Thomas Gerbasi, UFC - If you're looking for pre-fight trash talk from Jim Miller, you've come to the wrong place and the wrong guy. But just because he won't babble on about what he's going to do to Mac Danzig at UFC 100 on July 11th doesn't mean that he's not confident about his abilities or his place among the top prospects in the lightweight division. It's just that where he comes from, all the talk in the world won't help you when it's time to fight.

Michael DiSanto, UFC - Michael Bisping made no bones about the fact that he wanted Dan Henderson to defeat Rich Franklin when the two fought to determine who would coach opposite Bisping during the ninth season of The Ultimate Fighter. He has openly questioned Hendo's age and doesn't shy away from the fact that he wants to be the first man to ever knock out the all-time great.Those beliefs are great. But that is the sort of bulletin board material that a fighter might want to keep to himself in the days and weeks leading up to the fight. Hendo has enough motivation as it is, since Bisping clearly got under his skin during the taping of TUF. Toss in the extra motivation of a trash-talking opponent and he becomes borderline scary.

Thomas Gerbasi, UFC - "Come on Shannon."The first time Shannon Gugerty heard Spencer Fisher talking to him, he almost couldn't believe it. There was no bad blood between the two lightweights before their UFC 90 bout in Illinois last October, so there wouldn't have been any reason for the two not to talk, but it was 30 seconds into their fight that Fisher decided to start up a conversation after Gugerty took him to the mat.

Thomas Gerbasi, UFC - Being referred to as a veteran of the fight game at the age of 24 may make him "feel old", but there's no question that Jake O'Brien has seen plenty in his two and half year career in the Octagon. From dizzying highs to crippling lows and everything in between, O'Brien enters his UFC 100 bout with Jon Jones as a fighter who has been the hot prospect, been the young gun with the "0" at the end of his record, and found out that there is no such thing as invincible - at least not in this game.
