No, hawaiian’s are hawaiian, I think their closer to an indian/tribal culture than they are to an asian culture. I could be mistaken..

They are considered polynesian I believe. That lumps them in with other island culture around Southeast Asia.

Not what you generally consider Asian.

My eyes might look a little on the closed side when I puff, does that make me Asian too?

Calm down there buddy. Last I checked, BJ Penn is from Hawaii. Do you know in which Country Hawaii is located? U.S. of AMERICA!!! That would make BJ Penn an Asian American! I said Asian. I was referring to the Japanese Bantamweight fighters that refuse to fight Faber. Are you on high blood pressure medication? That was funny how you spelled dum as well. And how do you know I’m not of Asian decent?

Aren’t all the brothers named B.J. or something?

All named Jay, or something like that, B.J stands for Baby Jay, cause he’s the youngest.

I am pretty sure BJ Penn is part Korean or something on top of being Samoan.

Hey Kahaluu Caz!!!!! U should apologize to RedDog for your reallllly rookie comment. Or at least find another angle to bash RedDog if u didn’t like what he wrote.

Im hawaiian guys and yes he has hawaiian but also korean, have you seen his mother. In hawaii most of us have asian blood in us due to the asians who migrated in the past to hawaii, if BJ was pure hawaiian trust me you would know it. So yes he is asian technically. Redog it’s all good! i do apoligize for jumping the gun and did not mean to fuel any fires, PEACE!

RedDog-

Your post is still asinine…

Comment by RedDog
2008-08-06 15:02:49

OJR, the comment was never meant to turn into a cultural or racial thing. I was trying to say that I want to see Faber fight these Japanese fighters around his weight class that get a lot of hype and I think he would win. I’m sorry if anyone was offended.

Only the over sensitive were offended, I knew exactly what u were refering to. If u said something like “all the over-hyped Japan fighters” no one would have over-reacted.

I would luv to see the Japan fighters fight here.

Rampage might be charged with manslaughter in the hit and run the other day. A lady had a miscarriage. dont know how to spell that sorry, but im not sorry

Comment by BNF
2008-08-06 11:39:46

Mania tell this dude you posted this like a week ago, but it said nothing about manslaughter.

 
Comment by O damn he got caught
2008-08-06 12:31:24

I read about that and I think it’s complete bullshit, from what I understand he side swiped her car, doing no physical damage to her what so ever, she has a miscarriage and it’s his fault??? How the hell do they figure, women can have miscarriages for all different kinds of reasons this chick is a gold digger, it’s very unfortunate what happened to her, but it really doesn’t sound like she has any business blaming this on rampage. I’d like to know if she’s a smoker/non smoker, drinker etc..

Comment by PW
2008-08-06 15:10:57

First, smoking and drinking can cause birth defects, not miscarriages. Second, if she has a pile of medical reports that show she and her baby were healthy up until Rampage hit her then he has a serious problem on his hands. Most states, California included, have laws protecting fetuses. At the very least she will win a civil suit against him.

True PW. Just because you are a fan of a fighter, doesn’t mean he didn’t majorly fuck up. I like Rampage, but I side with the victim on this one. I don’t think that Rampage will face a manslaughter charge, but he should have to pay for his actions.

The Faber-Pulver WEC event was on TSN. But this past weekend, WEC was on TSN ‘alternative feed’. Whatever that is…

Who the HELL is “aryanny” ?? They got all those known mma fighters introducing themselves and then some random pornstar skank just shows up and says her name… like anyone cares.

it was arianny, the ufc ring girl, she is more popular than alot of the fighters, watch a fight or two, she is LITERALLY shown all the time, and most of all she is a classy dame, no need for name calling lol

Comment by ViolentMike
2008-08-06 15:58:27

Plus Goldy feels the need to mention her name with the adjective “Beatiful” in front of her name every single time the camera shows her.

“And there’s the beatiful Arianny”

Urijah Faber is arguably the most marketable fighter in North America. He is a very exciting and talented fighter and he has a very charismatic personality. He is confident without being arrogant. He is laid back but tough. If Faber beats Brown (likely), I’m not sure who else there is for him to fight in the WEC – get Miguel Torres to go up a weight class? He is kind of in the same situation as Condit. I think that some re-alignment between the UFC and the WEC would be a good idea.

Comment by O damn he got caught
2008-08-06 13:16:14

There is no featherweight division in the UFC, as far as 145ers go Fabor is the best right now. If he clears out the division then thats it, there isn’t anyone left to step up to the plate, he’s either going to move up a weight class or he’s just going to sit there and dominate.

Urijah wants to fight BJ Penn, huh?. . . I say let Urijah have BJ, that’ll knock him down a few pegs. Better yet let Urijah move up to lightweight, enter the UFC, and lose all marketability losing to the likes of Penn, Sherk, Huerta, Florian, Franca, and Griffin.

Comment by b.w.
2008-08-06 15:02:50

he said he would fight b.j. if it came down to it. he didnt call b.j. out or anything. he’s trying to say its buisness, nothing personal.

 
Comment by THORAZINE
2008-08-06 16:19:25

I really don’t think Urijah wants to move up to 155 lbs, he’s too small. Why not have those guys cut to 145 lbs… that would be more fair.

Brown is a very good figher. Has beaten Yves Edwards.. Guy definitely has potential to win, but I’d put money on Faber.

Comment by ViolentMike
2008-08-06 16:00:19

Yeah, but he beat Yves Edwards when Yves head wasn’t in the game. It was right in the midst of his span of 5 losses in 6 fights. He was losing to anyone and he just didn’t care.

Tyson Griffin called out Urijah that he was scared to move up to LW and face him, LMAO!!!!!!!!! I bet the ranch Faber would pound him within rd 1. Yeah, Faber lost to him, but I don’t see that happening again. Faber is not even near his peak, and very dangerous!! SAcTown!!!!! Anyone heard of talk of Clay Guida moving down to 145 to face Faber?

 
Comment by Sacto
2008-08-06 22:24:04

Tyson Griffin is calling out Urijah at the same time he is ducking Nate Diaz. Nate has been screaming for a fight with Tyson. Urijah would be giving up quite a bit of size if he moved to 155, but Frankie Edgar isn’t exactly a big LW and he beat Tyson. Urijah is on top of his game and I think he could KO Tyson Griffin if he decided to move up.

The Diaz bro’s are screaming to fight everyone. Anyone that underestimates Tyson Griffin has got rocks in his head.

Why doesn’t Faber move up to a real weight class? I guess he is content fighting a bunch of no-names. His only real test has been Pulver. And even then, Pulver is way out of his prime. Yawn. I don’t believe the hype for this kid.
