Let's get straight to it and say that Randy did a phenomenal job at UFC 74 in defending his title. As a fan and a fellow Washingtonian I was happy to see
him win. But as for the title itself -- it still sits in my house. No one in UFC ever beat me for it, and as far as I am concerned, no one in the UFC can
be the heavyweight champion until they take that belt off of me in the cage.

At the post fight press conference, Dana White said ”there isn’t anyone in the world that can beat this guy” in reference to Randy. All this because Randy
beat a guy that had less than ten fights and only one noteworthy win? That’s not even a world championship level fight, let alone reason to proclaim the
winner as “unbeatable”. This comment was made even more ridiculous by the fact that I was standing right there, living proof that Randy Couture is definitely
beatable.

“Unbeatable”, Dana says. If he actually believes that, I’m more than willing to step into the cage and prove him wrong. It wouldn’t even have to be for
the belt. I already got the real belt. They can keep their pile of brass they purport as the UFC Heavyweight Title and put it on their next paper champ.

Now, before anyone gets all pissy about what he said you have to remember that Barnett is a student of Pro Wrestling. The man knows how to work an angle and that's what he's doing. In fact, it is the perfect angle because it isn't like what he says is untrue, nobody beat him for the UFC Heavyweight title. If someone were to cut a promo back on him, they may bring up why he lost the belt but lets not get a head of ourselves.

I love Randy Couture, but have to give this a thumbs up.
