We’re twenty days removed from UFC 162 and I still find it incredibly unbelievable that Anderson Silva was actually knocked out by a relatively unknown fighter in Chris Weidman. Sure we know his name now, but you would be hard-pressed to find an MMA fan that could rattle off anything about Chris Weidman prior to
I’ve spent my entire weekend watching season 3 of RuPaul’s ‘Drag Race’ so I know a little something about crying and heart break. It’s a fantastic show if you want to discover how to apply make-up in order to contour your face to look like a middle-aged woman with Botox. Life lessons that the youth
We here at MiddleEasy don’t necessarily subscribe to the notion that there needs to be a pound for pound list. In fact, we would even argue that the only list you need is the official Frate Trane List, the qualifications are designed by Ray Kurzweil, so you know for a fact that this list holds
I must admit that I find it hard to watch Game of Thrones when I could fire up my Xbox 360 and play Skyrim instead. Dragons, swords, spells — it’s all the same thing really. Granted, Game of Thrones has more topless scenes than Bethesda could ever wedge into any Elder Scrolls game. Some of
Eventually we’re going to host a live streaming session in which we’ll get some guy out there to attempt to defeat Mike Tyson’s Punchout in one playthrough without losing a single round. If any of you guys are up for the challenge, just let me know in the comment section. There’s also another requisite, you
Anderson Silva vs. Chris Weidman, going down December 28th — with Ronda Rousey vs. Miesha Tate in the co-main event. This is something that most of you already sort of knew, but now that Dana White has confirmed it on ESPN just minutes ago, it’s official. Also, bummer for Invicta FC 6 to get counterprogrammed
We’re not even sure how we should present this rumor originating from Brazil. Technically it came from Brazil’s UFC Bahia — and quite frankly we have no idea the level of legitimacy this news source holds. Fortunately at MiddleEasy we love to entertain the imagination, therefore even the most bizarre conspiracy theories are treated like
We don’t think Nike planned to have Anderson Silva lose to Chris Weidman the same week they debuted their official ‘Anderson Silva Free Trainer 3.0’ shoe, but at the end of the day who really cares? Like The Oracle in The Matrix said: ‘nothing lasts forever,’ including Anderson Silva’s winning streak. These new Nike shoes
Joe Rogan claims Anderson Silva is human and every Anderson Silva fan refuses to believe him. That could be the summary of this clip from The Joe Rogan Experience when the crew attempted to make sense of what transpired at UFC 162. We know you’re never going to get tired of Anderson Silva related articles
Anderson Silva uploaded this post-UFC 162 vlog, then deleted it, then reuploaded it again in an attempt to further build the conspiracy theory that The Spider is actually a gamma-radiated spider, or whatever MMA theorists are claiming these days. The truth is we can all be a little emo, even the former UFC middleweight champion
Ever since Anderson Silva was knocked out by Chris Weidman at UFC 162 it feels like the entire universe has been rendered invalid. We can’t redeem our existence anymore. The benchmark of athletic perfection in the combat realm was Anderson Silva. He was the veritable measuring stick that we judged all fighters by. Now that
The ghost of UFC 162 will haunt you forever — or until Anderson Silva and Chris Weidman rematch later this year, whichever comes first. A few days ago we broke the news to the MMA world that Anderson Silva losing at UFC 162 could have been a very complex troll attempt that operated at a
Now if Anderson Silva does in fact fight Chris Weidman later this year and defeats him, does that nullify every conspiracy theory that was manifested last week? If he planned to lose to him in the first match, then why would he accept and defeat Weidman in a second match? For the PPV dollars? With
Going into the Matrix is a gift. Well at least if you’re name isn’t Neo. For Anderson Silva, tapping into this special effects-filled style of fighting was something that seemed unique to him as he weaved punches with ease all while looking at his opponents as if they were children. To Jon Jones, the surprising
Ahh yes, the life of a fighter. Train your butt off and maybe one day you’ll be regarded as the greatest fighter to ever put on the gloves. Only problem is once you reach the mountaintop, things could get a little boring. If you don’t believe me ask B.J. Penn who claims that perhaps a
Now that the dust has settled from UFC 162, the official salaries of the competitors from Saturday night has been released. With all of the recent talk about fighter pay, I think it’s worth noting that the new champion Chris Weidman made 48K while Anderson Silva made well “Anderson Silva money” by pulling in a
