As soon as I saw MMAFighting.com break the news that Gilbert Melendez would be defending his title against Jorge Masvidal, I texted Juan Carlos Faraldo, Masvidal’s strength and conditioning coach and Miami Hustle co star to express my excitement over this FOTY candidate.

Coming up through the regional midwest shows in MMA’s heyday, Reinhardt trained at the infamous Miletich Fighting System’s gym in Battendorf, Iowa. After a broken back in 2001 kept him out of the
I will never forget the first time I saw Houston Alexander fight. It was back at UFC 71 in 2007 when he literally exploded his fists all over Keith Jardine face like a string of 500 Black Cat firecrackers. I blame this fight for Joe Rogan’s overuse of the term ‘explosive’ when describing black mma

I’m sure when most people think of Donald Cerrone, the first thing they imagine is the Cowboy hat and his confident ‘I don’t really give a four-letter word about what you think’ attitude. If your brain is like mine and has it’s own personal inner DJ, it probably automatically selects theme music whenever you start pondering about a particular
I’m not familiar with Rampage Jackson’s television habits, but I’m sure he didn’t cry when Santino Rice was kicked off Project Runway in season two. I’m not too proud of that moment in my life, but to be fair I was just an emotional wreck. I couldn’t bare to see the competition continue another minute
We gave birth to the term ‘Hairrow’ in MMA’s lexicon and since then it’s been the most least imitated fashion in the world. Look, not everyone can pull off the Hairrow. The fact is, the Hairrow chooses you. If your chest hair isn’t worthy, whatever design you intend to carve in your torso will loudly

Yes, the master tapes for M-1 Global as in the only ones in existence. This morning I stumbled on an eBay listing that is so incredible, I will celebrate tonight by going to Red Lobster. MMA sites will rip this info and not even give MiddleEasy even a hint of a mention, but it’s cool.
