vinny, do u feel that bjj in mma is the best base to start with or something like wrestling or boxing/kickboxing
Do you regret saying those things about Nog's Bjj during TUF??? seeing that Nog wanted to train you after TUF was over but because of wat you said he disliked you and said he doesnt want to train you anymore
Vinny, do you think TUF is more about T.V ratings and the coaches, rather than a fighter's progression?
And how did you view your time on the show, did you improve as a fighter with the experience?
dear vinny, who do u think r the top 5 bjj artists in mma 2day?
What are some diff good or bad between how M1 is run, and the UFC, as far as backstage, or taking care of their fighters, medical etc.
Vinny... would you rather go to Bellator or Strikeforce and why?
how is the grappling training sessions with Fedor Emelianenko?
Is the ultimate goal to get another shot in the UFC, or are you happy working around them?
Vinny, what has been your most satisfying win/experience so far in MMA? And can you describe how it was to train under such a legend in Big Nog on TUF?
Vinny was on Team Mir so i dont think he trained with Big Nog
The only time i saw Vinny and Big Nog together was when they had a verbal argument.
Hey Vinny, what do you think about fighting in Russia, and what will it mean to you if you win the M-1 Light Heavyweight title?
why do you fight for M-1 i hate them
Have you started training bjj grappling with Fedor Emelianenko? I heard you were going to Holland with him
