    So the big superstar wants to pad his record with easy opponents? I (Myles Price) have offered to fight him on Cage Contender (20th October) but he wont take it. The reasons behind this Im guessing are (take your choice),

    (A) He just wants an easy comeback fight as he has been out since his TUF trials in MARCH 2012 (My last fight was was in August 2011 at Clan Wars)
    (B) Or he feels that he just isn't good enough to fight me.

    Either choice it's a cop out and something that seems to be recent trend with some fighter's building big records up against people that don't warrant a real challenge or money's worth for paying fight fans.

    Ali I had more respect for you than this and considering that you are still willing to fight on the card dont you think you should step up and take the challenge and stop trying to take easy opponents cos frankly its a real joke - Give the fans what they want and take the fight.

    Magic Myles Price

    I'd totally agree with this. I'v just been looking at both your records on Sherdog/the guys you have fought and I reckon you lads would make for a great fight and one that I'd personally pay to see.

    "Magic" Myles Price vs Ali "Insane" McClean

    Lets make it happen, take the fight Ali.:D

    Just to clarify, We offered this fight to Ali and his camp after Mark Palmer withdrew from his with with Myles due to injury.

    In our opinion it is a pretty well matched bout with both fighters coming off a sizeable break from MMA Competition.

    We would still very much like this fight to happen at CC15

    as call out goes its very polite but really? professional fighters calling each other out

    it contributes to peoples low opinion of mma imo but i digress
    it would make a great fight

    It's a fight I would love to see happen. How about throwing in normy for a triple threat match now that would shift tickets John

    It's great for the fans though. Building up a bit of tension in the lead up to a fight is always good.
    I hate it when a fighter comes on here though and just slags off another fighter in the hopes of getting a match set up. I'd rather it's done along the lines of this thread.
    But ya can't beat a bit of smack talk every now and then. If even just to build a bit of excitement.

    Beats having amateur fighters call each other out I suppose. :rolleyes:

    No it doesn't.

    If people have a low opinion of MMA it is because they are uninformed of what the sport is really all about, not because they heard some dude challenging someone to step up and fight.

    Re-read the call-out and honestly tell me how it would cause someone to have a lower opinion of the sport.
