Still a bad girl

Go Yankees!

-Mike

Mike is not the kind of guy to put others down nor to place blame or make excuses for not giving 100%,
however…....... we all have to agree,weather it’s Mike Jeremy,Luke….....all 32 guys not just the 16 worked there asses off to make it to the show,sadley they pulled a fast one on 16 poor guys whom thought they made it,quit there jobs, gave up things one would never because they made the show,(or so they thought)to be bitch slapped by Dana…... set up and sent home within the first 48 hours…not at all nice…....but it is what it is….and it made for great tv!!!
and I am sure it is very disurning for all these guys,what they have given to be where they are…..to have there sweat and pain not even be aknowlaged and portrayed in a way to look lesser than what they actully are….

I see you care about Luke and can relate!!! Much respect there to you!!!!I get it!!!

Unfortunatley there will only be one standing at the end so,all will fall and only one can win…. they all have given more than any viewer will ever imagine or comprehend….
I can’t stand the mma fan who watches fights and talks trash as if they were in the ring and they know best..So disrespectful
I see your more than that and your words came from the heart….got it!!!!!!!!
I wish Luke luck…and hope he goes far….
I hope you don’t eat your own words if he losses,and some stupid fight fan talks trash about him if he loses….......
all the glitz and glam of tv isn’t as great as it seems….
as Mike started his blog the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat…..that’s what makes great mma …...............
win or loose I will say again..all these guys are awsome,and anyone who has anything less to say is an idiot…....
Dawn,now that I know your family…or a caring friend of a fighter,I know you get it!! So simply..You do have my respect! I wish Luke luck…...but…...I hope Mike comes back…....if not…. in the fashion of a true mma fan.
GO Team Rampage!!!
and Dawn..I don’t mean that in disrespect.it’s all for the sake of lovin the sport and we can BOTH appreciate that!!!

We have only gotten one week in, Luke might end up saying something that the producers portray one way, and he is going to get the same kind of flack that Mikes getting right now. You never know.

Will someone explain to me, what the difference between this and any fighter doing the pre-fight hype thing?

Mike- You work your ass off for people to get their moneys worth each and every time you step into the public spotlight. There is nothing more that can be said, other then what I have said before.

Looking foward to episode 4

The bad girl

I’m back from UFC 83 and what an amazing event!!! Montreal is beautiful and the fans are incredible! Check out my website www.MikeDolceMMA.com mid-week for a full report and behind the scenes video.

After reading your comments, I have to ask, “What did I say that was so bad or disrespectful?”

Let me fill you in.

When asked by the production team, “Who is the weakest fighter on Team Forrest?”

I replied in full, “I can’t really say. I have just met most of these guys and haven’t even had a chance to train with my own team yet, let alone scout out Team Forrest. We all fought and won to get in the house, so I’d say we are all pretty tough guys, but since Forrest Griffin picked Luke last and to answer your question…I’D SAY LUKE ZACHRICH IS THE WEAKEST LINK.”

Well, guess what part of that statement made it to your living room???

Just another example of compelling reality television.

Thank you all for caring enough to watch the show and support the sport.

Like me of not, I’m working my ass off to make sure you get your money’s worth!

Can’t wait for episode 4!

-Mike

Mike is not going to gain many fans by trash talking. When he negatively critiques people, he needs to realize that he is making comments about someone’s child, friend, partner, etc… He is going to make people angry when he does this. People who care about Luke took this VERY personally! This is going to leave Mike open for attack by the people who care about the person he is negative toward. Once he makes a mistake, people (like me) will throw it up in his face because, to be honest, Luke is the better man and would never say anything negative toward him. I feel that Mike and Jeremy had to say things about Luke to make themselves look better. Lets face it, Luke has it ALL!!! Mike and Jeremy, well, they are missing several pieces!

I am sure things happen and you do not always feel well when you fight. People fight when they are sick and when they have injuries. People also give up alot to fight. Don’t use sickness, injuries, and sacrafice in order to make yourself look better. It only makes you look weak. This is what you chose to do in life, so there will naturally be sacrafices. Don’t make yourself out to be a martyr. I am sure other men have given up more and have been through worse to get to where they are today.

Mary, you can attack me all you want. You oviously care about Mike and I respect you for that. I obviously care about Luke so you should respect that too.

Now, I just cannot wait to see Luke fight. I want to see if he wins his first fight. Will you be eating your words Mike?
