Being a hardcore fan of 15 years with other hardcore fans of atleast 6 years. Once we saw Coleman thats the first thing everyone said is how old he looked. Now its ok to have Randy in there who has proven himself against the best in recent years and shown that age had little effect on him. Even though i believe if not for a few choice match ups he too would be out to pasture but his name value demands the UFC keep him useful. But by allowing Coleman to be in the UFC goes against everything the UFC stands for. Coleman in his later years just hasnt earned a right to still be at the highest level. BY allowing him to stay at that level you really run the risk of tarnishing the accomplishments that Randy has achieved in his later years. Mainstream may now be asking themselves was Randy at the highest level on MMA because he was good or just a name? That maybe the message new fans got from this fight. As funny as it was to see Coleman talk smack to Tito. It would be a useless fight. Everyone knew Coleman has no mobility and no striking and no speed, and even lacks a punchers chance. Tito would do the same to him as Randy did. But Tito has lost so much speed in recent years he cant beat anyone of note. What we saw Saturday night was typical Tito. Using every chance he gets to pick fights he cant lose for easy paydays. Its what he did with Ken and after seeing how pathetic Coleman looked he knew he better talk it up or get ready to face real challenges. BTW, your friends werent alone.

THe original showing of 109 Countdown was effected by the 107 lead in. But yet using the second showing of 109 dont work as the second showing is always less. Maybe looking bakc and getting a good sample of how much the numbers drop from first showing to second showing on past countdowns. Then multiply that percentage by 109's second showing. That should give a better idea of 109's first showing without the lead in of 107. Confused? lol An idea to better use the countdown numbers as an indicator.
