A couple of days ago on MMAJunkie radio, Mike Pierce called out Thiago Alves and had some pretty decent smack talk regarding Alves on Facebook. On Twitter, Pierce said 'This place is as dead as Thiago Alves' and 'Thiago Alves to be featured on Biggest Loser on Dec 23rd'. He even asked Dana to gi...
It's the only MMA any of us will be seeing this week, so if you vehemently hate the sport of mixed martial arts, despise equally matched title fights and refuse to see spectacular finishes, don't watch Bellator 27 tonight on Fox Sports West. Your friends will make fun of you behind your back, but ...
For those of you who aren’t familiar with the Nick Diaz and KJ Noons rivalry, the beef started back in Elite XC where a controversial doctor stoppage handed Diaz his only loss in the past 3 years. Winning a fight due to a doctor stoppage in the first round is a lot like winning a competitive ea...
When the Kool-Aid man breaks through a wall in a commercial, all the kids start cheering. Imagine a seven-foot pitcher full of Kool-Aid breaking through your house screaming 'Oh yeah!', it's a horrifying thought. He might spill over and get some of himself on the carpet. The worst thing is, you ca...
In all fairness, the entire MiddleEasy crew was supposed to go to the UFC Fan Expo in a taco truck and serve up carne asada goodness for fans of the site. Sadly the idea didn’t work out after we learned that tacos are not an approved cuisine at the John B. Hynes Center. Not sure what Boston ha...
I could be looking too far into it, but when Dana says that you '[Expletive] the UFC' by pulling out of the fight the day before weigh-ins, it looks like that may denote a lifetime ban. In fact, it did constitute a lifetime ban in the promotion, but in ZUFFA years, a lifetime is only ten months....
The greatest thing about Alistair Overeem accepting Fedor's challenge to fight him after he's done with the K-1 Grand Prix is that he actually watched a Bloodstain Lane video on a message board and responded. Next step for Alistair Overeem is to accept my friend request on Xbox Live. The guy plays...
I used to think the meaning of life was somewhere inside the cut Jose Benevidez left on Miguel Torres’ forehead, but it turns out those were just Miguel’s deepest thoughts about the perfect plate of carnitas after a warm bath. If the meaning of life was actually hidden in plain site, it would...
A lot of people criticized Strikeforce’s decision to give Brett Rogers a title shot immediately following his loss to Fedor Emelianenko last year. This past spring, Ubereem agreed with those critics as he made short work of Rogers and ended his first title defense in just shy of four minutes. ...
Carlos Newton should be undefeated based on how cool he looks. The same goes with Sokoudjou or any other guy that competes in MMA with a full set of dredlocks. We all wanted them, but our parents firmly held onto the belief that long hair was a gateway drug that led to smoking marijuana, wearing t...

Before getting into this, we feel obligated to include some sort of disclaimer right up front. Throughout the years, we’ve seen some pretty wild stuff, but what you’re about to see entirely obliterates our faith in humanity. That being said, this will probably be the most horrific thing you’ll see today, unless you end up renting The Mummy from Blockbuster. You start with a 2 fighters in a ring, and that’s where the similarities between Shockfights and any other combat sports end. There are no judges, skill levels, weight classes, or rules; it’s just you, an opponent, and 3,000,000 volt tasers strapped to each hand. That’s not a typo. I proofread it. The only way to win is via submission or "shock out". According to the Shockfights Website, this new pastime combines the evolution of technology and MMA into a sport “too dangerous for those “ultimate” fighters…”
Although it’s currently banned in all 50 states and all throughout the entire civilized World, Michael Alexander (Shockfights Founder/President) has this to say:
When asked who can compete in shock fights, he said:
You can listen to the rest of his interview here. Check out one of their highlight videos from their first DVD:
Get the Flash Player to see this player. We’d normally just go ahead and file an article like this somewhere in our “WTF” section where it could hang out with Paulo Filho’s wardrobe, WAR Machine’s tweets, and James Toney’s interviews, but Shockfights forced us to create a sub-folder titled “Too Raw for WTF” just to keep us from confusing it with the remainder of everyday “WTF” stuff. Seriously though, please don’t rent The Mummy. Share this story!           |

4th degree burn is when it goes through the flesh and burns bone and organs.
No I am not joing, that is a real thing which apparently happens.
my actions are more epic than this sad excuse of a fight
good day
Shockfights should do a joint promotion with X-arm.
I would make it mandatory and even give out knives instead of shockers. That would clear out the urban hoods a little.
Somehow the "human cockfighting" comment makes sense again.
