UFC: Ultimate Fighting Championship

By Adam Wagner Fresh off his stint as coach of Team U.S. on The Ultimate Fighter (TUF): “U.S. vs. U.K.,” he battles opposing coach Michael “The Count” Bisping this Saturday, July 11 from the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada live on pay-per-view. A “crock of shit,” according to Henderson.

By D Wizzle There was a pay-per-view MMA show last Saturday night that you might have missed. I only think the hardcore MMA fans knew about the Ultimate Chaos show in Biloxi, Mississippi. Overall, this was an average card with not a whole lot of star quality. Fans got to see a lot of fights and some good knoc...

Thumbs downBest fight: none. McKee vs. Thompson was off to a good start before the bullshit finish. I think Thompson got hit or kneed in the nuts and the ref missed it because his seeing eyed dog spilled his cup of pencils all over his white cane. He also managed to miss Sapp tapping out right in fro...

By TIM VREELAND TV: Where do you prefer to be in a fight? WW: I like to stand and bang, but I won’t play rock-em sock-em robots; if I can take the fight to the ground then I will. I am aggressive with my submissions, have good ground and pound and like to keep myself well rounded.

By MMAmania Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) capped off its ninth season of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) with a thrilling Finale on Spike TV, Strikeforce showcased several up-and-comers in addition to well-traveled veterans with its latest “Challengers Series” on Showtime, and Bellator Fi...

By Luke Thomas However, there are two things that simply can't be denied: One, MMA events, such as the Ultimate Fighting Championship circuit, are ridiculously popular. And two, UFC Undisputed 09 is an amazing video game. Created by Yukes, the same developers that handled most of the better WWE games fo...

By Leland Roling Brian Oswald (MMAMania.com): You are now training over at Greg Jackson’ camp, alongside fellow TUF 2 castmates Keith Jardine and Rashad Evans. Is it fair to say that your time there has taken your game to another level, and if so, what specifically have you improved upon?

Do you see a day when MMA rises to the prominence of, say, basketball or hockey? What do you think of the idea of having individual cities sponsor MMA fighters to go up against fighters in other cities, like having the Broncos of Denver take on the ...

By Leland Roling The big problem, however, is that Fitch has already lost to Georges St. Pierre as has Josh Koscheck. If Thiago Alves loses to GSP at UFC 100, an impressive performance could vault Swick toward the top simply to mix up the competition that GSP is defending his title against.

By Scott Wharton If you are looking to start in career mode and build your own fighter, your best bet is to play for while in exhibition mode and use different fighters before starting a career. Get used to the controls and the game functions, that way when you do start career mode you don’t start off with a crap...

By Cameron Gidari Fighters bruise and bleed convincingly, and the knockout physics, while somewhat over the top, are still fun to look at. In all, UFC 2009 Undisputed is the mixed martial arts game that fans of the sport have been awaiting for a long time.

By VSN Writers Minus a few wrong turns here and there, it could very well be you lining up across George St. Pierre for the welterweight title. Or maybe in your case, lining up across Brock Lesnar for the heavyweight title (since they don’t make a super-ultra-heavyweight division).

Thumbs up - this is neither an entusiastic thumbs up nor grudging. There were a goodassortment of fights and styles and looking back, I feel entertained and it was worth themoney. Best Match - Evans/Machida. I think I'll be one of the very few to choose this one, buthere's my thought. First, thi...

By Michael Rome Whether it be Liddell, Matt Hughes, Randy Couture or Forrest Griffin, every UFC-created star will reach the day they can no longer compete with the elites. At that point, it would be in their best interest not to fight when it comes to long-term quality of life, because of the damage the puni...

By Luke Thomas Consider this: I have the only show in the entire Washington, DC listening market (a top 10 market nationally, mind you) devoted to covering MMA. If the brass at CBS decide the push behind MMA simply isn't what worth the trouble - a push in large part provided by Chad Dukes - MMA will cease to be...

