Positives of the UFC 97 Main Event

Henderson and Lutter are also fighters who were able to get Silva down. Thales can also now lay claim that he is one of only two fighters in the UFC to win a round over Anderson Silva; Dan Henderson being the other, taking round 1 of his fight with Silva.

The 10 Least Popular MMA Practitioners

Every good guy has to have a bad guy. Just like a popular fighter is a draw on a Pay Per View, these bad guys are also a draw. We watch our favorites to see them win and we watch these guys to see them lose. 4. Chuck Liddell 3. Ken Shamrock 1. Matt Hughes

Rashad Evans: Untouchable?

We all remember him as the young arrogant "show-boater" from The Ultimate fighter 4. Now, almost four years later he is the Undisputed Light Heavyweight champion and has taken down such legends as Chuck Liddel and took Tito Ortiz to a draw. Forrest Griffin

Thales Leites: The "Other Guy" in Saturday's UFC 97 Main Event

Currently tied with John Fitch and Royce Gracie for the most consecutive UFC wins with eight, Silva would stand alone with a win on Saturday. “The Spider” is also one title defense away from tying Matt Hughes and Tito Ortiz for the most in the history of the organization with five consecutiv...

The Countdown:Top Five Best Strikers in MMA

No. 2: Lyoto “The Dragon” Machida In my opinion, he is the second best striker in MMA and will defeat Rashad Evans for the Light Heavyweight title next month at UFC 98! Honorable mentions: Semmy Schilt, Wanderlei Silva, Chuck Liddell, Mauricio Rua, Quinton Jackson, and Marcus Davis.)

Revenge Is a Dish Best Served Cold: A Few Rematches I'd Like to See

Rashad Evans vs. Tito Ortiz Plus, Rashad has improved his quickness, footwork, and dexterity sevenfold since then; he would end Ortiz on the feet. Of course, since Rashad is now the champion with the monumental task of solving the riddle of Machida, this fight isn't even necessary.

The Frank Shamrock Interview: Can He Lead Strikeforce into MMA 2.0?

In MMA, you have your up-and-comers, your run-of-the mill-fighters, title holders that become superstars, and then you have Frank Shamrock. Whether you love him or hate him, Frank Shamrock is an icon in the world of mixed martial arts. He has earned his moniker "the legend" by fully emb...

Fight Preview UFC 97: Chuck Liddell vs. Shogun Rua

Rampage instead, pulled a "Chuck Liddell"...on Chuck Liddell. That is, Jackson threw a right hook to the face of Liddell as Liddell was throwing his own left hook to Jackson's body. The impact was devastating. The Iceman was shattered (enough ice related plays on words yet?).

Keep PC BS Out of MMA

This shameful circus is not about real hate on the part of Dana White—THERE ISN'T ANY. Every MMA fan should understand that to defend Dana White in this case is to defend the sport itself from PC encroachment, not to agree with words we all know he did not meant and were spoken in anger.

Strikeforce Set To Establish Itself as a Major Player: Preview

Either fighter wins by... Shamrock wins by... Improved wrestling. Frank Shamrock never had much in the way of takedowns, and with a busted up knee these days his takedowns have gone by the wayside. Diaz usually chooses to box until he is taken down, and then his jiu-jitsu kicks in.

A Note To The Fertitta Brothers Re: Dana White

Of course I am referring to Dana White. Does Dana get a raise for every F word that he has the balls to utter on behalf of the UFC? The funniest aspect of this whole situation is that Dana's long time foe Tito Ortiz would make a far superior president for the UFC.

Where oh Where Has Kimbo Slice Gone?

Chuck Liddell and Tito Ortiz lost before, and they came right back to the octagon. Yet after one loss, Kimbo's calling it quits?! That doesn't sound like an MMA persona to me. Maybe Kimbo wasn't really an MMA fighter afterall. Maybe he really was overhyped by the mainstream media, and UFC Pres...

UFC Hall of Famer Ken Shamrock Suspended for Steroid Use

Shamrock is a legend in the sport of MMA, having emerged from the Japanese shoot wrestling Pancrase circuit to compete strongly at the very first Ultimate Fighting Championship event in 1993, in which he lost the final to Brazilian jiu-jitsu master Royce Gracie.

Ken Shamrock's Downward Spiral

Many MMA fans, myself included, missed the early years of Shamrock when he was heavyweight champion of the UFC. Instead, I was introduced to Shamrock during his return to MMA in 2002 when he started feuding with Tito Ortiz. Although Shamrock was not nearly as dominant inside the octagon upo...

Historic MMA Rivalries, Part Four: UFC vs. Fighters

Randy Couture and Jon Fitch’s quarrels with Dana White and the UFC became front page news this year. Tito Ortiz and Dana’s public war of words appeared in MMA discussion forums as much as UFC commentator, Mike Goldberg uses his “Pedro Rizzo 85 mph baseball bat” reference.

Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) for Dummies, Part One

Dirty boxing is just like it sounds, and UFC Hall-of-Famer Randy Couture is one of the best practitioners. Who got knocked out by who, what fighters got hosed by a quick stoppage, dream match-ups, who is overrated (or underrated,) and why guys like Tito Ortiz should talk less. Enjoy!

Rich Franklin vs. Wanderlei Silva and B.J. Penn vs. Kenny Florian

Wanderlei Silva signed with the UFC in 2007, after a long and successful run in PRIDE. Returning to the UFC for the first time since a UFC 25 loss to Tito Ortiz in 2000, Silva faced Chuck Liddell at UFC 79 in late 2007. He suffered a unanimous-decision loss, but Silva rebounded with a dominating...

The Guinness Book Of World Records: Do They Actually Care About MMA?

The first was "Most Light-Heavyweight Title Defenses" obviously held by Tito Ortiz (pictured). This was all good and well, and he had a nice picture on the page of him in action. This record was for "Lightest UFC Fighters". The book also included Randy Couture for having most titles won.

Dana White: Savior of the UFC Deserves Better

Still, it should be noted that Dana White has made stars out of men like Chuck Liddell, Randy Couture, Tito Ortiz, Andrei Arlovski, Tim Sylvia, and Matt Hughes, just to name a few. Anderson Silva, Georges St. Pierre, B.J. Penn, Quinton Jackson, and Lyoto Machida are just a few of the top-ranked...
