Joey Sports Fan: Yo, Chuck, what do you think about Shogun's injury? Chuck Liddell: It's sucks man...Really sucks. Joey Sports Fan: Yeah. Chuck Liddell: Ya. Joey Sports Fan: You know what?

Patrycja Mikula Plays A Good Ol’ Fashioned Game of ‘True Or False’

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

It's a question that has been on the minds of MMA fans for several months: Will Andrei Arlovski re-sign with the UFC or choose to fight elsewhere? Obviously, "the Pitbull" has kept his lips sealed so I decided to bypass him and go straight for the person closest to the former ...

A Few Precious Minutes With Mark Cuban

Monday, March 3rd, 2008

You'll never guess who I bumped into in cyberspace over the weekend. No, it wasn't "To Catch A Predator"'s Chris Hansen. It was super-owner Mark Cuban! It's strange meeting a billionaire in cyberspace and, as you can imagine, he doesn't have much time for shenanigans. However, I was able ...

Josh Haynes Looks To Bring The Pain Tonight

Friday, February 29th, 2008

Really loved this interview* particularly because Josh Haynes was very candid with his thoughts. Haynes makes his IFL debut tonight against Leopoldo Serao at the Orleans Arena in Las Vegas (HDNet, 11 pm EST). Haynes gained his initial fame on The Ultimate Fighter 3 when he made it to the finals ...

Ryan Schultz Is Set To Prove All The Doubters Wrong…Again

If you ask me (and I know you didn't but whatev), no one has more to prove at the IFL's season opener than Ryan Schultz. The promotion's first-ever Lightweight champion is coming off a shocking victory over arguably their most popular star in Chris Horodecki. Given the fact that he ...

The Second Coming Of The Star Of David

Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

Boy does time fly. The last time boxing fans saw Dmitriy Salita (27-0, 15 KO) compete in the ring was almost one full year ago. March 22, 2007, to be exact. So, where has he been hiding? Well, we covered that drama when we chatted with him last month but now ...

Rob Yundt Gets Second Chance To Make A First Impression

Monday, February 25th, 2008

Imagine being an MMA fighter whose ultimate goal is to someday compete for the Ultimate Fighting Championship. You've compiled six straight victories in your career and things are starting to look good. You decide to try out for The Ultimate Fighter 7 show but only make it as an alternate. ...

The Klitschko Coronation Is Almost Here

Friday, February 22nd, 2008

No disrespect to Las Vegas but there really isn't anything like a big fight at Madison Square Garden. Throw two heavyweight title holders in the mix and things get really interesting. So, while I have no doubt that Wladimir Klitschko will defeat Sultan Ibragimov tomorrow night at the Mecca, I'm ...

Here Comes The Money

Thursday, February 21st, 2008

Four days later and I'm still jacked up over the Mayweather-Show Wrestlemania angle. It partially has something to do with the thought of my combat sports worlds colliding but I think more about the lost art of surprises in wrestling. That said, I will never forget the night Money May ...
