DC wasn't scared to fight him the first time. Does Stipe think that the first round KO win reduced DC's confidence?
No, he is just trying to drum up (pun intended) a rematch. I highly doubt he really believes DC is scared.
It's kind of sad. Before this fight, he was a fighters fighter, a guy who a offed at doing media and building his brand or his name up, a guy who just wanted to fight the best and prove his worth by fighting.
Now that he's lost, it's back fired on him. He doesn't have the pull in the MMA world to get that rematch, so his attempt to play the social networking/media game riggt now isn't going to cut it. He should have tried to do it earlier when he was a champ, so that he'd have a huge fanbase to support him in times like this, but he didn't.
I'd rather see Stipe just go back to not trying to hype up his fights and just fight.

His attempt to play the social networking/media game right now asa non champ that got brutally knocked out isn't going to cut it.
