Jon Fitch released from the UFC, other AKA fighters also rumoured to be released
Several MMA sites are reporting that Jon Fitch, who’s coming off a 5 round loss to Georges St. Pierre, has been released by the UFC due to a dispute over image rights with regards to the UFC’s upcoming video game. Some other AKA fighters are also rumoured to have been released, including Marcus Aurelio, Josh [...]
WEC 36 – Gambler’s Trinity
WEC 36 is tonight, and is looking to be a great event. I was meant to write this post earlier, but the odds weren’t out yet over the weekend. I guess better late than never. WEC 36 seems to be totally devoid of easy money – A lot of the fights are at even odds, [...]
UFC 90 – Gambler’s Trinity
UFC 90 is, well, tonight, so most people probably already have their money down. As bad as I thought UFC 89 was for making dough, turns out I was wrong. Dan Hardy and Terry Etim (Last week’s pick for best underdog win) both won, and those with foresight probably came out of 89 up a [...]
Controversial Decision #3: Anderson Silva – P4P King or Dana White Spin?
Anderson ‘The Spider’ Silva. A lock for the UFC Hall of Fame. A terrifyingly dominant champion in his weight class. A wearer of yellow spandex short shorts.

UFC 89 – Gambler’s Trinity
UFC 89 is coming up real soon, and for all the degenerates like myself who can’t help but put money on MMA, there are potentially some good opportunities to make some cash. And so begins my Gambler’s Trinity that (hopefully) will be discussed before each event. Basically, for each (big) event, I’ll pick three fights [...]
Controversial Decision #2: Lyoto Machida – Magic or Tragic(ally boring)
Lyoto Machida. One of the most polarizing figures in MMA today. On one hand, some people are saying he’s the best thing to happen to MMA – the next evolution of fighter, the epitome of skill both on the feet and on the ground. On the other hand, some fans think he’s the dullest fighter [...]
Controversial Decision #1: Mirko Crocop – Down or out?
Hello MMA enthusiasts. I’ve decided to start a weekly post called Controversial Decision – where I’ll make a cold, hard, judgment on an issue that is hot in MMA. First up – the Patron LHK of MMA (and the attached fighter, of course). Is everyone’s favourite Croation spent? After his unsuccesful stint in the UFC, [...]
DREAM 6 Preview
Dream 6 is probably the most stacked card I’ve seen this year, at least in recent memory. There will be good fights at every weight class, with top talent at every weight class, so if you have HD-Net, take a day off work or school tommorow, and stay up to watch. It’s going to be [...]
