[div class=”notice” class2=”icon”]The following is from an article on MMA-Japan, part of the MiddleEasy Network.[/div] Whenever there is a option to turn closed captions on, on a Dream hype video.

Rafeal Feijao becomes the first man to defeat Yoel Romero

Sometimes dance offs happen in MMA, and one happened last night in Ohio. The first five minutes of the Yoel Romero/Feijao fight felt like the Anderson Silva Dance Party Invitational, but after Romero was finished hopping around on all fours, dancing around and taunting the former light heavyweight champ, the fight was on in the

Black metal reigns supreme. Blood will be consumed tonight and the darkness has claimed another soul for the inevitable war for the earthen plane between heaven and hell: Josh Barnett has submitted Sergei Kharitonov in the first round with an arm triangle choke.

Daniel Cormier is headed to the Heavyweight Grand Prix finals

Daniel Cormier just knocked out Bigfoot Silva in the first round with ease (I blame the Eminem walkout music curse).

Cormier who is no longer the Olympic wrestling prospect out of AKA, this dude is insanely legit and if MMA

King Mo defeats Roger Gracie with a first round KO!

We care, Mo. We care. King Mo just waltzed into Ohio and knocked out Roger Gracie in spectacular fashion with a heavy right hand in the first round.

Paul Daley defeats the Bulgarian Zombie Jordan Radev

Tonight is crazy, there are so many fights that I feel like Charlie in Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory when he samples some fizzy lifting drinks. Charlie and his grandpa learned a lesson that day; do not steal fizzy lifting drinks. I too learned a lesson, which is that all of these Eastern European fighters have

Proof that Russian Karate is a ridiculous notion

It’s not every day that we get an inside look at Russian Karate routines. The niche Russian martial art is practiced by few and no one knows the true origination of this extraordinary form of fighting. What we have been able to decipher from this extremely rare inside look at what seems to be a

Joe Son has just been sentenced to life in prison

Two years ago, I felt inspired to write my first article and submit it to MiddleEasy, as it appeared to be the only appropriate outlet. The article was about UFC & Pride veteran Joe Son facing up to 275 years in prison for the torture & gang rape of a woman. Zeus liked my article

Don’t forget about Feijao vs Yoel Romero live on HDNet!

It’s hard to describe in words exactly what Feijao Calvacante vs Yoel Romero means to me. I can’t remember the last time I was this excited for an undercard fight. In my minds eye, all I see is slow motion Raging Bull style face crushing action between former Strikeforce light heavyweight champ Feijao and Yoel

Get ready for Cung Le vs. Vitor Belfort going down at UFC 139

For those of you who probably have better things to do than prowl IMDB.com, Cung Le starred in the Tekken movie as Marshall Law. It was announced sometime in 2009 and was released in 2010. I haven’t seen the film, but it still does not negate the fact that I could beat you at any Tekken game. I
