Left hook from hell
Antonio Rogerio Nogueira’s crushing left hook to the temple of Luiz Cane last Saturday was a work of art. The rights he used to set-up each left he landed was the perfect example of what an effective jab is supposed to be - none of this pawing crap, Razor Rob. Kid Nate over a Bloody ...

May 1st
May 1st is looking like it might be a busy day. First Dana White mentions that the plan is return to Montreal for that date, and then Lyoto Machida mentions that May 1st will be the day he’ll be rematching Mauricio ‘Shogun’ Rua. But there’s a potential problem for ...

Gonzaga Out: Dos Santos/Velasquez, plz
More great fucking news about the fucking wonderful fucking time that has been the last fucking half of 2000 and fucking 9: Sources with the UFC confirmed that Gabriel Gonzaga is off the [108] card because of staph infection. Is there some kind of super staph that only lives in ...

Ben Saunders wants a Swick rematch
While I’d rather see Ben Saunders take on Anthony Rumble Johnson in a ‘Godzillas of the Welterweight Division’ showdown before Rumble’s kidneys shut down, I also wouldn’t mind seeing a rematch between Saunders and Mike Swick sometime down the road. So would ...

Dude dies after Semmy Schilt knees him (from completely unrelated causes)
I mentioned yesterday that K-1’s big World Grand Prix finals are coming up fast and everyone is in the middle of vigourous training camps. We actually spent a little time with Jerome Le Banner as he was training here in Montreal for our TV show pilot, and it sounds like Semmy Schilt ...

Work on UFC 2010 video game picking up
Arianny Celeste has been trying to position herself as the new ‘head Octagon girl’ for a while now … y’know, the one that gets to do all the host shit Rachelle Leah still gets to do for some reason. It looks like she’ll be getting an opportunity to show some of ...

Loser St Pierre
The fact that Georges St Pierre used to be bullied around back in school has been brought up a few times in the past during Countdown shows and in a bunch of interviews. But I don’t think it’s been discussed as thoroughly before as it is in this article from UFC.com where Georges ...

Dynamite 2009 Press Conference Notes / Report
The room is quiet, various members of the press fondle each others’ zoom lenses. Bob Sapp enters wearing a loin cloth carrying a giant gong with a banana in his mouth. He bashes the gong seven times with what looks like a femur bone. This causes the journalists in the room to wince ...

Spank Bank: Kim Couture
fightlinker.com — Even though I don’t like Kim Couture, I would still totally bang her. This post is my... shrine to her big knockers and ba dunk a dunk. Yep, even annoying chicks look hot to me when they fight. I seem to remember seeing a ... (more) Spank Bank: Kim Couture
JackalFights: Josh Burkman vs Brandon Melendez
From this past weekend, Josh Burkman looking kinda rusty or something in his first fight since getting the axe from the UFC. If you wanna skip the fight (yer not missing too much) and just see the knockout (which is pretty nice in a gunslinger kinda way) is right at the very end of the ...

Spank Bank: For the ladies
UFC veteran Emmanuel Yarborough. Goddamn I wish I could find a video of his only win - he defeated Tatsuaki Nakano at a Shooto event back in 1998 via smother. His UFC 3 fight against Keith Hackney after the jump.

Lesnar health update
While it certainly sounds like the worst of his illness is behind him, there’s still no official upgrade on Brock Lesnar’s status, not even from “May never fight again” to “Will fight again, we just don’t know when.” But one good sign is Dana has ...

‘Huerta Enters Free Agency’
That’s the Sherdog headline. But truth be told, there’s nothing free about the agency he’s in: “We’re free to negotiate with other organizations now, but the UFC has the right to match (any offer),” Huerta’s manager, Jeff Clark, of NCFC Management told Sherdog.com on ...

K-1 World Grand Prix 2009 coming up
The tournament bracket for December 5th’s K-1 World Grand Prix 2009 Finals. Last year’s tournament ended with Badr Hari getting disqualified for some MMA-style ground and pound, but even with that cup of urine to swallow it was still a great event. Bloody Elbow has more.

Nothing much for Machida after Shogun
Sergio Non gives everyone another reason to hope Shogun Rua beats Lyoto Machida in their May 1st rematch (voodoo curse permitting). A win for Rua means a fine selection of potential challengers and exciting fights. On the other hand, if Lyoto wins… [insert tumbleweed] Because ...
