UFC

WrestlingRevealed.com has learned that TNA and UFC have reached an agreement on a marketing deal.

TNA will be involved in promoting the upcoming UFC fight featuring Brock Lesnar. The deal makes quite a bit of sense in that a lot of TNA’s fan base will be curious about seeing Brock Lesnar in a UFC match. That should help spark some additional pay per view buys for UFC.

No word yet on what TNA will be receiving from this deal. UFC might be hesitant to promote professional wrestling since they want to separate themselves from it. TNA could just be receiving cash for the deal.

Kind of interesting that UFC didn’t reach a deal with WWE. That would definitely give them a boost in pay per view buys, especially considering Brock Lesnar was a former WWE champion.

Brock Lesnar

WrestlingRevealed.com has learned that Tim Sylvia has publicly called Brock Lesnar a baby.

Tim Sylvia recently gave an interview to ESPN Radio, and he had the following to say.

“I don’t think he’s going to have a future in MMA. I think Frank Mir’s going to beat him. I’ve trained with Brock (Lesnar). I think Frank Mir is going to submit him. He’s a baby. Don’t kick him because he’ll get hurt. He’s a hell of a wrestler, man. The guy can wrestle and he’s strong. He can’t punch, and he can’t get kicked. And, he don’t know how to kick. He can only go straight forward. I think Frank Mir will submit him.”

- Tim Sylvia

Tim Sylvia has trained with Brock Lesnar in the past, so he does know a thing or two. His words are a bit harsh, though, so it’s possible that some sort of friction has occurred between the two.

This bit of news will be welcomed by a lot of selfish wrestling fans who hope that he fails so they can see him coming back to wrestling. No one should be rooting for him to fail. He chose to leave wrestling, so let him.
