kenny jackson at 145??? that dude was huge at 155
November 1st, 2010 at 8:02 am
That was a type-o. Kenny Jackson vs Paul Waite will be contested at 155 lbs. Sorry for the confusion.
November 1st, 2010 at 11:43 am
Terry Smith is going to destroy Angelo Carpenter-Smith hasn’t had a finish in his last 4 fights but look for it to be over quick. Carpenter is short and his cardio is garbage. If Terry comes ready to fight then this will be over before it starts. Calling Terry Smith by TKO (ref stoppage due to GnP) 1:46 of rd.1… How creepy would it be if I called it?
November 1st, 2010 at 6:41 pm
Can’t wait to put on a show.
November 7th, 2010 at 11:00 am
john cook is a flippin’ clown! this guys is trying to relive his childhood through his fighters, and now he’s gonna step in the cage? what a joke! he shows up at shows drunk and starting problems, preaching how awesome evolve is. what have they really produced? nothing! this guy is so unprofessional and up greg k’s ass, it’s ridiculous! hope he get’s f’ing smashed!
November 7th, 2010 at 9:17 pm
@ Your name, Cook is a blast to party with and in great shape for an old man, he’s probably gonna kick some ass – don’t be such a hater. Evolve has two fighters in the finals, not exactly nothing?
November 8th, 2010 at 9:33 am
ok buddy! john cook is an egotistical maniac. i’d be willing to bet my money that you are part of evolve. not hating, just speaking my opinion about a guy who is bad for the sport, and in it for the wrong reasons. that’s cool that you hang around with cook and stroke his ego. whatever floats your boat! john cook claims that evolve is a world class facility? who and what is world class about it?
November 8th, 2010 at 1:09 pm
Agreed! Cook is an asshole! Our way is hard cuz we like it hard baby!
November 8th, 2010 at 4:02 pm
Everyone can have their own opinion on Cook as a person or as a rep for the sport but Pires, Musser, and Madigan would all qualify as “world class” in their respective areas of expertise.
November 11th, 2010 at 12:15 am
I think Nutter MMA is where its at. those guys train hard and are the picture of how fighters should conduct themselves in and out of the ring.
November 12th, 2010 at 11:40 am
i think john cook should have stuck to personal training and stayed away from MMA. Madigan sucks as an mma fighter and pretty much runs the whole program. i think the only fighter there worth anything is Doug Kulbis. But he came from JAD. Poindexter and that Super Mario came from Pain Headquarters, and that female that 0-3. Evolve i believe will soon become extinct
November 13th, 2010 at 10:12 pm
your so what are you saying your going to start training at evolve
November 13th, 2010 at 10:16 pm
stand up or shut up, that is in the pudding
November 13th, 2010 at 10:18 pm
what are you talking about and as for cook he will crush this guy by wraping his legs around him and crushing his cup in his face ooooooo yeah that is wear its at
November 13th, 2010 at 10:20 pm
i hope cook wears spandies
November 13th, 2010 at 10:23 pm
cook is so strong and talented. at training i like it when he grabs and pounds me like a little boy that being bad oooo all i have to say is musk
November 13th, 2010 at 10:25 pm
for real john is a good man and i am only trying to bust his balls john good luck and kick this guys but
November 14th, 2010 at 4:13 am
I am rooting 100% for Terry!! He is a big boy and he can whoop some serious ass!! Good Luck Terry we’re rooting for ya!!
N & B
November 14th, 2010 at 5:15 pm
Funny Stuff! Again…the offer stands…come on down and train with us. Do I need to give you the address? And again, I put my real name.
November 15th, 2010 at 7:58 am
Didn’t Triple Threat close down? If so then how is Sandlin fighting for them still?
November 15th, 2010 at 8:34 am
Sorry Mr. Cook. I am going to have to turn down your offer. I wouldent even come if you paid me. Your just a man going through a midlife crisis, and your going to get your ass kicked. Just from the 2 seconds you appeared on the evolve commercial i can tell that you will probably get knocked out. you suck, your washed up and after you lose this fight im sure your gang will go elsewhere for so real training
November 15th, 2010 at 8:37 am
Black Spartan Kick Some Ass
November 15th, 2010 at 10:56 am
Wow if there is always someone hating on somebody. Must have a personal issue with you John or is jealous. He is probably a wannabe fighter or he would not be running his mouth so crazy. It takes a real man to step inside the cage regardless if you win or lose.
