Avoiding Nelson vs. Slice spoilers
Anderson Silva looked very good against Forrest Griffin and there may not be a better striker in the game right now. That being said, Belfort quickly handled a fighter Anderson Silva respects a great deal in Rich Franklin. Silva hasn’t had a true threat in a long time, probably since Dan Hend...

Rampage Jackson done with UFC?
Especially after the way Dana handled his "episode." White could’ve gotten rid of Rampage pretty quick after that and no one would’ve blamed him. It was a bizarre incident that could’ve ruined his career. Instead, Rampage was kept out of the spotlight until it blew over and then given full ba...

Opinion: One-on-one with UFC lightweight Melvin Guillard
I had a few opportunities where I could have hit him but I had just got off an eight month suspension from [president] Dana [White] and the UFC and the [Nevada State Athletic] Commission.
