Last week was the season premiere of The Ultimate Fighter show.. this time the coaches are Matt Hughes and Matt Serra who will be fighting at the end of the season sometime in December.
One of the fighters who I have always heard about but didn’t know much about, Mac Danzig, is in the latest season [...]
I probably won’t get to see it live.. but will probably stay up late to see if I can find somewhere on the ‘nets.
Here are my picks that I set up on MMAPredictions.com :
UFC 74 Picks. After the weigh in.
Randy Couture vs Gabriel Gonzaga: Gabriel Gonzaga
Roger Huerta vs Alberto Crane: Alberto Crane
Josh Koscheck vs GSP: [...]

If you’d like to compete for a spot on the next season, fill out the application and send it to the address on the application. It must be postmarked no later [...]
Another scientifically created quiz developed by the world’s top scientists in an underground lab in Geneva has come up with the most accurate way to determine which UFC fighter are you?
Using the latest in GPS tracking, Chinese herbal remedies, and 10 Kray supercomputers, it determined that I am Randy Couture.
I was a little worried that I might not be able to watch the season finale. Having just moved to a new place, I am still sorting out my cable and TIVO hook-up. Apparently, VoIP is not a preferred method for TIVO to get the cable information, so I will probably have to [...]
This fight was the typical grappler vs puncher fight between Lutter and Sell. Lutter’s wrestling was more than Sell could handle and Lutter took him down at will and held him down. Sell was pretty much neutralized on the ground and could not get off a decent punch before Lutter had him down. [...]
Check out Sherdog’s play-by-play if you didn’t catch the fights.
UFC 64 was one of the better cards since the Canada vs USA card earlier this year. We had the return of Franklin to defend his title against Anderson Silva.
Somehow Anderson Silva got a free pass for a title fight simply by beating [...]
In this episode, Matt Hughes drops in unexpectedly, much to GSP’s surprise. GSP didn’t want to stick around because he didn’t want to train or be around Hughes since GSP as the #1 contender will have to fight him.
They had all the fighters come into the gym and interviewed them individually to see who [...]
Tonight is the last welterweight match-up between Pete Spratt and Matt Serra. Pete Spratt is getting his second chance after losing against Chris Lytle.
Drago came back to the house to celebrate his win over Charles McCarthy. Drago gets waaay to hammered. Its already hard enough to understand the Long Island accent but [...]
The title from this episode stems from Charles McCarthy’s continual moodiness and negativity. One of the other fighters wrote on McCarthys’ list that he needs “a personality”. Thinking he knows who did it, McCarthy goes up to Drago to see “..if they have a beef.” Drago denies it but just based on the accusation [...]
Some of the coaches discuss the Scott Smith vs Travis Lutter matchup. Consensus is that the fight was a mismatch and Scott was thrown to the wolves by Serra and Drago.
Now that Jeremy Jackson is off the show, there is an open vacancy on Team No Love giving Pete Spratt or Rich Clementi a [...]
This episode was all over the place. It first starts out with everyone finding little red bumps all over themselves. Apparently, some sort of staph infection was brought in from the outside and got passed around to everyone from rolling around on the mats. The mats and gym in general are a breeding [...]
“If you bring it, I will bling it,” quotes Shonie Carter, in regards to his fascination with decorating everything in the house with paint and fake jewelry. I really think Shonie could get a side business hot gluing UFC hats. Mike Burnett doesn’t want his stuff blinged but it actually looked pretty pimpin’, [...]
This week fight was between Edwin “Bam Bam” Dewees against Gideon Ray.
If you haven’t seen the fight yet, make sure you do it on an empty stomach. Gideon Ray made a pre-fight prediction that “It is going to be an explosive, action packed and very, very bloody fight” and his prediction wasn’t very far [...]
This season is comprised of fighters who have fought previously in the Octagon but somehow never got beyond a certain point. This show will allow them the chance to get a $100,000 contract and a shot at the title.

Blue Team:
Rich Clementi
Mikey Burnett

Pete Spratt
Grey Team:

Shown on the SpikeTV broadcast:
Josh Koscheck vs Jonathan Goulet
(Strikes) Round 1 4:10
Excellent fight. I really didn’t know which way this fight would go since I am a fan of both Goulet and Koscheck. Koscheck came out with some nice stand-up. He professed in the post-fight interview that his training has [...]
Mas Cerveza por favor. That’s as good as my Spanish gets.
The UFC has gone bilingual and south of the border.
UFC en Español – www.ufcespanol.com
I have read on the boards thats the UFC is planning to do a show in Mexico eventually, so this is probably a good foray into [...]
Even though I don’t support the war in Iraq and disagree with our policy in the Middle East I completely support the troops in Iraq and feel for them that they have to be there.
I was happy to see that the UFC sent Randy Couture, Rich Franklin and Rachelle Leah on a goodwill mission to [...]
August 17 is the date to mark on your calendars, it is not just another Ultimate Fight Night but also the season premiere for The Ultimate Fighter Season 4 – The Comeback. There have been some leaks on the Internet already as to who is on Season 4 and who are the finalists. [...]
This Saturday we will have the rubber match between Andrei Arlovski and Tim Sylvia for the Heavyweight belt and the rematch between Tito Ortiz and Ken Shamrock.
The Fight Card:
Tim Sylvia Vs. Andrei Arlovski
Tito Ortiz Vs. Ken Shamrock
Dan Christison Vs. Frank Mir
Josh Burkman Vs. Josh Neer
Yves Edwards Vs. Joe Stevenson
Also fighting but may not be broadcast [...]
The show was excellent as usual. There still seems to be a lot of commercials in between the fights. I would suggest raising the rates that way we get more fights and less commercials.
Mark Hominick vs Jorge Gurgel
Decision (Unanimous) for Hominick
This seemed like it would be a good fight because we never really [...]
Another Ultimate Fight Night at the Joint in the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas. I am hoping that they show more than the 4 fights we were given for the TUF 3 finale.
Main events:
Chris Leben Vs. Anderson Silva
Rashad Evans Vs. Stephan Bonnar
Jonathan Goulet Vs. Luke Cummo
Additional fights that may not be broadcast:
Jon [...]
Though the finale was 3 hours long and only showed 4 fights, it was probably one of the best shows I have seen in a while.
The first televised bout of the night was Keith Jardine (from TUF Season 2) taking on Wilson Gouveia, a newcomer to the Octagon from American Top Team.
Though both of these [...]
