Opinion: Roy Nelson and Kimbo Slice

30 Sep 2009 23:02:25 PDT

It was billed as the biggest fight in the history of The Ultimate Fighter and one fighter was less than impressive. And that fighter was Roy “Big Country” Nelson. As predicted, Roy Nelson took out Kimbo Slice. But it was not all that impressive. He was fighting a guy that has next-to-no MMA train...

CA We move on to the fight, which had a good ending but left me unimpressed with both fighters. Round one saw some lackadaisical stand up for the first minute or so and then Lawson took Dent down quickly. He tried some submission attempts but nothing was ...

Opinion: The Ultimate Fighter needs to go away

15 Dec 2008 11:55:25 PST

Written by Steve Cofield
People don't want to see that. I think that's really the problem. People like the fights, like to see the fighters train and get to know them. As later shows go on there hasn't been discipline from the UFC brass. They continue to let them drink in the house which I think is a dangerous situation....

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...

By Matt Serra UFC Welterweight champion Ben Saunders I definitely liked from the get go. He’s not your typical, cookie cutter fighter. He reminded me a little bit of Luke Cummo in that sense, he’s a smart guy just trying to be who he is, no tough guy act about being in this sport.
