We’ve been intrigued by this promotion coming out of Africa called EFC — and it all stems from Halo 2. According to the game, sometime in the far future a megalithic city emerges somewhere in Africa called New Mombasa. Eventually it gets attacked by aliens known as The Covenant and humanity has to rally to
The only way you can truly train to face a Frate Trane is to eat toy cars for breakfast and urinate excellence throughout the day. You must then pour this excellence in a glass and drink it, Lyoto Machida style. With enough time, every human byproduct that your body can produce will be instilled with
There are some things in life that are just givens. A girl with a very low cut shirt walks by-all men and honestly most women’s eyes are instantly drawn to the cleavage. It’s a given. Today while Bauzen is awake he will think about tacos in any derivative of definition at least 12 times today. This too, is a given.
Put the weird dance off that was the first round aside and we had a memorable slugfest between two heavy handed 205’ers on the Strikeforce prelims Saturday night. Feijao’s performance was impressive, but what’s more impressive is the fact that he entered that wild second round with a broken arm and still pulled out the

It’s hard to describe a person like Paul Daley when you’ve spent years using every adjective, metaphor and comedic exaggeration to depict his punching power.

And, it’s actually legal for black belts (and brown belts). I thought it was completely illegal in IBJJF rules, but I was wrong. Now I’m going to bicep crank the crap out of every brown
I trained hard for this article. Had to put in a long eight-weeks at Camp Anawanna to get my Ug-Jitsu on par with everyone else. My Donkeylips Kung-Fu is strong enough to step into the mosh-pit of a Killer Tofu concert without being hurt. I think ‘I need more allowance‘ was their best song, but they
