Why Didn’t Anyone Tell Me About This?!?!
Posted by Brock Hardon | Friday, February 5th, 2010

Have you seen this?

no, not the fights, they kinda suck.  Florian is a good fighter, but Gomi better bring his A-Game because Florian rips through any lightweight without a belt around his waist.  Then Nelson is just a fatboy who isn’t terribly exciting to watch.  You’ve got to take a look in the bottom right [...]

Anderson Silva Vs. the UFC
Posted by Brock Hardon | Thursday, December 10th, 2009

Anderson Silva might just be the baddest man on the planet.

The guy dropped into the UFC kicking ass, and hasn’t lost yet.  Small fast dudes?  Ass-whoopin.  Big strong dudes?  First round knockouts.  The guy is untouchable.  That is what makes this video hilarious.

I love the internets.

You Got KTFO!
Posted by Brock Hardon | Wednesday, September 9th, 2009

After Legarrette Blount got loose on Byron Hout this weekend I was inspired.  Blount really popped that dude, even though he put on the roller skates and slid up out of there, the punch was solid.  So I needed some more freeze frame knockout punches in my life.

Damn, this is like the scared straight of [...]

(Wo)Man Up Monday: Gina Carano
Posted by Brock Hardon | Monday, August 17th, 2009

I think this is the first Woman Up Monday.  I’m going to have to go for the formerly undefeated, caught an ass whoopin’, but is still the baddest chick in MMA, Gina Carano.

I know it, she doesn’t even look like a fighter, but on Saturday she took on Cris Cyborg in the first ever female [...]

Man Up Monday: Forrest Griffin
Posted by Brock Hardon | Monday, August 10th, 2009

Whenever I talk about a UFC fight, all Lake ever asks is “Anderson Silva”?  If the answer is no, Lake is about 50/50.  If the answer is yes, Lake is generally in.  So we were both watching the fight Saturday, and the real main event was Silva vs. Forrest Griffin.  It was a great fight [...]

Come On Bruh: Art Jimmerson aka One Boxing Glove guy
Posted by Brock Hardon | Monday, July 20th, 2009

People take mixed martial arts for granted now.  We think of the martial arts all mixed together now.  But back in the day they were mixing fighters together that had different styles.  It was actually a pretty interesting concept.  Could karate beat judo?  Could Mui Thai beat kick boxing?  Could Boxing beat Mui Thai?  Could [...]

Rampage Jackson is Hilarious
Posted by Brock Hardon | Friday, July 10th, 2009

UFC 100 is this weekend, and although Rampage Jackson isn’t fighting, he’s actually more entertaining outside of the ring.  It takes a funny dude to start dry humping the woman interviewing him halfway through an interview.  But it takes a hilarious dude to do it for a full minute while looking her dead in the [...]

Tim Sylvia Got KTFO
Posted by Brock Hardon | Thursday, June 18th, 2009

I never understood how Tim Sylvia got the belt.  Sure, the guy is 6′8″ and I assume that he has some athletic skills beyond that, but he looks like a complete goofball in the ring.

I mean look at that dude.  Double knee braces, knock kneed, he’s a clown.  Every time I start to question why [...]

Kimbo Slice To the UFC!
Posted by Brock Hardon | Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009

When I heard this news today I couldn’t believe it.  Then, the more I thought about it, I could absolutely believe it.  Kimbo Slice, of YouTube fame, of personally destroyed Elite XC fame, of got his ass knocked out by a glorified fluffer fame, has a shot to get into the UFC.  This dude is [...]

The MMA is a Cruel, Cruel Game
Posted by Brock Hardon | Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

As much as I love fighting there is always something about it that bothered me, that really makes fighting different from all other sports.  For team sports, you can prepare, and try to be the best, but if you suck one night, people will notice but you can still potentially win.  There are solo sports, [...]

UFC Fight of the Year Preview: BJ Penn v. GSP
Posted by Brock Hardon | Wednesday, January 28th, 2009

I’m actually hyped up for this one.  I usually don’t go to that Pay Per View, especially when the internets is able to serve up full video within about 30 minutes of any match on tv, but this fight is worth my money.  Dana White and the UFC always do it up big, but champ [...]

The Life of an Ultimate Fighter
Posted by Brock Hardon | Wednesday, January 21st, 2009

Fighters have always been different guys.  Athletes, focused on their craft, learning how to defeat their opponent, they also have lots of special little rituals that they go through before the fight.

UFC Fighter Luke Cummo is a little different from most fighters.  He goes beyond being a vegan to only eating “life food”, which doesn’t [...]

UFC Corey Hill: Damn, That Ain’t Right
Posted by Brock Hardon | Friday, December 12th, 2008

This is Corey Hill.  He fights in the UFC and was on The Ultimate Fighter Season 5 with Coaches BJ Penn and Jens Pulver.  He fights at 155 pound, a lightweight.  He hasn’t been in a lot of fights, but he’s kind of an interesting dude.  Why?  He weighs 155 pounds and he is 6 [...]

Man Up Monday: The UFC
Posted by Brock Hardon | Monday, November 17th, 2008

Randy Couture and Brock Lesnar fought for the UFC Heavyweight championship this weekend.  By the way, who knew that heavyweight actually does have an upper limit, it is 265 pounds.  Pretty wide weight class.  A 60 pound swing is actually a little crazy when there is at most a 20 pound gap in the other [...]

Down Goes EliteXC: And It Is Allllllllllll Over!
Posted by Brock Hardon | Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008

Most people say “I hate to say I told you so”, but I looooooove to say I told you so.  So peep this out.  EliteXC just got choked the hell out.

That’s right.  The people who couldn’t serve Kimbo Slice cupcakes just got faded.  That is what happens when you bank your entire company on an [...]

Kimbo Slice Versus Ken Shamrock
Posted by Brock Hardon | Friday, October 3rd, 2008

Kimbo Slice locks it up with Ken Shamrock this weekend.  I’m a big MMA guy, but honestly this isn’t going to be a great fight.  We’ve got this:

Versus this guy:

Hey, three years ago Ken Shamrock would have whooped this dudes ass.  This ain’t three years ago and Shamrock hasn’t won a fight in five bouts.  [...]
