Wanderlei Silva gets lifetime ban

GREAT opportunity for Japan MMA to be reborn.

If they capitalize on this sissy lala shit, they'll take over the industry.
 
If he's not licenced can they still fine him, do they have the power to do that

Sure they can fine him all they want. But since they banned him and he can never reapply for a license, why would he bother ever paying it?
 
cheap move from nsac

Yep.

Overeem...you ran so you only get a 9 month ban because we like you and you are polite.

Wanderlei....with no precedence we are giving you a lifetime ban for your 1st offense.

Bunch of clowns
 
Government officials are paid pretty handsomely too, only difference is you don't get to choose whether or not to pay for their service.

...and neither I nor anyone else in here are claiming they are sacrificing their lives for our benefits.

I'm sure the commissioners on the Nevada State Athletic Commission are all receiving welfare checks and working 3 jobs to make ends meet :rolleyes:

Yea, there is nothing between that and big shot suits with high end hookers and coke parties
 
lol they had better put an end to all of sports then, the fn morons. Wanderlei, enjoy your millions, thank you for the memories friend. NSAC your a frickin joke. How can you ban someone who has pretty much stopped fighting anyhow. You mean you've banned him for ONE fight? lol gtfo

Wanderlei Silva's attorney, Ross Goodman, called NAC a "kangaroo court." Promised to appeal today's ruling to district court within 30 days.
 
Had Wand not announced his retirement, they would just give him one or two years. TS faked his test, which is as grave as running from NSAC, if not worse, and just got one year.

Since Wand won't fight anymore, it doesn't make much of a difference and they don't need any mercy.

Now... how enforceable is the fine? It would be funny as hell if Wand decided he "misses Brazil" and dodged the fine too.

Don`t you respect more the man who comes up to you and discloses his wrongdoings face to face, instead of a guy who literally runs out the back door in order to avoid letting the truth come out?

Good. These commissioners are an absolute joke.

"Cormier....what is your strategy for the Jones fight" "Are you going to keep away from his big arms like you did in the brawl?"

Seriously...they asked Cormier this during the hearing.
 
Ironic how Wand and Chael's names have been practically married together in this incident and they go out almost the exact same way after being scheduled for a grudge match.

The Bad Guy and The Axe Murderer.. til death do you part.
