.

  14. Jujitsu Player says:

    ****! i really wanted to see this fight. Probably put in another bull sh!t replacement and made turn it into another weak ass card…..

  15. tenorhighc says:

    Rampage, you’re fun to listen too. But you SUCK!
    UFC needs to kick Ranpage to the curb or just use him for cheap novelty fights like make him fight Toomey or Kimbo Slice.
