   Can you say, "bye bye UFC contract?"

   And I'm actually not opposed to competent adults having access to steroids under a doctor's supervision. But this smacks of "roid rage." If so, just goes to demonstrate why we still do need government supervision of controlled substances.

   The man is history. The sport has to be outlawed. It nothing but brutality for money. It breeds violence against the everyday man (this term man is inclusive of women so shut up) and shows our complete lack of morality.

   wow, Shouldn't he be charged with Battery with a Deadly Weapon. He fights UFC, which means he hold at least one if not multiple black belts.

   I think the nurses should sue UFC and this fighter. And where was the Armed Security that i always see running around St. Rose? He would have been so Tased if I was there. I wouldn't have stopped till I saw his hair smoking.

   Come on people, Nurses are some of the best people in the world. They heal and help and comfort. For some ahole to punch them is not only wrong, but he deserves some shock treatment.

   As far as MMA and UFC fighting goes, I have met many fighters who are the nicest guys around. This one fighter or should I say chicken, should detract from the sport or the dedication to Mixed Martial Arts that so many fights have.

   Well, it was only a matter of time before these meatheads started ranting "do you know who I am" and throwing punches at people who dared say "no".

    This little punk threatening nurses who are trying to help him. If he'd slapped my girl I'd beat the life out of him.

    To KC7KFN

    What are you talking about? Why is the UFC responsible for this jerks actions? Should your employer be sued if you do some thing wrong on your own time? No, only an idiot would think otherwise. Is Junie even under contract? I seen him on the Ultimate Fighter, but not since then. On that show he had anger issues & was a complete idiot. The article said he was in for a possible O.D. which may explain his anger not roids like some other blogger mentioned. If you seen this guy you would not think he was n roids. He is a jerk who should go to jail & if the nurses feel they want to sue for his actions only Junie should be sued as he did the deed not the UFC.

    The biggest defender of these people, like this guy, is the local talk radio guy who defended that couple involved in the murder of their "assistant" Fire in the Desert?? Titus???

    He says these freaks don't use roids, etc. give me a break.

    You have a natural alliance between the dysfunctional talk radio freaks, Glen Beck Limpaugh, etc and the ultimate fighters and their substance abuse patterns.
    This is serious because health-care workers are being attacked more and more.

    To all you people out there, relax, take a sip of your favorite drink, and think logically.
