The WEC will merge with the UFC in 2011

It finally happened. After years of people claiming they ‘overheard something at a bar’ and (or) ‘intercepted text messages’, the inevitable happened: The WEC has merged with UFC. Everything, folks. The UFC will add two additional weight classes and will combine the 155lb talent into UFC’s lightweight division in 2011. Hold on to whatever seat

GSP invites his chain-smoking french friend to the TUF 12 house

When Georges St. Pierre fought Josh Koscheck for the first time at UFC 74, I remember some middle-aged guy sitting next to me kept insisting that he will ‘see St. Pierre in hell’ for some unbeknowst reason. This guy was adamant in his claim — but I don’t fully understand the reasoning why a person

Nick Ring is looking for a date on Craigslist

Nick Ring is lonely and looking for a date on Craigslist. That’s pretty amazing in itself, but even more amazing is that this ad was posted on the ‘men seeking women’ section of Craigslist – Las Vegas. We now finally have solved the Nick Ring sexual preference question that has been keeping us up every

Bob Reilly’s crusade against MMA in New York continues

As if the New York MMA obstacle course needed any more pitfalls. Now assemblyman Bob Reilly has gone into political ‘beast mode’ in a recent debate — and things don’t look that good for the legalization of the sport in NY. If the collective force of MMA was the equivalent of the Justice League of

Patrick Cote has been released from the UFC

Patrick Cote made his UFC return at UFC 113 since slipping on the Bud Light logo and severely messing up his leg at UFC 90. I’m going to side with Fightlinker and go with the conspiracy theory on this one folks. The Bud Light logo so obviously screwed up Cote’s knee that it almost has

Cro Cop is interested in replacing Shane Carwin at UFC 125

Whenever a job application asks me what talents I have, it’s hard not to tell them that I know all the words to every song from the Wu-Tang Forever album. One day that’s going to be a recognized talent. I can play Contra really good, that needs to be approved. I can get an extra

I guess everyone can abandon the theory that Cain Velasquez can’t punch

Prior to UFC 121, there was some delusional notion that Cain Velasquez has ‘pillow hands’ which is rather nice way of saying ‘the dude can’t punch’. It all originated on the UG (like most things do in MMA) and it was somewhat squelched by Cain’s knockout of Big Nog at UFC 110. It marked the

Watch Matt Horwich discuss the multiverse and meeting his wife on Craigslist

Reggie Warren Jr. is the only person qualified to step in for Ariel Helwani if he calls out sick from work. Unfortunately, MMAFighting.com probably doesn’t have enough liability insurance to cover imminent altercations as a result of Reggie drinking on the job. In any case, Reggie can take ownership of some of the finest MMA

Watch Seth Petruzelli mark his territory on Tom Lawlor’s Girlfriend

If there’s one thing you’ve learned from watching The Ultimate Fighter on Spike TV, it’s never to eat another man’s bowl of fruit. Men generally urinate in their food as a sign of marking their territory. Although the MiddleEasy office refrigerator is pretty much down to bare condiments and a loaf of month-old wonder bread,

This may be the greatest video Bloodstain Lane ever made

Some of you may have beef with Bloodstain Lane, but isn’t that his allure? He’s the guy that some of you love to hate, but have built a visual addiction to his YouTube videos over the months. Now that he’s upgraded to an HD setup, you can almost see the seething disrespect he exudes for
