Keith Jardine

There is only one Keith Jardine. Inside and outside the cage. The Dean of Mean is a herky-jerky fighter who shuffles rather than glides. His hands are often held high, usually in motion, like a jumbo crustacean's claws. From there he whips savage leg kicks or punches with surprising power.

Keith Jardine builds his reputation in the octagon, without any glitz or glamour.

By inexactscience The main event was quite entertaining. Forrest Griffin is a guy that I’ve always had mixed feelings about. I enjoy watching him fight, and I generally like him, but he only beat Rampage by the slimmest of margins and  I don’t think you should be able to win a belt like that. Forrest is a very well...

By fedor291 Michael Rome: I'm always concerned now when Chuck fights, but I think he'll win here.  Every time they hype Rashad we hear we're going to see a new, aggressive striker.  It never happens.  Rashad isn't that hard to hit, he got hit by Bisping and Tito.  Chuck via TKO, round 1.

By Sean Schimling 5. Houston Alexander I think Jardine would be a great fight for Anderson. He has an awkward style, and has a reputation of upsetting people(Chuck Liddell,Forrest Griffin, and Brandon Vera). Jardine is a middle of the road contender, which is what Silva needs. 2. Chuck Liddell

By Greg Clark A legendary warrior known as “The Axe Murderer”, Wanderlei Silva (31-8-1) began his career almost 11 years ago in his native Brazil and has since cemented his legacy as one of the greatest light heavyweights in MMA history. Last December at UFC 79, Silva made a thrilling return to the Octagon, engaging in a three round war with Chuck Liddell. And though he would fall short in this Fight of The Year candidate via decision, he proved that he still has plenty of gas left in his fighting tank. A former PRIDE champion who has defeated the likes of current UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Quinton Jackson (twice), Dan Henderson, Kazushi Sakuraba (three times), Ricardo Arona, Hidehiko Yoshida, and Kazuyuki Fujita, Silva is ready to get back in the Oct...   [read the full post]