November 15th, 2010 at 11:02 am
I can’t wait to see my boy Kenny Jackson hurt something this Saturday. John Cook is going to do his thing regardless even at 40 years old the guy has balls to step in the cage. He is busting his ass everyday and this little petty talk is not even a bother it is all comical. I have trained at other gyms and Evolve does have a good group of guys and great trainers. They don’t have to sit here and express it because the proof is out there.
November 15th, 2010 at 12:06 pm
Your Name, this is starting to get ridiculous. I have been to many NAAFS, UMMAXX and XFS events and the one thing that is apparent is that Evolve fighters (win, loss or draw) always put up a great fight and give the fans a great show! They are well coached, well trained and always make any event a must see! I am excited to see Mr. Cook step in the cage this weekend and can guarentee that he will not dissapoint. Goodluck to all fighters this weekend, I CANT FREAKIN WAIT!!!!
November 15th, 2010 at 2:39 pm
Triple Threat, you need to take cooks balls out of your mouth. I am so tired of everyone talking about evolve. And i dont think that getting to the UFC after 4 pro fights and get TKOd in the first round makes you a UFC veteran. There are two of those at evolve (Madigan, Hendricks). Then Hendricks comes back and loses to Cujo. Cujo lost to Hawk and Hawk sucks. All evolve is doing is trying to build a gym on others failure by twisting words around. And ive seen the guys from Triple Threat fight. Not impressed. If you think Evolve so good why dont you train there instead of running your own failing gym
November 15th, 2010 at 5:05 pm
It’s too bad Cook is fighting a complete turd, bcuz I’d like to see him get KTFO’d! I’m sure that’s the way Greg and Nichole set it up. That’s just what they do for ppl they have good relationships with. ex.Strongstyle
November 15th, 2010 at 8:12 pm
*FACT* John Cook takes steroids.
November 15th, 2010 at 10:49 pm
Now this is just funny. He even threw in Big John AND Strongstyle! LOL!
And even if I get KTFO I still get to go home to my wonderful family and do what I love doing everyday. It is sad how hateful you are. You must be very unhappy inside. i wish I could help you.
November 15th, 2010 at 11:15 pm
LOL, Your name you are a fucking retard. Cook taking steroids? Yeah cause everyone on steroids loses 45lbs!!! Dumbass!
November 16th, 2010 at 2:49 am
Damn your name y u crackin on everyone do u even tran do u even fight? Probly not but john is a good guy I trained with them for a lil bit and either way john gunna put on a show
November 16th, 2010 at 12:32 pm
RACK BALL!!!
November 19th, 2010 at 8:45 am
John Cook is going to beat this dudes ass, evolve is the best gym.just accept it. dont hate because all the other gyms have dumb lazy pices of white trash who want to train 3 times a week and fuck their fat girl friends with no teeth on their days off
November 19th, 2010 at 1:14 pm
and the dude john is fighting(fredie) has one win aginst a d-bag who is 0-2. so congrats on that win freddie. any one could have beat him
November 21st, 2010 at 12:09 pm
So Your Name,
How’d John Cook do?*
.* I actually know just thought I would point out that a 40 year old got in there and acomplished his goals while you were sitting by a computer talking shit.
November 21st, 2010 at 3:43 pm
thanks to everyone for coming out and supporting me! Fred Davis is a tough SOB! Looking forward to “Your Name’s” comments for my next fight! LOL!
November 22nd, 2010 at 9:42 am
I’m looking forward to you not laying on your opponent for 3 rounds, and maybe, just maybe throwing some strikes while you’re on top. I was there and that fight should of been stood up numerous times due to inactivity cuz you weren’t doing shit! But I guess those are all rookie mistakes and you’ll fix them. Congratz on the win old man!
November 26th, 2010 at 8:02 am
You are absolutely right! I admit I was indecisive out there in side control. I wanted to work submissions and I lost focus on striking. I thought for sure the ref was going to stand it up a few times but I knew if I stayed in a dominant position it would be tough. At the end of the second I took 3 hard shots to the back of the head and was a little out of it for the better part of the third round. I was also a little nervous. I had so many people there I had to win. That may have caused me to not take as many chances as I could have. I did have his back, north south, and mount twice. Remember too…I am only two years into MMMA. I am a strength and conditioning coach! I am working hard on my striking. Maybe next year I will stand and bang! Already getting other old timers challenging me! I will be back! Thanks for all the fun. I will do better next time to put on a show. Lol
