UFC 100 is in the books and what an event it was. A lot of good fights and a heck of a show from Brock Lesnar. I almost feel bad for all the other guys. As well as they may have performed, UFC 100 will be in the books with Brock as the major story. [...]
I know a lot of folks are excited about Mir – Lesnar II, but in reality the most exciting fights of the night will be the other two major fights on this card. GSP vs. Alves is going to be one heck of a fight, but I certainly look forward to Bisping vs. Henderson. It’s [...]
Brock Lesnar may be a big draw. He may be the World heavyweight champion of the UFC. But even Brock can’t stay relevant if he loses for the 2nd time to Frank Mir at UFC 100. It’s true that Brock had Mir hurt in the first fight and the ref made a big mistake, but [...]
Talk about an embarrassment. An overweight Tim Sylvia made Roy Mercer look like Fedor on steroids. He lost in less than 10 seconds, and now is firmly out of the elite MMA heavyweights group. In MMA, anyone has a punchers chance. But I still don’t understand why Tim took this fight. Now he has no [...]
It’s a shame that it took Arlovski a few fights to realize MMA is not boxing but better late than never. Andrei may have lost his shot at getting back at Fedor by getting knocked out by Brett Rogers, but thinks can change quickly in the world of MMA. Maybe a fight with the loser [...]
Rashad may not be popular against the fans, but he certainly showed that what most of us have thought about him was certainly true. In his post Machida interview, Evans talked about how he felt uncomfortable as a champ and how he underestimated Machida. By listening to him, you may think that he is actually [...]
Urijah Faber is one of the most talented fighters in the world. He has dominated his weight class and has had everyone’s number except Mike Brown. Mike Brown was an underdog against Faber in their first fight, but he literally “smashed” Faber. And I have not seen anything seen to suggest that he won’t do [...]
Quentin Jackson certainly knows how to entertain. And he is still upset about Rashad Evan getting in his face after the fight with Jardine. Jackson took time to bash fans who call him scared of Machida. He also took a shot at Evans for talking during the fight with Machida. Jackson is not “scared of [...]
Machida proved he is the man to beat in the UFC by blowing away a game Rashad Evans. Poor Evans couldn’t touch Machida to save his life. He did land a couple of punches on Machida, and even that was surprising. But Evans was knocked down in the first round and knocked out cold in [...]
Time for predictions and my response to Mr. Cofield for picking Evans over Machida. The main event is going to be certainly exciting. You have someone who everyone love’s to hate and a guy who has bored people to death in a few of his fights just to come back and dish out a knock [...]
When you’ve got evidence like this, it’s hard to argue! Sorry Rashard, but it’d be tough to catch Machida and if you do, I suspect he has a good chin.
UFC 98 is finally here, and we are going to get to see the dream match-up between the guy who everyone loves to hate (Rashad Evans) and a Karate master who people want to see get more exciting. Nobody has been able to hit Machida, so it’d be interesting to see whether Rashad can hit [...]
Can it? Most people think so except Machida. Machida wants to entertain and if Evans comes to fight, we will be getting a nice fight. But I do think Evans will be careful with Machida which means we may need Machida to put it. I personally would love to see an entertaining fight but I [...]
Rashad Evans may be an undefeated MMA fighter, but he is certainly among the most classless individuals in the sport of MMA. His making fun of Liddell while he was knocked out will always haunt him, and it’s no wonder the crowd loves to hate this guy. And grabbing his private parts during his fight [...]
So I didn’t think much of Fedor’s victory over Aoki in their exhibition match, but Fedor showed some nifty moves and proved that he can be a handful for someone who’s not great in Jujitsu. For folks who think a Lesnar or Carwin can beat Fedor, they need to knock him out. One thing is [...]
Anderson Silva wants a fight? Dana White is giving it to him. Anderson Silva will get his first crack at an elite light heavyweight in Forrest Griffin. Forrest is certainly a capable fighter, but I doubt he can beat Anderson. Anderson is the best striker in the sport, and he will be tough to stop. [...]
