Every morning I am shocked out of dreamland by an anxiety inducing alarm clock screaming at 5AM. The only times this event is less brain rattling and annoying are rolling over to see drunk text messages on my phone, the scent of freshly brewed coffee wafting throughout my apartment and knowing it is finally payday. Today, unfortunately–is not one

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

[div class=”notice” class2=”icon”]The following is from an article on DstryrSG, part of the MiddleEasy Network.[/div] As the captain of the dreaded internet grappling vessel, I’ve become somewhat of of an expert, a connoisseur, if you will, of the BJJ/Grappling  montage, highlight and/or so-called “hype” video.  The teaser video below hyping Braulio Estima for his superfight

[div class=”notice” class2=”icon”]The following is from an article on MMA-Japan, part of the MiddleEasy Network.[/div] Ask one person their three favorite memories from PrideFC.  One will likely be of their favorite fighter and his battle for the ages he had (Gary LaPlante would mention a CroCop fight), one might be the wonderful production elements of

I really don’t like golf at all. I normally wouldn’t even think about watching a golf video. Anything that involves me having to look at a bunch of people walking around in pleated khakis for the fun of it really ruins my day so I just try to steer clear of things like golf or

I’m not going to beat a dead horse. Alistair Overeem already tenderizes his own meat. However, I will say that Butterbean is the first MMA fighter that holds a nickname that serves as an accurate representation of his appearance. He could be a supervillian on ‘Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.’ Oh, was I the only

Prior to this video, I never knew Kendrcik Miree existed. Kendrcik Miree still doesn’t know that I exist, but that’s beyond the point. I’m not undefeated in my amateur and professional career nor do I have a name that deters the planet from getting on my bad side. ‘The Big Problem’ hails from Saginaw, Michigan

Fedor is such the fashionisto. First with his amazing collection of sweaters and now with starring/modeling in Russian clothing commercials. What will he do next? Maybe release his own specially formulated after shave or a line of fanny packs in his famous pastel striped sweater pattern. Whatever he does, if he markets it just like

You may be aware of the tapeless glove conspiracy at UFC 112 and perhaps even the lamentation given by Dana White after Ando’s theatrical performance. If you’ve heard of those two items, that’s great. You’ve officially passed today’s UFC quiz, now claim your reward. However, there’s a good chance that you’ve never heard of the

  Over the last couple of years you guys have all gotten to know MiddleEasy’s own contributing writer and the first fighter to ever wear the red monster in the UFC octagon here on MiddleEasy and you’ve gotten to see him do his favorite man dance a handful of times in the UFC since his start

‘Soccer Kicks and Bean Dip’ would be the only appropriate name for an MMA themed Mexican restaurant. It would be a risky business endeavor in order to capture a very niche market, a market that could only be expressed by an audience that appreciates the symbiotic relationship of empanadas and people getting punched in the

[div class=”notice” class2=”icon”]The following is from an article on MMA-Japan, part of the MiddleEasy Network.[/div] If you’re at all like me you’ve tried your very best to avoid reading the results of the last Dream event, and failed miserably. The internet is simply too fast for me. On the other hand, television in 2011 is

If you’re sitting down right now, then your legs are getting the appropriate rest they need to watch this video. If that didn’t make any sense, then perhaps you need to watch the first video as to why Fedor Emelianenko caught an L to Bigfoot Silva earlier this year. The reasoning was sound and the
