Season Premiere of The Ultimate Fighter: Two Thumps Up

As for Jackson, he was made for TUF. Tito Ortiz, Chuck Liddell, and Randy Couture are three of the biggest draws in the history of mixed martial arts. Jackson has the fighting ability and charisma to join them as the fourth biggest but he just needs to get the exposure. I’ve felt for awhile that t...

Chuck Liddell has words for Kimbo Slice

Chuck Liddell had some words for Kimbo Slice in The Sun about how he thinks Kimbo might be a bit overrated: And Liddell joked: “I could make some impressive knockout videos too if you let me walk outside and just punch people and knock them out – “hey you, come fight!”

Tito Ortiz wants the winner of Evans vs. Bisping

Tito Ortiz held an MMA seminar for young fighters this weekend in Edmonton, and the former UFC light heavyweight champion was certainly not at a loss for words about where he stands in the UFC’s 205-lb. pecking order. Tito told the Edmonton Sun that since he lost his rematch to Chuck Liddel...

Can Houston Alexander be stopped?

With a victory against Thiago Silva, Alexander could very well put himself in position to be in a #1 contender type match. I’d love to see Alexander get in the cage against someone with more name value - maybe Forrest Griffin or the winner of Wanderlei Silva vs. Chuck Liddell.

Does Couture benefit from Liddell losing?

He better have a tight gameplan for Wanderlei because Silva apparently has been spending some time recently at Xtreme Couture as he prepares for UFC 79. ProElite.com interviewed fighters from Xtreme Couture to get their reaction to Randy Couture’s comments at his press conference on Thu...

UFC set to announce new television deal on Thursday

Also, Brock Lesnar, Chuck Liddell, and Wanderlei Silva will all be on the call as well. Liddell and Silva will be available to the media for the first time since White officially announced last night that the long-awaited showdown between the two light heavyweight icons is scheduled for D...

A flicker of hope?

If the UFC gets Randy back and they call and want Fedor to fight, we’ll send him to the UFC. That very reason is probably why Dana White wanted Wanderlei Silva for three fights when he attempted to loan him from Pride to face Chuck Liddell last year.

Steve Cofield from Fox Sports Radio and ESPN Radio is in Cincinnati to cover UFC 77 this Saturday. Cofield attended a UFC press conference and is attributing the following quote to UFC president Dana White in regard to Randy Couture’s UFC departure:

Was Couture due to make between $13-15 million?

The UFC has guarded such financial information with great care. UFC president Dana White is willing to address just about any topic, except money. For Couture’s alleged earnings to be released to the public says a lot. Iole also feels Couture could have handled his resignation from the UFC b...

5 Oz. Roundtable: Randy Couture’s departure from the UFC

Basically, Couture and the UFC need each other, but the UFC has other mega-stars like Chuck Liddell and Jackson. Couture is a top star, but the UFC has the vehicle to make other top stars. For Couture to have long-term success with his walk-out, many other top guys would need to join him immedi...

Does Bisping-Evans Deserve to Be the Main Event for UFC 78?

Second, Bisping-Evans doesn’t seem like a main event. Not for a big time pay-per-view, anyway. If this were a UFC Fight Night or some other free TV broadcast, I wouldn’t complain. But if you want my $39.95 you have to give me a real main event, and some other bouts that are better than the likes of H...

5 Oz. of Pain’s Pound-for-Pound Top 10 and New Rankings Section

3. Quinton “Rampage” Jackson - When your last two wins are over Chuck Liddell and Dan Henderson it’s hard to question a guy. 7. Paulo Filho - Undefeated and has looked dominant most of the way. I’d love to see him against other top middleweights such as Silva, Henderson, Matt Lindland and Denis K...

The Rock a big fan of Couture, MMA

The Rock was recently interviewed on ESPN 2 and stated he has “a ton of love and respect for” the UFC and MMA in general. Whether you like pro wrestling or think its lame, you have to respect how the Rock transitioned from Vince McMahon’s lackey to Hollywood action hero. Below are his thoughts o...

Podcast: Chuck Liddell’s trainer, John Hackleman, calls me a moron and more fun with audio

Our pal, Steve Cofield, aka Mr. Sunshine, had Chuck Liddell’s trainer, John Hackleman, as a guest on his show. Hackleman said he believed Keith Jardine won the fight vs. Liddell at UFC 76 and gave his reasons as to why he felt Liddell lost. He said that he doesn’t believe in any way that Liddell is...

UFC News & Notes: Nakamura tests positive; surgery for Shogun; Jensen to replace Eastman

So let me see, Forrest Griffin says he won’t be ready for Dec. 29; Rampage has a hand injury that could prevent him from fighting again in ‘07; and now Shogun is on the shelf? What does that leave as far as big light heavyweight fights for UFC 79? You could go Chuck Liddell vs. Houston Alexander an...

Random Rant: Why I contacted Jerry Millen for comment

I’m also aware that Jardine vs. Liddell was signed after Wanderlei officially signed and that UFC 76 needed a main event. When I said Jardine vs. Liddell should have been canceled I got calls from a few people in the industry who said “Sam, you really sound like you know nothing about the busine...

5 Oz. Exclusive: Former PRIDE V.P. Millen speaks out about UFC’s handling of possible Liddell vs. Silva match

“First off, I want to state that I still believe (UFC light heavyweight champion) Quinton Jackson is a PRIDE fighter,” said Millen. “Quinton has improved as a fighter but in my heart, Quinton Jackson is still a PRIDE fighter. He came over to the UFC and he’s kicked some ass.” And, as for Shogun?

MMA Roundup: Liddell could fight in Dec.; Rampage could be done for ‘07; Parisyan vs. Lombard; Riggs wants Shamrock; and more!

It was revealed during the UFC 76 post-fight press conference that Quinton “Rampage” Jackson’s hand injury worsened during his UFC 75 title defense against Dan Henderson and that he’s unlikely to fight again in 2007. It doesn’t look like the UFC can fall back on a Forrest Griffin vs. Rampag...

Dana White: Silva vs. Liddell “just not meant to happen”

For now, what appeared to be the three biggest money matches, Jackson against Rua, Jackson against Liddell, or Liddell against Silva, look to be out the window. White had been attempting to put together Silva vs. Liddell for five years, and having recently signed Silva, had it planned for D...

UFC 76: Post-show thoughts on Jardine and Griffin upsets and more

I don’t know where to begin. But let’s begin with Liddell vs. Jardine: Let’s move onto Forrest Griffin vs. Mauricio “Shogun” Rua: Jon Fitch vs. Diego Sanchez: BTW, I gave all three rounds to Machida 10-9. Thiago Tavares vs. Tyson Griffin:
