Fabricio Werdum explains why he calls Alistair Overeem his ‘son’

I have a friend named Noel and after every statement, he likes to throw the word ‘son’ at the end. He compared it to a samurai wiping the blood off his blade after he chopped someone’s head off. Therefore, try to use ‘son’ at some point in the week. Proper usage would be ‘you tripped

Tim Sylvia talks about his loss to Abe Wagner

Every time I read a Tim Sylvia interview I hear it in the Matt Damon Good Will Hunting “Bahstin” accent. If I ever run into big Tim I will ask him to say “how do you like dem apples?” and then make him do impressive math for me. I am easily amused by advanced, MIT

Bob Sapp just made a highly confusing promo in Japan

Bob Sapp is like a marketing God in Japan. The guy pushes gummy candy, Japanese pizza joints, fabric softener and loves to rip the tentacles off of weird plush Japanese squid creatures on live TV with his shirt off. Bob Sapp has cornered the market for guys that like to wear feather-lined robes — he

A new edition of ‘Baller or Buster’ is here

February is here which means that Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. It’s around a corner on a street that I will never travel on. Sad face. Hopefully this new edition of Baller or Buster will serve as a replacement for all the poor schmucks that don’t have any plans for this Valentine’s Day.

Alan Belcher can use both eyes and has been cleared to fight

I wish the snow in Chicago was coming down harder so I would have some sort of excuse for the foolish scene I just made in my apartment parking lot. I just arrived home from the store where I was stocking up on supplies in case our power goes out tomorrow (due to the massive

Dana White finally gives his opinion on the Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand-Prix

When CNN interviewed the victims of Hurricane Katrina, most said ‘I could have been dead — or even worse’. That ‘even worse’ they’re talking about is being a victim of Dana White’s verbal wrath. Distance is no obstacle for Dana, he can call you an [expletive] from half-way across the world and there’s absolutely nothing

Two belts will be up for grabs at Strikeforce: Ohio

In 1974 a tornado destroyed most of Xenia, Ohio and set the stage for the greatest movie of all time: Gummo. It taught us that midget strength is unparalleled when compared to that of a regular-sized human being and if you want to get back at someone in the most deceptive manner, just step on

Finally, Melvin Manhoef has a highlight video of epic proportions

Something happened at Dynamite!! 2009 and it involved Melvin Manhoef setting off some type of explosion on Misaki’s forehead. Since the event, I didn’t get a chance to check out the replay on my DVR, but it appeared to be a right hook followed by an early stoppage. Actually, King Mo and Jason High just

Nick Diaz breaks down the competition

I bet within ten minutes of meeting you, Nick Diaz could sum up your entire life into two excruciatingly soul baring sentences. The Gracie Fighter might not even have to meet you, someone could show him a Polaroid of your goofy visage and he will break down your existence within a matter of moments and

Check out our new feature: Cooking with Tim Kennedy

  Anyone who has lived through the age 19-24 understands that unless you are going to culinary school, you are going to ruin your boxed mac and cheese and have to resort to plan B: frozen pizza. I am one of those people who somehow ruins boxed mac and cheese. Only until recently have I

The Sunday Morning Rumor Mill

Now that Strikeforce: Diaz vs. Cyborg is wrapped up in the MMA history books and filed under the category of ‘M’ for ‘My god this Nick Diaz…’, we all have UFC 126 to look forward to next weekend. But before we magically skip ahead six days in the future, the world must fully encounter this
