I actually had to post this again. I cannot believe someone is angry about using language correctly in a forum. Am I supposed to ostensively indicate or express how I feel about Manhoef in the UFC? How else am I supposed to communicate with you fella?

Sure, but the question was "why has he never signed with the UFC", not "why isn't he with the UFC now"?
Now - whether his ability is good enough or not is borderline and fair to debate.
A few years ago, when he was ranked, winning kb tourneys and becoming the only man ever to drop Hunt, it wasn't. It was almost definitely the desire to kickbox and ability to make more money on the outside.

Manhoef vs. Belcher
Manhoef vs. Cung Le
Manhoef vs. Leben
These are all matchups I would pay to see right now, but the reality is that Manhoef will never sign with the UFC, especially after going 0-2 in Strikeforce.

You spelled, "seal" wrong. Just sayin. :icon_lol:
Hey, man, I'm fuckin' with you. IT'S or ITS cool. I don't know which. Have to ask the other guy.
Mizuno dropped him standing and then submitted him. Manhoef was using the corner of the ring to hide.

You do know that guys like Michael Kuiper, Caio Magalhaes, Buddy Roberts, and Jared Hamman are on the UFC MW roster.

Manhoef KOd Ian Freeman who's a UFC vet and who beat the living shit out of Mir. :redface:
Manhoef KOd Mark Hunt who's 3-1 in the current UFC :redface:
Manhoef beats anyone in the UFC as long as the fight's on the feet, but most guys would probably start shooting for TDs as soon as the bell rang

Its not that your using your obvious superior intellect to communicate youre feelings(which is funny in itself).
Look where you are posting. MMA forumn not a lit forumn, not any sort true intellectualy based subject matter.
So you are basically just being a asshole. You trying to find some way to one up a faceless person because in real life you would'nt have the nerve to attempt.
I agree that if you cant even communicate at a basic elementary level, you probably shouldnt be on a forumn period.
However to take pride on debasing indivisuals, because they do not feel like running through spell check. That is just sad and pathetic and shows your character or lack their of.
HAHa you got me.
It's almost 2013. He was beat standing by Robbie Lawler, who lost all of his big fights in Strikeforce (including losing his next fight in a stand up battle to grappler Babalu).

Great wins, but they were from a long time ago. The Freeman win was way back in 2006, so it doesn't really hold any merit for proving Manhoef should be in the UFC.

Manhoef just got caught, just like Cro Cop got caught by Randleman. Manhoef was completely raping Lawler until he got a bit too careless and Lawler landed that lucky punch.
Yeah, I mean, he shouldn't be in the UFC now, he's nearly 40, but I would have loved to see him in the UFC back in 2006.

I don't believe proper grammar should be reserved for lit classes. I've found poor grammar can hinder my ability to understand a post. If you're making the effort to communicate something, please respect the people who are taking time to read your thoughts enough to do it right.
