Exercise your bromance: Watch Genki Sudo model for a Japanese surf company

Genki Sudo is the living embodiment of everything you’ve ever wanted to accomplish in your life manifested in the body of a 16-4-1 fighter.

The Judo Turtle Attack

[div class=”notice” class2=”icon”]The following is from an article on DstryrSG, part of the MiddleEasy Network.[/div] Here at DSTRYR/SG, we love all animals, including turtles.

Wait, so you’re telling me Paul Daley has 24 hours to cut 40 lbs?

If you ever want to watch your sports nutritionist blow a blood vessel, tell them you intend on cutting 40 lbs in one day. Today, that’s exactly what we learned about Semtex and how he drops to 170 on the day of the weigh-in, which is about as irresponsible as betting money on the Philadelphia

Get the popcorn ready, UFC is coming to your nearest theater…in 3D

Does anyone remember when I broke down what it would be like to watch an MMA event in the tenth dimension and no one even cared? Well needless to say, that won’t happen again. I will keep my spatial/temporal opinions to myself this time. There’s no need to share my beliefs on added dimensions when

[div class=”notice” class2=”icon”]The following is from an article on MMA-Japan, part of the MiddleEasy Network.[/div] For all intents and purpose, the K-1 Grand Prix is off this year unless someone pulls a magical rabbit out of a hat and turns it into sixteen kickboxers and a few sponsors.  This is the first harsh reminder since

GSP admits he cried when he pulled out of UFC 137

It takes a real man to admit they’ve cried and an even realer man to admit they’ve watched every episode of Project Runway since its inception on December 1st 2004. When it comes to testoerone, it can only be measured by how many Bravo shows one has followed in his lifespan. Chael Sonnen is incorrect, testosterone replacement

Watch Bas Rutten fight a crew of zombie puppets

If civilization was forced to restart due to some cataclysmic event (like a zombie apocalypse) experts believe Bas Rutten will not be the person to lead humanity back to normality. ‘Experts’ being my friends who sincerely believe zombies taking over the city of Los Angeles is a plausible scenario. In fact one of my friends is so adamant about this

Watch the final EA MMA Live Broadcast tonight!

I didn’t completely realize until I sat down to write this, but for all intents and purposes, this is the last EA MMA article on MiddleEasy.com. It feels strange and it hurts. This game has been a huge part of our lives here at MiddleEasy, especially for me personally. Back in 2009 the second article

Check out Mark Coleman and Heath Herring in Pride Mode on UFC Undisputed 3

Mark Coleman fought Fedor twice in Pride, both times he was victim to one of those impossible armbars Fedor throws down on people like meter maids throw down overly expensive tickets to double parked cars. When we asked Phil Baroni about the infamous Team Hammerhouse that we so often heard in Pride FC interviews, it
