    Little Nog's back injury must be pretty severe for them to give Shogun a new opponent all together.

    Re: UFC on FSO 1: Shogun vs. Sonnen (Aug/17)

    Massachusetts has some crazy rule where to fight on an MMA card you need a social security number. This is putting the card on the ropes since there are so many international fighters on the show.

    Re: UFC on FSO 1: Shogun vs. Sonnen (Aug/17)

    Is this something new? Cause if massachusetts has been like this for awhile the blame falls on the ufc for bungling the card. Should have had it at another venue if problems were gonna happen

    Re: UFC on FSO 1: Shogun vs. Sonnen (Aug/17)

    "The show will definitely be taking place," said Ratner, who noted he was working on the paperwork issue that the newspaper wrote about. He was trying to get all fighters on the show, who are not American citizens, social security numbers before the show takes place.

    Ratner said that no other state requires fighters who are not American citizens to have social security numbers, and the UFC was not required to get them for non-citizens when it first ran an event in Boston in 2010.


    To get a social security number, a fighter must have a visa, which many of he foreign fighters on the card already have. All fighters would have needed visas before fight time, but the UFC's immigration department is going to have to speed up the process for the few that don't. Fighters have to have visas for 10 days before they can get a Social Security number.

    Re: UFC on FSO 1: Shogun vs. Sonnen (Aug/17)

    speeds, how do you see Sonnen/Shogun going down?

    I think if Shogun is to win, he has to do it in the first two rounds or so, especially with the gas tank he has been showing lately. Sonnen has shown he can be rocked on the feet and we all know he can be submitted. Shogun is gonna have to catch him in a limb submission or a choke or blitz him with strikes. If it goes to the 3rd and beyond, I think with Shogun's poor gas tank and Sonnen's constant pressure, Sonnen will grind out a UD.

    Yep, that's Massachusetts for you. I was thinking of picking up tickets, and it looks like a good card, but now I'm not so sure.

    Not really sure. Sonnen didn't look like a world beater against Bisping. Shogun's a more dynamic fighter than Bisping but his TDD isn't as good. I agree that a longer fight seems to favor Sonnen.

    These Americans replacing foreigners might have something to do with the SSN issue. White says Ring was pulled because of it.

    Decent fights so far, but FS1 just won't show up for me on TV. Gotta stream this one til they work out the kinks I guess.
