Jorge Masvidal is a fighter. The dude was throwing bombs in backyards with Kimbo Slice looking on approvingly before you even knew who Kimbo was. Since then, “Gamebred” has racked up impressive victories over the likes of Yves Edwards, Joe Lauzon and now Billy Evangelista, just to name a few. We caught up with Jorge
We all remember the Bellator women’s 115 lb semi-final match that ended up being a split-decision win for Zoila Frausto over Jessica Aguilar. Of course a lot of you were upset, I remember the multitude of ‘WTFs’ that appeared on my Twitter feed when the judges gave the nod to Zoila Frausto. Granted, it was
Neil ‘Goliath’ Grove is a massive human being. A veritable genetic throw-back to when humanity had to slay mastodons and use their fat to fuel wooden torches that were then used to burn and pillage villages. I’ve always envisioned Neil Grove rocking a wolf pelt around his shoulder, with his chest covered by a necklace
It’s a rare moment when we get a grappling scoop over DSTRYRsg, but we pulled it off today. Since it’s Monday and the work week is just beginning, why not put off what you have to do for a little while longer and view the most dangerous guard we have ever seen developed entirely in
[div class=”notice” class2=”icon”]The following is from an article on MMA-Japan.com, part of the MiddleEasy Network.[/div] Mark your calendar – the Baka Survivor Shinya Aoki will be facing Lyle Beerbhom on the April 9th Strikeforce event. This comes from the man himself, Mr. Aoki. This should be a very exciting matchup as both have won by
I had a few really important and insightful questions to ask Greg Jackson Saturday night at the Strikeforce presser, so I approached him to see if we could chat on camera. Since Greg is a super nice guy he happily obliged. We headed to the back of the conference room but the lights were out,
Last night on Twitter, I made a comment somewhere along the lines of ‘Waachiim Spiritwolf should headline every card for Bellator, forever. Ever.’ Even twenty-four hours after Waachim Spiritwolf vs. Jaime Jara at Bellator 35, that statement still holds true, and unfortunately you guys were unable to see undoubtedly the bloodiest fight of 2011 and
Leave it to LayzieTheSavage to track down Tonya Evinger at the Bellator 35 after-party to see what she’s been doing since those infamous Gina Carano/Tonya Evinger pictures exploded on the internet a while ago. Of course you’ve seen them, so we’re not going to remind you what they were. From that set of party photos
It’s unfortunate that the entire MiddleEasy crew was busy getting content for the duration of Saturday night. We couldn’t deliver our trademark post-fight articles after the major fights, mostly because we were trying to nab every morsel of video we could from Strikeforce: Feijao vs. Henderson in Ohio, and Bellator 35 in California. Through hours
Jens Pulver is on a winning streak and he may be slowly turning into one of those My Pet Monster dolls because of it. Or it’s because he broke his foot in the first round. You choose. Last night Lil Evil pulled out the split decision victory over Wade Choate at the Chicago Cagefighting Championships
The Arnold Fitness Expo was jam packed with people. It was awful. I don’t usually get claustrophobic or uncomfortable, but when you are the typical nerd who sits inside all day working on a website, playing videogames and have the complexion of a glass of milk, you don’t take well to men with biceps bigger
Saturday night in Columbus was one of those evenings no one wants to go through. If it were up to us, a MiddleEasy Red Monster™ would be emblazoned on every single pair of shorts Melvin Manhoef owns. Seriously every pair. Even if Melvin Manhoef wears Dockers with flip flops and a Polo shirt tucked in,
After you watch this Kid Khaos video you may wonder if drinking Mountain Dew while smoking Black & Mild cigars enables previously unused sections of your brain to communicate with inantimate objects. You will probably get in your car and head out to 7-Eleven to pick up a 2 liter of Mountain Dew and a pack
There’s a victorious happy feeling you get when you pull the clothes out of the washing machine to put them in the dryer and see a crumpled soggy five dollar bill waiting there at the bottom just for you. You get that same feeling when the drive thru person at Taco Bell screws up your order and instead of
I’m a girl that likes boys, but after watching this MMAfighting.com Marloes Coenen fight journal I think now I might be in love with Marloes. I still really like guys though, so maybe it’s more like a girl or friend crush. I want to go punch stuff with her and then maybe go shoe shopping
If you are like me today, stuck at home alone on a dreary rainy day with no one to bake homemade cinnamon rolls for in your brand new thigh high socks then you should just turn today into an all out MMA-a-thon. I’ve found there’s really nothing better to make a day like today fantastic