UFC 97 started with so much promise but Anderson Silva managed to ruin the main event yet again. I am not sure what’s wrong with Silva, but he does look like someone who’s making a point to Dana White. As you know, Dana didn’t let Anderson fight with Roy Jones, and Anderson is maybe retaliating [...]
Don’t you love it when Anderson Silva lays the smack down on his opponents. Now he is getting good at selling fights too. At least he is starting to. Silva is one of the best fighters in the world but doesn’t have the star power of a Lesnar or Couture. But if he keeps this [...]
Liddell vs. Rua is going to be the point of no return for both fighters. Liddell has lost 3 out his last 4 fights. And Rua couldn’t even put away Coleman until the veteran was too tired to stand up. The loser of this fight will probably have to settle for tomato cans in the [...]
Dana White has become the center of an unwanted storm in the MMA world these days. The sharks are out to get him, and they pounced on a comment that he made about a reporter. While I don’t condone what Dana said (using slurs), I still don’t think it’s justified to blame the guy for [...]
Cung Le is still without a fight, but of course he is a busy man. He is filming his movies and waiting for Frank Shamrock to call him out. That fight is going to be exciting especially after what happened in their first fight. So let’s hope Frank can take care of Diaz.
Talk about talking smack. Jason Guida pretty much questioned everything Bobby Lashley has done in their press conference to maybe get in his head. I don’t think it was a good idea. Bobby was close to snapping and maybe ripping his head off. I guess he’ll get his chance tomorrow.
Frank Mir is one of the cockiest fighters I have ever seen in the Octagon. He may look like a nice guy, but he does have his arrogant side. And the funny thing is, he never ceases to amaze me with his outrageous comments. He has talked about in the past about breaking people’s legs [...]
Cung Le is one of the top MMA fighters in the world. It just happens that he managed to beat Frank Shamrock in a fight and made an even bigger name for himself. Now Cung Le has gone hollywood and is going to be on Tekken and a few other upcoming movies. Now, he wants [...]
I am not sure what to think of this upcoming fight. I do believe that Jackson deserved to get a title shot as he was the holder and defended it more than once. But he had to go through Silva and has to beat Jardine to get a shot at Rashad. Having said that, Jackson [...]
UFC 95 is finally over, and we can actually think about better, more exciting events. I wasn’t really impressed with the card, but Damien really put on a show by beating Sonnen so easily. And Josh losing was really surprising. I guess with Penn talking smack about GSP, we will have enough to keep us [...]
The latest episode of MMA Live is up on ESPN. Sanchez was on the show and he talked about how he is better off at 155. He thinks he is going to be bigger and faster. Now, I like Sanchez and he is the firm favorite over the overrated Joe Daddy. But he should not [...]
James Thomspon, the guy who almost choked out Kimbo Slice before having his ear exploded, had a wild night in Canada. The guys at MMA FanHouse reported the crazy event that took place in Montreal. It seems Steve Bosse and James Thompson had decided before the fight to keep things stand up. Well, James decided [...]
What a fight. So much for Machida being boring. I know a lot of guys wanted to see BJ vs. GSP, but this was the fight I was most interested about, and what a finish. The video may be up for just a few moments so watch it as soon as you can.
Can anyone stop [...]
Tim Sylvia was at the top of the world. He was with a puncher’s chance of upsetting Fedor. He was dubbed as the toughest guy Fedor had yet to face. But after that under one minute destruction by Fedor, he was off the 2nd Affliction card. Now, if Affliction 3 happens, Tim will probably get [...]
I’ve got to admit, Dana White has a great personality as a video-blogger. I am pretty sure this guy would’ve been a superstar in the blogging world if he was not the president of the UFC. Of course, he hates us bloggers but that doesn’t mean we don’t love him back
Dana is at [...]
MMA Live is back. This latest episode was more about UFC 93 and affiliction. The good news for ESPN is that they will do another UFC 91 event coverage for UFC 94. But Affliction is the show that everyone is talking about this week. Can Fedor really lose to Andrei? I really don’t think so, [...]
Rich Franklin is one of the top MMA artists in the world. At the same time, he has had too many heartbreaks in his career. His losses to Anderson Silva were devastating. Just as he was getting ready to commit to the 205 division, he loses a tough decision to Henderson. But perhaps his most [...]
