Media Anthony ‘Rumble’ Johnson looking to ‘bury everybody’ in UFC return

[Rockman14]

Jesus, what the fuck? My paternal grandmother died in '04, and the maternal one in '11......never at any point in my life would I have felt remotely comfortable doing this lol.

Even if he has a closer relationship with his grandma than I did mine...I can't imagine doing that.

That is the type of playing around I'd do with girls I've had non-platonic relationships in the past. Not saying there's anything wrong going on between him and his grandma, I obviously just don't share their sense of humour and it's weird as fuck to me.

I have nothing to add, just another what the fuck...

Is that the (Russian?) kickboxing girl who was supposed to fight but never did?

I'm surprised that hasn't gotten more attention. People on this site scrutinize much more trivial things. Coupled with all the past allegations against Rumble of violence against his female sexual partners I think it's safe to conclude that the man has some issues with the opposite sex. And not the common kind. The kind it takes a professional who's at the top of their field to figure out.

 

[Bobble Head]

Rumble is going to make the division crumble. Buckle up.

 

[Joseph_McBride]

If he can stuff the takedowns of guys like Rakic & Ankalaev he can get the belt. Or if he can avoid being matched up with them.

Not sure who his first return fight will be against but he should be getting booked soon.

 

[SamboPunch]

Hasn't he been talking about coming back for a year already
Wake me up when he has a fight

It's been 3 fuckin years since he fought and I just don't get it. He had zero reason to stop fighting. Yeah he looked unstoppable until he got to the belt and lost. Idk, I think that just shows he lacks confidence in himself.

 

[Stagliano]

No, because he gives up as soon as there is adversary, retired after he got beat up by DC twice and returned only cause DC retired and Jones vacated cause he knew he could never beat them.

Still ppl on sherdog are fetishizing this guy cause of his "explosivness".

I have nothing agsinst the guy. He's just not that unstoppable wrecking machine some ppl claim him to be.

Where the fuck does your avatar come from lol

Legion, it's a strange but great series.

 

[Mike]

If he's close to as good as he was a few years back, few guys would pose a threat.

Legion, it's a strange but great series.

Um, only two guys potentially being a threat to him does make him pretty dangerous tho.

 

[BoTyson]

I wonder why he chose now to come back when Jones and Cormier are not active anymore <45>

 

[Fioretti]

Remember when Rumble was a WW and they fed him future LW Charlie "The Spaniard" Brenneman and ol' Chucky got head kicked into oblivion (or head kicked into Bolivian, as Rampage would say)? I thought we had our first Octagon death.

"Bolivian" is a Tyson quote...

Well, DC wasnt a potential thread to him. He was the reason he quit mma and retired.

 

[GaryEric]

Rumble vs Israel, make it happen Danaa

Israel ducks that fight lol.

 

[Pakman]

That LHW division is weak.
If Rumble can sustain this mindset. He gets that belt.

he's coming back as a HW

 

[xhaydenx]

Just checked, all of his losses has come via submission.

Just checked also, and you have to go back 15 fights and to 2012 when he was fighting Vitor at MW and gassed to find his last submission loss that wasn't to Cormier, who was one of the best. You don't think he's not gotten better at not getting subbed?

No one apart from DC has subbed him at LHW or HW, and in one of those fights he was shrugging DC off easily and then for some stupid reason decided to go for his own takedowns.

And again, who is going to get him down and sub him at LHW or HW now?

 

[Ancient Warrior]

Rumble obviously goes to the same bs school Jones does.

All talk and no action.

 

[bambammccoy]

Thought the same thing till he entered USADA testing pool back in Aug/Sept. Hopes are high for me now.

Then again, Nick Diaz has been in the USADA testing pool for almost a year now.

 

[Mike]

You're trying pretty hard to not understand a really clear point. One guy beat him, one guy MIGHT have beat him. That puts him pretty far above the pack. Especially when those guys are gone.