By Jeremy Botter CHUCK LIDDELL VS. MAURICIO SHOGUN RUA PREDICTION: Chuck Liddell by TKO (Round One) Soszynski trains with Dan Henderson at Team Quest and earned his way into the UFC after making it to the finale of season eight of The Ultimate Fighter.

By MMAMadness.com Over the past few years, Mixed Martial Arts has exploded in popularity with guys like Chuck Liddell, Anderson Silva, and Georges St. Pierre becoming household names and regular fixtures in the mainstream sports media.  The current UFC roster is filled with former TUF participants, with...

By Leland Roling Josh Koscheck (-550) vs. Paulo Thiago (+425): Josh Koscheck heads into this bout coming off of a brutal KO win over Yoshiyuki Yoshida. Koscheck is a former NCAA D1 National Champion, and one of the best wrestlers in MMA today. He has improved his striking greatly since his debut on the first se...

St. Pierre now has a stake in the claim for top pound-for-pound fighter. It was Anderson Silva’s title for the past year, and some would argue he's still at the top. Fedor Emelianenko has made his claim with brutal wins over Tim Sylvia and Andrei Arlovski, and now St. Pierre has made his case with...

By Eric Shapiro Let me begin by stating that anyone who claims they can predict Saturday night’s main event with any real certainty is either lying to you or on drugs. That being said, I’m going with Georges St. Pierre. I’m picking GSP simply because he is the better- nay, the best 170lb fighter in the game toda...

By Alan Conceicao Ken Shamrock: Shamrock’s loss to Buzz Berry was a brutal one. The Kimbo debacle only could have damaged him more. Now the news that he’s fighting on February 13th against Bo Cantrell comes almost as no surprise. To everyone’s credit, this is better than the rumored February bout against Tim S...

By Jeremy Botter Even while losing to Chuck Liddell in December 2007, Silva gained fame as one of the only fighters since the UFC's rise to mainstream popularity to stand in the pocket and trade punches with Liddell.

By Darren Heitner The first televised MMA card on a major network is on May 31 and features Slice against James Thompson.

By Adam Wagner Michael Bisping: Um … well I don’t know, you know, I think it’s going to be an intriguing fight to watch. If he looks like he did against Anderson Silva, you kinda lean toward Travis Lutter, to be honest. But I’m expecting Rich Franklin to beat him. But I think Travis Lutter will give him a good fig...

By Luke Thomas Kid Nate: Very tough to call. Silva has been a world beater in the UFC, he's been at the top of his game, winning impressively with distance striking (Leben), clinch striking (Franklin x2), jiu jitsu off his back (Lutter) and wrestling (Marquardt). Henderson theoretically brings the exac...

By Sam Caplan Sam Caplan: There was some talk that maybe you would be involved with the seventh season of “The Ultimate Fighter” as a coach. Obviously, Forrest Griffin and Quinton Jackson got the coaching slots. But was that ever something that was discussed with you?

By SamCaplan A teep is a jab kick specific to Muay Thai. What Boetsch was throwing last night was not a jab kick. It was a straight heel kick and it likely comes from his Jeet Kune Do training. I realize both kicks look similar but there are some noticeable differences and the purposes of both kicks are differe...

By ben The last fighter to actually wear Affliction during an event was Georges St. Pierre at UFC 79 where he sported Affliction on his tights and gi.

By Irie Rujah The Ultimate Fighting Championship, UFC for those not hip to the lingo, failed to make a dent on any mainstream sports outlet over the Holiday weekend. Perhaps it was because of the Giants vs. Patriots game on Saturday, which just happened to be the same night the pay-per-view was being broa...

By Jesse Holland Many thought Quinton “Rampage” Jackson would be taken down by Dan “Hollywood” Henderson, but tonight I really noticed how much Rampage has matured as a fighter. Where does he go from here? How about Rampage/Rua II? That’s assuming Forrest Griffin doesn’t throw a wrench in the works at UFC...

Alex Karalexis is a great friend, Mike Swick, Josh Rafferty, Lodune Sincaid. Quite a few guys have stayed in touch. And of course Chris Leben. He’s my special little guy!