Randy Couture’s pick for the UFC 94 mega fight is finally known. It’s GSP. Randy is one of the great guys in our sport, and he has done so much, but his picks often leave something to be desired. Now, I am not pulling for Penn, but I don’t think the choice is quite as [...]
Talk about not knowing what you want. Michael Bisping seems to be unsure who he wants to face next. He talks about wanting to fight Rich Franklin but then talks about Henderson being his favorite fight. I do think that Dan Henderson would be a better match up for Bisping as Franklin would beat Bisping [...]
The UFC hype machine is in action again, trying to hype up the highly anticipated Penn – GSP fight even more. BJ is talking a lot of crap before this fight, but I hope he can actually back it up and lose in a respectable fashion. I think GSP will probably knock him out but [...]
Affliction 2 is finally upon us, and we are going to see some very good fights. I really don’t mind seeing Affliction succeed, but the product has a long way to go to get to the level of the UFC. My pick? Fedor. I haven’t seen anything from Arlovski that Fedor can’t nullify. They said [...]
What a night it was last night. I guess the happiest person in the world right now would be Brock Lesnar who wanted Frank Mir all along. But I was shocked to see Nog do nothing for the whole fight and get knocked out by Frank Mir. See the video for yourself. Can’t promise it [...]
Randy Couture shows why he has a great future as a commentator in the MMA world. He breaks down the fights for the UFC 92. I still think Rashad will beat Griffin, and I pick Jackson over Silva. Can I go 0-2?
Forrest Griffin, the light heavyweight champ, is one of the coolest guys in the sport. He is honest about his will to fight and make money, and he doesn’t seem to have any hesitance to fight friends in the Octagon. Now, he claims that fighting is so much fun folks need to jump in if [...]
Forrest Griffin is loved by MMA fans around the world, but he is facing some bad dude in Sugar Evans. Sugar Evans is a guy who can’t seem to get a break from the fans, but he was certainly exciting in knocking out Chuck. Now, Forrest is preparing for Rashad, and while folks are giving [...]
Affliction press conference is up and Tito is certainly good on the microphone. Now, I got to say that Tito stumbled a couple of time with his lines, but I guess Tito is just a figher not a commentator. I wonder how much he is getting paid. Maybe he is getting more money for doing [...]
An interesting video in which the Fedor folks talk about how they want to meet Dana White, and the invitation is for him to go to Fedor’s hometown for talks. But the whole argument is very stupid. Why would Dana White want to hire Fedor and be stuck with M1 Global in the process. It’s [...]
What do Kimbo and Palin have in common? They both are iconic and they both have the IQ of a retarded rat. But the jury is still out on Palin as there is no real evidence on her. But Kimbo simply have no excuse for calling Japan a city. Now here is the thing. If [...]
Here is a recent interview with Bill Goldberg, one of the most popular pro wrestlers in history. Bill talks about his match against Brock Lesnar and how both of them felt dissed by the WWE. Now, I normally don’t pay too much attention to interviews by pro wrestlers, but Goldberg proves what we all have [...]
Dan Henderson was very clear about who he thought would win the fight between Lesnar and Couture. Now that his pick has lost, he has taken upon himself to rip into Lesnar and claim him to be diminishing the title. Here is a thought: why not have Dan fight Lesnar to see if he can [...]
Latest episode of MMA live is in the books and we get to see an interesting discussion about Couture and Liddell fighting in Germany for UFC 99. I personally don’t see anything good about a 4th fight between these two legends. There are so many good match ups that can be put together, so why [...]
One of the not so good MMA Live’s in memory. The John Fitch controversy obviously was not covered in this episode. Also, we learn now that Carwin won’t be facing Gonzaga, which I think is ridiculous. Shane is getting tomato cans whereas Lesnar is getting former and current champs. But the good news is that [...]
I thought the main event at UFC 91 was pretty good but it turned out fans had a more exciting fight after the fight was finished and Lesnar was announced as the new champ. Man! This fight among fans was really serious. I almost felt bad for the lady who got caught in the middle [...]
