If I told you that I wasn’t interested in Wallid Ismail’s translation of Paulo Thiago’s post-fight interview, I would be completely lying to you. You would literally have to slap me in the face for telling you a blatant lie. It’s cool, I’m used to it. Unfortunately, tonight we will not be blessed with that
Maybe we should change take off the ‘Weekly’ and replace it with ‘Monthly’ on our polls. Last time we asked you three questions that very well may change the course of human history. The first of these questions was ‘Who will appear on the next season of TUF?‘. With 47.2% of the vote, The Bearded
In the past couple of days, James Toney has been discussed on every MMA-related media source, Jim Rome, ESPN, Sirius Radio…I even heard my taco vendor talking about it in Spanish as he was serving up my Al-Pastor. I don’t speak Spanish. All I understood from eavesdropping was that the dude mentioned James Toney and
Wallid Ismail needs to break down Mark Coleman’s door one night and steal his nickname from whatever file cabinet he keeps it in. If the world is ill, Wallid Ismail is the true antidote. If Jesus works in mysterious ways, Wallid Ismail works by grabbing the microphone and saying whatever the hell he wants. Mike
I was going to let my letter stretchers make my UFC 109 picks but they don’t talk much so I guess I’m on my own tonight. If you don’t know what letter stretchers are then you haven’t been keeping up with the MiddleEasy crew over on Twitter and you my friends are missing out. On
If you’re wondering why Clay Guida wasnt included in the first UFC Undisputed then today is your day. Today, will be the day in which your day will be made. Clay Guida is so raw that THQ couldn’t put him in UFC Undisputed 2009 because he crashed the game every time he would appear on
When Strikeforce announced that Herschel Walker was going to join the Strikeforce heavyweight roster, Scott Coker immediately followed up with: “This isn’t a publicity stunt or a gimmick…Herschel Walker has tremendous athleticism, and he has always shown that off the gridiron. He’s accomplished a lot in his life and in the world of sports. His
The past twenty-four hours has been an orgy of unexpected fight announcements and last-minute replacements for some guy named TBA. Everytime we planned on telling you guys about an announced fight, another one fell threw the pipeline (the imaginary fight announcement pipeline of MMA) and we just stopped what we did, grabbed a beer and
Looks like Dan Hardy has been training with Miss Cleo. Recipient of the 2009 award for best mouth-guard, Dan Hardy revealed to Nottingham.co.uk that he is in fact a pioneering time traveler. Despite Mike Swick and Dan Hardy having ‘pleasant conversations’, it didn’t save Swick from the beating that he just gave him. Hardy predicted

Seems like there may be a more than just the Undisputed curse floating around the UFC lately as TUF fighters went 0-5 at UFC 101, in fact, starting at UFC 98, the TUF crew has gone a combined 3-15 over the last few PPV’s since UFC 98. Not only are they getting beaten but they
Last week after his win over Thiago Alves, George St. Pierre said he drank so much he forgot his whole name. For a canadian, that’s a lot of alcohol. For a normal human being, that’s enough liquor to make you time travel. Alcohol is like X-Kryptonite to GSP, only a true comic book aficionado would
Luckily for Mike Swick voodoo dolls don’t work. Of course I could have told you that because my wife is still nagging me a loving woman. According to Swick’s blog Mr. Fitch was demonstrating how he plans to rip Mikey’s arm off if they ever meet in the Octagon; sadly Swick’s brand new action figure
Yes, that is an accurate headline. No click bait to be found here. Watch this video of Jean-Claude Van Damme hook-kicking Cody Garbrandt in the mouth. My favorite part of the video is how instantaneous and inauthentic JCVD’s apology is. You watch the man intentionally hit Garbrandt in the mouth, and then immediately pantomime
Of course fight fans have always been curious about the idea of inter-gender competition. It’s inevitable. Once women fought on a large enough stage in MMA, how could we not speculate on potential man vs. woman matchups? For years, astute fight fans called for Ronda Rousey to take on Miesha Tate’s water boy Bryan Caraway.
When we last checked in with Mark Hunt he was still pretty pissed off at Brock Lesnar and the UFC. They say time heals all wounds and it looks like slowly but surely Hunt is coming around to the idea of fighting for the UFC again. After rumors surfaced of Hunt fighting Alistair Overeem at
