NFL'S RAY LEWIS IN TALKS TO JOIN THE UFC (ULTIMATE FIGHTING CHAMPIONSHIP)


 







February 29, 2008. First Floyd Mayweather signs with the WWE, now MediaTakeOut.com is hearing whispers that NFL's Ray Lewis is close to signing on to the Ultimate Fighting Championship mixed martial arts league.

According to a person who works at U.F.C., the Baltimore Ravens star linebacker and the league have been negotiating for months and are close to closing the deal. The insider told MediaTakeOut.com, "Ray Lewis was an All-American wrestler in high school, and he's just an all around bad a**. He'll fit in perfectly here."

And the insider claims that the deal wouldn't interfere with Ray's NFL career. He explained to MediaTakeOut.con, "We're not looking to sign him on full-time, just a match or two a year - and he can handpick the opponent ... He has such a big name that it will do wonders for the sport."

    Ha Ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!, but really he is to old to do MMA, you can't just decide your tough & wanna join the UFC. If Brock Lesnar lost in his UFC match, there is no way Ray Lewis will win, cuz Brock would kill him.

    Man, Ray vs. Kimbo would be ridiculous! I would mos def pay to see that one! Kimbo would probably beat da breaks off Ray azz but I'd still pay to see them get down!

    I don't blame Ray for doing this! Money May is getting 20 mil to just run around the ring and throw bogus azz punches!...shyyyyyttttt! Ray would be a fool not to!

    You all do understand that he has a NFL contract that pays him millions and prevents him from doing thing that could hurt him?

    Ray Lewis joining the UFC is just as real as Eminem joining the WWE. Drew Peterson is more believeable than some of MTO stories.

    People Kimbo is NOT part of UFC. Kimbo can only fight because he as a power punch other then that thats it. Thats not what UFC is about.
    Georges St-Pierre now thats a UFC fighter sorry HUGH fan of MMA & UFC.

    Ray's too talented and fine for this. Besides, he's slated to become a studio guy when he hangs up his cleats.

    Ray...DON'T DO IT!

    Brock Lesnar, Johnny Morton....All these cats who think they can come in to MMA and represent all end up tapping out or getting knocked the fcuk out...You have to have years of specialized fighting experience to do well in the octagon.

    How will this not affect his NFL career, I mean Pacman could barely do anything in TNA let alone wrestle, I don't even think NFL players are allowed on motorcycles. Where yall get this [EXPLETIVE] from?

    Ray Lewis is a monster on the field, and an all-round intimidating guy in real life. I think he'd be able to hold his own.

    Kimbo vs. Ray Lewis would be a good fight, but if Ray Lewis gets Kimbo on his back, it's game over.

    [EXPLETIVE] DUMBASSES!!! KIMBO DOES NOT AND CAN NOT FIGHT IN THE UFC, HE IS THE FRANCHISE FIGHTER OF ELITE XC, SO RAY WOULD NOT FIGHT HIM, MAYBE BROCK, OR TIM SYLVIA, NOT KIMBO, JUST BECAUSE THE ONLY FIGHTER YOU KNOW IS FROM THE HOOD, DON'T MEAN HE IS THE ONLY ONE, TRY LOOKING AT RAMPAGE JACKSON IF YOU WANNA SEE A REAL THUGGED OUT FIGHTER AND IS THE UFC CHAMP!!
     

    stinka
    Ray really thinks he's a tough guy. That poser would get his a## kicked by those dudes, especially KIMBO!
     

    stinka
    kimbo is not UFC? Oh well....it would have been nice to see big mouth Ray get destroyed.

    I never liked him after his friends shooting incident I hope they beat him to a pulp!

    Well I guess he would after the incident that happened in Buckhead in Atlanta a few years ago.
     

    jjjones
    He betta be careful. If he fight Kimbo he gon be walking around like Muhammad Ali.

    "it's a bullshit story" is how Dana White, UFC President termed this [SPAM] "exclusive". Seriously, can you guys stop making up stories completely. You act like you're worried about people stealing your stories without giving you credit, but if you have any journalistic integrity you will stop making up stories and print retractions when you print stuff that lacks any truth whatsoever.