Randy Couture and his wife belittled Brock before the fight. Randy talked about how he wanted to avoid “peeing” in his pants before his first big fight. Kim Couture called Lesnar “glory hungry” and a rookie who is going to get it from the veteran. But when it was all said and done, Lesnar was [...]
Another awesome video by Dana White. He really does pre-event coverages justice with his vlogs. The best question was asked when Kenny was asked about his potential role as Randy’s son in the next scorpion king. Priceless.
Dana talks about about Lesnar with ESPN. He talks about Brock Lesnar’s mood and him walking out of that E:60 interview. Is it just me or has that gotten more attention from the media for this fight? Brock is an amazing promoter of his fights. He talks a lot of trash. And he does things [...]
Brock Lesnar and Couture were at hand for Mike & Mike show to discuss their UFC 91 fight. This fight can’t come up soon enough. Of course, the issue of deranged ears always come up with folks who are not really veteran MMA followers. Couture is as always the nice guy, but Brock doesn’t broadcast [...]
Randy has some tough words for Lesnar. He said in his latest interview that Lesnar has not done anything to worry Couture. Well, I am not sure if underestimating Lesnar is something Randy would want to do.
Randy also addresses rumors that Dana is trying to feed him to Lesnar. I have to agree with this [...]
Sherdog.com has a video interview up with Chuck Liddell where he talks about his loss to Rashad Evans. He obviously wants to fight, and he doesn’t blame his coach. But he mentions he needs to get rid of his bad habits. Interesting interview.
Couture has been really talkative about his fight with Lesnar. Well, if you consider the fact that Lesnar doesn’t talk at all. Couture is a team player but Lesnar seems to be into himself, and I can respect that. Lesnar is his own man and I hope he doesn’t go Cote on us.
Well. I think Dana is a bit overboard. I think Elite XC did some good things. But of course, the way Kimbo thing was handled was a joke, and Jared Shaw got to be the most unprofessional sports official anywhere.
Dana White did look real happy with Elite XC’s downfall, and he had some tough words about the promotion. I still think that Elite XC helped the sport as well. But Jared Shaw and his antics may have turned off some folks. Kimbo will probably be back after going to Japan, so we will see [...]
Goodrigde talked about how Kimbo has been great for the sport, but then called him a big pussy for losing to Seth. He did say that Seth was a great punch artist with the knock down of Bob Sapp. It’d be interesting to see Kimbo’s reaction. “Sounds like a challenge, dawg,” aint it?
Now this is one exciting fight. I think Thiago should be able to win it but you never know. I know Diego wants to fight BJ Penn but that wouldn’t happen even if BJ beat GSP. I personally want to see GSP or BJ vs. Anderson Silva before the mouthwatering Anderson vs. Wanderlei fight. Let’s [...]
Another interview with Seth after the Kimbo win. He talks about wanting to fight Tito and also how he knew he had Kimbo beat. I don’t know who this guy think he is but I don’t think he is good enough to beat a past-prime Tito. Having said that, I think he may get his [...]
Randy watching Kimbo? Yup! The video is up. Randy was kind to Kimbo saying that the loss is going to prove what kind of man he is. But in general most of these guys looked shocked at first but pretty happy after the fight.
Finally, this piece of video that aired during Fight Night is up. I like the teaser as it makes the fight seem like a very big deal. And I like the marketing aspect of it as well: Heavyweight Champ vs. NCAA heavyweight champ. It’d be very interesting. By the way, you may still be able [...]
What do Zuluzinho and Tim Sylvia have in common? They both lost to Fedor. They both did so in under 40 seconds, and they both didn’t mount any real offense. And did I say, they are both huge? Check out this little gem.
UFC 100 is in the books and what an event it was. A lot of good fights and a heck of a show from Brock Lesnar. I almost feel bad for all the other guys. As well as they may have performed, UFC 100 will be in the books with Brock as the major story. Brock flipping off the fans, dismissing the sponsor, talking about having sex with his wife was funny, provocative, and something I’ll not forget for a few days. He knows how to sell a PPV, and he just did his next fight.
