FightLinker Continues To Call Out Sam Caplan
November 29, 2007
Forget about GSP-Hughes III, the announcement that really rocked the MMA world this week* was Ryan Harkness (FightLinker.com) challenging Sam Caplan (fiveouncesofpain.com, proelite.com and cbssports.com) to a REAL MMA fight. No, really he did. And, yes, they are going to fight.
I had heard some rumblings that Ryan was going to challenge Sam before the end of the year and he officially did it earlier this week. Needless to say, I can’t wait to watch these two blogging legends to officially get it on.
FightLinker.com and Fiveouncesofpain.com are, without a doubt, two of the best MMA blogs out there (I would even say they are two of the best blogs period but that might sound like a bit of stretch to someone who hates mixed martial arts). Sure, Ryan talks a big game on his site but give the man credit - he is certainly putting his money where his mouth is by issuing this challenge.
Since JarryPark.com is attempting to establish itself as the leader in combat sports interviews it seemed like a natural fit to talk to Ryan about his challenge, how he plans on training for the fight and when we should expect it to go down. I look forward to having Sam come to The Park and respond.
Who’s going to win the battle of the blogs? Let us know in the comments section.

*Fine, maybe this challenge didn’t really rock the MMA world but, damn it, I am excited to see two bloggers fight!

You sure do, my friend, you sure do.
I say we put together a FightLinker-Caplan 24/7 show like Mayweather-Hatton…talk about must-see TV.

Now we need Dave Meltzer to wrestle… someone. I’d say Bryan Alvarez, but they’re friends and face/face matches are rare. I’d still pay to see it!

I think many people would but I wouldn’t hold my breath on that one.
However, think of all the great booking possibilities…

I could see Bryan turning heel on Dave. And we know Bryan is a little mercenary who will fight anyone for the right money. Hmmm.

I love how there’s a Ryan Harkness category here now.

Hey, he was a guest so he deserves one like all the rest.

I am in a financial trouble. When I divorced I saw that I had very little credit history, which was not enough to qualify for a new credit card of my own. All credit cards I have used before were in my husband’s name, so they were not reported to the credit bureaus. I wonder if I can start my own credit file through applying for a secured credit card at
Excellent Credit Card
