WAILUKU --- After winning ''The Ultimate Fighter'' reality show in 2006 and signing a contract to fight in the UFC, Kendall Grove said time and again that his dream was to come back to Maui and open a mixed martial arts school of his own.

Just when did Kendall Grove become so mature? One minute he’s a tatted-up punk known for hard partying, reality show antics, and a brazen, if not cringe-inducing, victory dance; the next, he’s a humble, sensitive guy who fights for his family’s welfare and the honor of his native Hawaii . . .

By someonespecial4 I said in my predictions that I nearly did not order UFC 90 and that I changed my mind.  Perhaps I shouldn't have.  I thought the card was good, but I was disappointed with the main event.  I never thought Cilva vs. Cote was main event worthy.  Patrick Cote was overrated and didn't deserve a title sh...

By Joe S On a seven-fight win streak, Anderson Silva is widely the favorite against Patrick Cote for their fight on Oct. 25 at UFC 90.
