As it is, one of the most egregious incidents in recent UFC history gets a casual glossing over. A coaching [...]

I thought I should put this up for those of you who didn’t see it last night.  MMA Live covered the weigh-ins, pre-fight and post-fight for this event which I enjoyed and they plan to do the same thing for UFC 114.  Hopefully this will become a standard because they always do a good job [...]

A fighter who rose to prominence in a certain company will always be identified with that [...]

This week’s episode began with Kyacey Uscola’s criticism of Tito Ortiz as he believes the team is overtraining. Most of the fighters disagree, and Ortiz proceeds to call Kyacey out on his comment that doing plyometrics, an exercise that McCray had never previously performed, was probably not the smartest thing to try out two days [...]

5. He’s beaten some of my favorite fighters. I know, I know. That’s what they’re paid to do. But I can’t say it doesn’t cause cumulative annoyance over time. And even though a lot of these are due to fighters going up in weight, Machida beating fighters like Rich Franklin, B.J. Penn, Thiago Silva and Rashad Evans breaks my [...]

The episode begins with Tito offering an uncharacteristic apology to Clayton McKinney after McKinney has to have some major shoulder surgery. Tito had accused him of being mentally weak and wanted him to suck it up, and then unexpectedly admitted he was wrong. Clayton obviously sees the apology as too little too late as he gives Tito the finger [...]
