TUF 14 contestant, Paul McVeigh, talks to us about this upcoming season

Paul McVeigh has won his last three fights during which he remained the Cage Warriors bantamweight champion as well as picked up the Cage Contender bantamweight belt. Basically, he’s the number one bantamweight in Europe. I recently visited The Griphouse gym in Glasgow, Scotland to meet with gym owner Guy Ramsey and was lucky enough

Behold the GOAT of Anderson Silva tribute videos in all its glorious glory

‘There are times when you’ll need someone, I will be by your side. There is a light that shines, special for you…’ This hook from the song, ‘The Light’ by Common autoplays in my brain everytime I see Anderson Silva fight. I don’t know why. Those lyrics by themselves sound like someone is singing about a guardian angel watching

Josh Barnett understands the importance of looting fallen enemies

If I were Josh Barnett’s manager, I would tell him to attend all media events with a skull painted on his face dressed as an Urak-hai Orc warrior. Dive in with both feet, that’s what I say. If the commission allows it, The Warmaster should at least be carrying a battle ax and a side

A Brazilian walks into a Sambo school

[div class=”notice” class2=”icon”]The following is from an article on DstryrSG, part of the MiddleEasy Network.[/div] I’m still working on the rest of the joke, but I know the punchline should be “I’m not wearing any pants.” From what I can tell, Alvaro Garnero is the host of a Brazilian travel-type, lifestyle show and he and

Rampage says Malki Kawa is dumb and full of excrement

When Rampage Jackson says someone is full of ‘expletive’ we should probably take heed and trust his observation. He was afterall, deemed an ‘official BS detector’ by Boost Mobile. That has to say something about his ability to sniff out and expose poop filled people, right? Maybe we should look a little closer at the accusation Rampage

Start Thursday off with a fantastic new Kid Khaos video

Waking up at 5am is almost never the most joyous of experiences, and doing so after a cutthroat fantasy football draft that lasted until nearly 2am makes it even more painful. Yesterday morning it felt like someone had just driven a spike through my frontal lobe, but I have to say it was worth the sleepy agony because

Enson Inoue wants you to buy a bracelet to save Japan

Last week, an 5.9 magnitude earthquake hit New York & I [b]completely missed it[/b] because I was incapacitated in front of the Kimchi Taco Truck. My lunch was immediately interrupted by a dozen text messages asking if I was all right and I had no clue what everyone was talking about.  While the thought of

Kurt Angle says he turned down an offer to fight for the UFC

I once turned down a job as a male model because it would require going on a taco-less diet for 4-6 weeks.  I also turned down a career for NASA’s space program because it conflicted with my weekly full-contact origami lesson.  The truth of the matter is: I was destined for a more humble lifestyle

Gogoplata=awesome Gogoplata on a DSTRYR sg logo=rawesome

I have so many feelings running through me concerning this sick Gogoplata that took place recently at the U of MMA somewhere in California, but then I always get kind of emotional whenever Gogoplata’s are the topic of discussion. If I had to pick my favorite fight ever, it would be Diaz/Gomi which we all
