Last seen at UFC 132 in July, UFC Octagon girl Brittney Palmer won’t be absent from UFC events much longer.

UFC president Dana White late Wednesday asked his Twitter followers if the UFC should bring back Palmer and within the hour, White had an answer.

“Done! The votes have been counted and Brittney Palmer is back.”

White told Heavy.com in August that Palmer never officially parted ways but pointed to Palmer’s artistic aspirations as a reason for her absence.

“Nothing happened with Brittney Palmer. It’s one of those situations where Brittney has moved onto other things. She’s living in L.A. now. She wants to be an artist and she’s going to art school.”

Arianny Celeste and Chandella Powell are the two other active UFC Octagon girls. During Palmer’s absence, model Vanessa Hanson was brought in once as a guest Octagon girl at UFC 136 as a prize for winning a Transworld Surf open model search.

Wednesday Morning MMA Link Club: Brock Lesnar Massacres His Enemies, Chael Sonnen Will Comfort Your Wife, ‘UFC on FOX’ Will Lose Money + More

“Let me ask you something: when you have a big project or plans for a big goal, do you let yourself get derailed by a whiny coworker that always finds an excuse to shovel work on someone else? NO! You do your work, you beat your obligations senseless, you shine like a pagan sun god, you make that whiny prat look foolish, you take their job, you laugh as they leave with a box of their effects, and you comfort their obviously unsatisfied wife by taking her out to dinner. I’m not cooling my heels just because Anderson’s are kicked up on the sofa.”

“It’s an investment in the company,” Dana White recently said. “In no way, shape or form do we come anywhere close to making our money back. You don’t go on free television and make your money. That’s just not how it works. We’re going to get smashed on this fight, but it’s an investment in the future of the business.”

“Kazushi Sakuraba and Wanderlei Silva fought against one another on three separate occasions in fights that should have never happened. The Japanese great never made it to the final bell against the heavy-handed striker in Silva. In the end, Silva was always the victor at the expense of Sakuraba, who always left their outings a bludgeoned mess, resulting in some of the worst performances of his career.”

“For two years I had to lie to myself and all of my fans. I had to get up every morning and say, ‘you feel good today,’ and I didn’t. I had the surgery, it’s out of my life and I’m back and that’s a damn good feeling for me and it’s bad for everybody else.”

Ask the Potato: Don Frye, Mustaches and Potato Sutra


It’s good to be back.

After days of anticipation, Ask the Potato is finally back and as credible as ever. The deepest thinkers among us have emerged with a series of questions- some of which even came in the form of complete sentences, with question marks and everything. The rest of you? Well, you at least tried to have a coherent thought, right? And even though the thought doesn’t count, you’re still special to us. So, without further delay, the triumphant return of Ask the Potato awaits after the jump.

Well, you at least tried to have a coherent thought, right? And even though the thought doesn’t count, you’re still special to us. So, without further delay, the triumphant return of Ask the Potato awaits after the jump.

El Famous Burrito asks:  Let’s say you and Don Frye are in an elevator together, and a whole bunch of women get on at the next floor. Frye rips a nasty fart and you notice, but when the ladies notice he blames it on you. Do you say anything, or just let it slide?

Answer:  We’d always just assumed that Don Frye’s gas was toxic, but we’ll honor the spirit of the question. Whether we man up or play the punk role comes down to one simple factor: How drunk is Don at the time? He doesn’t exactly have a great record in intoxicated elevator fights.

Dibs asks: Who would you rather have…Arianny or Brittney? That’s a tough choice. I think I would have to pick Brittney, she looks a little dirtier if you know what I mean.

Answer:  We’re here to answer questions, Dibs, not break hearts, but if you must know, it’s Brittney for two key reasons:

1) According to some sources, we’ve already screwed Arianny.

2) Sorry, but we’re not following up Tiki, no matter how much of a prude he may be.

RwilsonR asksIs Anderson Silva’s new obsession with Justin Bieber just him taking his Michael Jackson impersonation too far?

Answer:  We’ve heard that Silva is looking into acquiring the bones of Helio Gracie and a chimpanzee companion, so…maybe?

noahnasty asksWho’s gonna be UFC champion in every division, including the flywieghts, at the end of 2012?

Answer:  It’s easy to hold onto the belt a little bit longer when you’re sitting on the shelf, which was the M.O. for UFC champs this past year, but we’ve also got some established title holders that aren’t likely to be going anywhere for awhile. Assuming that each champ defends his belt at least twice next year, we see it playing out like this:

Joseph Benavidez, Dominick Cruz, Chad Mendes, Gil Melendez, GSP, Anderson Silva, Jon Jones, Junior Dos Santos.

Call your bookie and lock it in. Do it. No, seriously, do it.

KarmaAteMyCat asks: What color should I dye my mustache for Movember?

Answer: You should do half pink, half purple and just dare a motherfucker to call you gay.

skeletor asks: If each of the columnists on CP were sex positions who would be what. Please explain.

Answer: Ben doesn’t care about the position. He just wants to be fucked worse than he’s ever been fucked before. Mike Russell would be missionary because it’s the most classy, polite position, and he’s easily the most classy, polite person on this website. And judging by the way that Matt Kaplan shamelessly plows through liveblogs, he’d be the jackhammer.

Now, let’s let the rest of these jokers answer your question in their own words:

Danga: Without question The Alligator Fuckhouse.

ReX13: I’m “lazy dog“, but I didn’t think anyone would want to know.

Jason Moles: The Body Builder – Cuz that’s how I roll

Chris Colemon: Front dick, back dick, side check dick, all of that.

Seth Falvo: I’d be the Little Jack Hornher, because that’s just how you spell “classy”.

Well, that about wraps it up for this week. Tune in next week as we answer even more of your (hopefully at least kind of) MMA related questions.

Hot Potato: Brittney Palmer Returns in ‘Fitness Gurls’ Magazine [PHOTOS]

(Six more photos are in the gallery after the jump.)

We haven’t seen much from 2011 Hottest Women in MMA Grand Prix winner Brittney Palmer since she mysteriously disappeared from the UFC Octagon Girl rotation earlier this year. But according to a new feature in Fitness Gurls magazine — no, we’ve never heard of it either — Brittney is happily living and surfing in California, and recently finished a summer semester at art school. She tells FG about her art aspirations and new clothing line, and then there’s this little bit:

Q: I hear you’re coming back to the UFC one day, is that true?
A: I never left the UFC. Haha. UFC and I…I’ve been with the company for a really long time and we have a great relationship. I moved here and wanted to focus on art and they wanted to go in another direction for ring girls so it kinda happened at a good time. But it was never a situation of letting me go or me quitting. So the rumormill flies, but I’m still with the company…just taking a little time off to focus on art.

Brittney Palmer tweeted all these sexy work out pics of herself last week and it turns out it was for this video [above] for Gamma Labs and they want you to make a video and something about winning $10,000. I think. I didn’t have the volume on when watching this, but it’s probably worth it if you listen to what she has to say.
