We’ll fly you and a guest to a UFC® fight card featuring your favorite fighter and put you up in our hotel. Once you hit town, youll have dinner with Dana White, Playboy Cover Girl Rachelle Leah, and some UFC® greats.

Then, youll be with your favorite fighter all weekend, from special access at the weigh-ins to unprecedented access on fight night. Youll be spending time in the locker room as your fighter gets ready for his bout, and youll walk out to the Octagon as a member of his entourage. Youll join his camp in his corner, and, should he win, youll be celebrating inside the Octagon alongside him.

This is a once in a lifetime chance, so bid what you can because its all for an amazing cause- the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund. Our goal is to raise money to build a state of the art facility dedicated to treating soldiers with traumatic brain injury and other psychological health issues.

Good luck and thanks.

Holy Sh*t mania. Wow. Now that’s what I call …..I don’t even know what to call it…..amazing. If I were rich I’d pay a boatload to go to whoever is going to whoop Bisping. And then I’d drink. a lot. with some fighters. and hopefully their female entourage. Good times.

I wonder what UFC/Dana would think if I went. We should start a “Mania VIP” campaign. If we dont raise enough money it all gets returned.

am I missing something mania? you seem to be on great terms with most of the fighters, and have a pretty successful site, any reason Dana would be upset if you won?

I wish I was rich. Somebody is going to have a ridiculously fun weekend.

That is going to coast/raise some serious coin. Must be nice to be loaded.

It would be funny to see someone win the bid, and then choose a fighter like Gurgel. haha

Comment by brendan
2008-11-26 01:44:45

I would choose Fedor, maybe they would sign him then? on a serious note… does anyone have ANY doubt in their mind that the highest donation is going to be the one in that position… i hope its random but im having a hard time seeing it

I would easily choose Rampage! Of all my favorite fighters (GSP, Anderson, Arlovski, Gonzaga, Leites, Mir, Fitch, Jones and Johnson) he would be the most fun to hangout with on a huge fight. Man, I wish I had a loaded relative to go to offer up that money for a Christmas gift. That would be sick to have that experience.

That is insane! Great idea, and I imagine it will bring some serious bids. Great cause as well. I will definately help out during this fund raiser. I think it is a great chance for the MMA community to show a different “more human” side if you will. Props to the UFC and more importantly the Troops.

Dana is a prick to some of his fighters, and a real hot head. But I know deep down he has a good heart, he’s a good man who let’s his temper get to him.

who ever wins the bid better not choose gsp. its gonna suck being in the ring with him after he gets knocked out by bj.

i love how bj fans are so insecure that they come out at every possible chance to turn a conversation into how bj will beat gsp.

Jonsey you got some of your words messed up you meant who ever wins the bid better choose gsp. its gonna rock being in the ring with him after he knocks out bj. HA HA.

Remember mine to. I’ll take my chances of you gloating. You will be to busy running with your tail between your legs, as far away from this site as you can, when GSP dismantles BJ. Maybe you and Adam G can get together and drowned your sorrows and even make up a few excuses while you’re drunk. You’ll be more creative that way,lol.

Damn This Is Amazing And Maybe A Good Way To Possibly Start To Get Your Foot In The Door To Getting Some Training With A Camp If You Are A Mma Practitioner

Wow How I Would Love That

Bid is up to 9,900 right now.

Comment by RyanHobbs
2008-11-26 02:42:12

I have 2200 that I can throw down. Too bad that’s not even close to half. That’s all I got too. I have an idea for raising money if anyone wants to contact me at RyGy2001@hotmail.com Maybe we can split the costs and figure this out.

Lets see if Stinky Fingers bids on it. If he is as rich as he says he is, it should be a breeze.

Watch Mandy Moore bid on it to hang with GSP.

I’m going to bid, win, then call out all you motherfuckers in the middle of GSP’s interview with Rogan after the fight….lol.

That would kick ass lol.

I admit this is a great cause but is it not a shame that it is needed at all. The US government should be doing everything in its power for the great men and women that put their lives on the line and are injured. I am a vet from the first Gulf War. Luckily I returned uninjured.

best point on this thread.

Comment by introvert
2008-11-26 15:00:19

You know, I back all troops that put their butts on the line….BUT, why is that many people sign up, get paid, then say that everyone else owes them something more than a debt of gratitude after the fact? Do most people feel that they should get paid for training, then never put their trained skills into action? Wouldn’t that be a waste of taxpayer’s money? You signed up, you got paid, earn your money.

……we owe you nothing but a debt of gratitude.

Thanks

Comment by markinwales
2008-11-26 15:17:31

I cannot speak for other vets but I do not feel that you owe me anything. I signed on the dotted line to serve my country and I had no illusions that this act may put me in harms way. As I said above, I am a first Gulf War vet and have 63 aerial combat missions during my time in the Air Force. What I do expect is that if I am injured in combat that the government and country I pledged to serve does the right thing and help me recover and assist me in becoming a productive member of society again. At this time the government is doing a poor job in this respect.

Man I got so excited about this. I just saw that the bidding is up to 17,000 though. There is no way that I can raise that much money hahahaha. I still hadn’t even decided what fighter I wanted to corner either. There are so many great fighters. He would have to speak fluent english or else it would be awkard.

God could you imagine if the gsp/penn fight came to a draw, jesus that would suck.

Comment by Gord
2008-11-26 22:50:10

I hope not, Penn fans would concider that a win by a landslide. They think he wins when he loses, imagine if it was a draw. They would be saying BJ owned GSP.
