First off, I think Kenny Florian should fill in for Joe Rogan as much as the UFC will allow it. His fight commentary was spot on and he effortlessly managed to make Mike Goldberg (who to my amusement he called “Goldie”) sound foolish several times- always a treat.
Anyhow, UFC 83 answered a lot of questions [...]

First things first. The Yamma fighting surface did not remotely live up to its hype or serve its conceived purpose. Anyone who witnessed the event could tell you that the Yamma pretty much did the exact opposite of its intended function, as it only created less exciting fights if anything.
A novel idea, to create [...]

Last week, Frank Shamrock made some not so nice comments about big brother Ken during an interview with MMAMadness. In the interview, Frank claimed that Ken has been using steroids “his whole life”. Ken has since issued a pretty standard statement addressing Frank’s comments. Here is a quick excerpt:
“I have been subjected [...]

By now, many in the MMA community have heard about the feature film “Never Back Down” which stars acclaimed actor Djimon Hounsou and the lesser-known Sean Faris. The films fairly cheesy trailer is currently showing on YouTube, and the movie appears to be losing serious clout due to the scrutinizing eye that is the MMA [...]

So here I am, several days after UFC 82, trying to process everything that took place on Saturday night. Other than yet another dominant Anderson Silva title defense (of which I am not too surprised- I picked him over Henderson, I just hoped for a more competitive match), what long-lasting effects will the [...]

Yet I cannot help but wonder, is Silva really that good? Or did Henderson have an off night perhaps? That’s my problem really, I need closure [...]

Well it’s about that time again, the big show in Columbus is just a few hours away, and so here are my predictions for UFC 82 “Pride of a Champion”.
1. Dan Henderson vs. Anderson Silva for the unified middleweight title.
Prediction: Henderson via unanimous decision
This fight was tailor-made for Dan Henderson, even if Anderson Silva’s jiujitsu [...]

There have been all kinds of rumors and talk in the past about Floyd “Money” Mayweather Jr. coming to the world of mixed martial arts, though I doubt it will ever happen, especially now.
The undefeated boxing phenom has been offered a whopping $20 million dollars to step into the professional wrestling ring against 7 foot, [...]

After watching UFC 81 this past weekend, you have to wonder if Frank Mir and Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira had a strategy-sharing session backstage, where they both agreed to take a fierce beating before coming back to capture victory. It sounds like an awfully illogical strategy, since it requires one to absorb seemingly unnecessary [...]

On paper, a non-title match between a debatable has-been and an MMA newcomer, should clearly not be the main event on a UFC pay-per-view card, especially if there will be a heavyweight title fight taking place that same night. However in situations like these, there exist certain extenuating circumstances which, for the UFC, [...]
