You likely can recall last September, when the internet was rife with speculation and reports, as to whether or not “Rampage” Jackson would ever step foot in the Octagon again. At the time, the former light-heavyweight champ and UFC boss man Dana White were fully engaged in an all out ‘don’t blame me, blame him’ [...]

If you’ve been following the verbal warfare Chael Sonnen’s launched at Anderson Silva as they head into their tilt next weekend, then you know he’s got a teee-onne of sh-t ready to be dumped on his bed, if he gets bombed out on the 7th. We jumped all over Chael’s ‘what did he say now?’ [...]

Back when your local pub would receive more requests to show bowling than the UFC, the tiny world of MMA was often a buzz about Phil “The New York Bad Ass” Baroni. Not just because of his ‘is this guy serious?’ showmanship, but also because of his ability to violently bounce opponent’s heads with his [...]

(photo courtesy Xtreme Couture) Now depending on where you’re at in this ever shrinking world of ours, you may want to take another sip of that morning java and squint: the above headline reads ‘Ryan’, not ‘Randy’. Yes indeedy, Strikeforce has announced today that it has signed the 27 year-old son of legendary fighter Randy Couture, [...]

Yes, generally this site is largely dedicated to the punching and kicking of the sport’s larger shows; the Strikeforces, the WECs, the Dreams and of course, the omnipresent / monolithic UFC. Naturally, there is much more to MMA than all this, and if you’re truly a big fan (and have little else to do) you should [...]

It’s been a few days since the UFC confirmed the signing of Strikeforce Middleweight Champion Jake Shields (yes, yes, technically he’s the ‘former’- but really, until blood is spilt over winning the vacated belt why argue?) and it’s probably still too soon to tell, whether the average TUF generation fan even gives a damn about [...]

We’ve tried (as best we can) to keep our readers up to speed on the ‘what will he say next’ watch for James Toney, as the renowned boxer continues to prepare for his MMA debut against Randy Couture, August 28th. If you’ve followed Mr. Toney’s pugilistic career to date, then you know that the boxing [...]

If you’re thinking Vladimir “The Janitor” Matyushenko is going to clean the Octagon floor with Jon Jones this Sunday, you sir / madam, are a rare find (like the lil play there with the nickname? No? Not so much?) In fact if you even think Matyushenko has a decent chance of winning, stating you’re in [...]

Now depending on how you’ve been spending your free time since June (as certain ‘recreational activities’ have been known to diminish one’s memory), you may or may not recall Pat Barry dropping Mirko “Cro Cop” at UFC 115, only to let the legendary fighter get back to his feet. At the time many were perplexed [...]

Many die hard MMA fans have not fully adjusted to the post-Fedor-Can-Lose world, a place where up is down, nights is day, and fantastic tales on an unbeatable Russian fighter, are no longer fired at newcomers to the sport. You remember: ‘You think Anderson Silva is good? Dude, there’s this guy named Fedor Emelianenko who [...]
