Friday is the day in which we post a bunch of MMA stories that we just did not have the time to cover on MiddleEasy. It’s all under the guise of ‘The Friday Morning MMA Link Party’ so it sounds like an exclusive and interactive club. In reality, it’s a way to publish twelve stories
Liam Fisher must feel like a South American drugs baron would after buying a stubborn police chief right about now. His competition will both praise him and will jealously want to soccer kick him in the head, Vale Tudo style. If you didn’t know, Liam is the head of BAMMA, and has just secured a

Getting my wisdom teeth pulled was one of the worst experiences of my life. A few hours after I got home in a drug fueled daze, a perfectly sized chunk of cottage cheese got into one of my holes. No one believed my pain. I just popped pills and sweated a bunch until I went
Despite the fact that I only asked seven questions when I interviewed Jason Reinhardt earlier in the week, the phone call still almost reached the two hour mark. Jason Reinhardt is a man of many words. The Miletich product and current member of Wand Fight Team has stories, tons of stories, ranging from promoters getting
I’ve had multiple arguments with my ex roommate OB over the caliber of athletes in more mainstream sports compared to those in MMA. OB says NBA players and guys in the NFL are light years beyond the best MMA stars, and I couldn’t disagree more. Our verbal wars got more and more heated until I
