Dan Henderson managed to sum up the UFC's contract offer to Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou in one word. That word - insulting. Sokoudjou is coming off two stunning knockouts of top PRIDE Light Heavyweight fighters Ricardo Arona and Antonio Rogerio Nogueira. Both of these title contenders lasted a combined 2 minutes and 22 seconds in the ring with Sokoudjou
Henderson has been fielding contract offers for his Team Quest teammate due to his long experience in MMA. With regards to Dan’s statement, Rameau stated “Dan Henderson and Ryan Parsons have been doing business for over ten years and they know what my value is in the fighting business. All I care about in the fight business is where I'm going to fight right now. I trust them to do what they think is best for me business-wise for me to make the most money out of my skills."
UFC is only one MMA promotion currently pursuing Sokoudjou. Both K-1, Bodog and EliteXC are actively pursing him to fight in their orgranizations. Reameau had signed a 4 fight contract with PRIDE. He completed 2 of those fights before UFC bought out PRIDE, leaving him as a free agent to field offers from any MMA organization.
Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou is still unsigned and will continue to field offers until he finds one that properly reflects his level of talent. Rumors have surfaced about a contract signing EliteXC but no official statement has been made. For now, we will have to wait to see this top talent fighter in a cage or ring.

Rampage Jackson Vs Wanderlei Silva 3, Why Rampage Will Lose Again (Popularity:  ): Rampage Jackson is an infighter and always will be.
If you watch his knockout of Chuck Liddell it was from close range (punching range and closer). If you look at their first fight (Chuck and Rampage’s) you’ll see Rampage dominate Chuck by smothering him with this inside fighting ability. This is why he’ll lose (again) to Wanderlei Silva.
Wanderlei Silva has a Thai clinch that is deadly. From inside (where the fight ...
What Went Wrong With Philippe Nover's Ultimate Fighter Finale Fight (Popularity: ): Let me just say this to start out, this isn’t necessarily just his fault. It’s fault of many Jeet Kune Do practioners and around the country. In Jeet Kune Do, we talk about four ranges of fighting: punching, kicking, trapping, and grappling. Technically wrestling falls in-between trapping and grappling and is both at the same time. That’s what we call a subsection of a range. Unfortunately, it’s an area that ...
Why St Pierre Dominated Matt Hughes in Their 3rd Fight (Popularity: ): St. Pierre's secret weapon against Matt Hughes was a submission chain. It was a sweet one in fact. Matt never had a chance, because St. Pierre had an interesting business model for fighting. Here it is.
I crack Matt in the face, and when he's woozy. I'll catch him in a sub, and then we defends that one, I'll wrap him in another.
In a sub chain, if you don't catch one, ...
Doug Wilson and Sparring (Popularity: ): I have only recently come across the episode on the history channel that shows two MMA fighters visiting, training and at the last minute sparring with a couple of our own shihan. I have also read with interest the many posts regarding the episode - some positive and some a direct disrespect for Doug and the other shihan.
Perhaps one thing that is forgotten is that the match towards the end ...
Disappearing is Harder Than You Think (Popularity: ): Now the title of this post will no doubt create much controversy, but what i am talking about is the ability to remain undetected whilst in the heat of battle or training. To disappear in fact does not necessarily mean exploding in a puff of smoke but more understanding timing and distance to make oneself invisible using ninpo Taijutsu. Perhaps a better way to explain this is to be able ...
