It's another edition of Half-Cut picks where I make stupid choices. I never claimed to be able to read the future, but I will tell you that the fights tonight are going to be awesome. At UFC 139 I went a miserable (2-3). Maybe it was good that I had a few weeks to stew on it before UFC 140 in Toronto, Ontario. It was probably expected since I went (4-1) at UFC on FOX. Nonetheless we will rebound with a solid Half-Cut Picks for this upcoming card.
The weigh-in event for UFC 140: Jones vs. Machida is set to take place Friday, 4:00 PM ET, at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, CA. The event will broadcast live on Facebook, YouTube, and UFC.com
Mississauga's own Claude Patrick stands with a bit of a slouch, leaning back against the wall of the Bell Lighthouse Theatre, site of the UFC 140 press conference. His demeanor is so relaxed, if you weren't familiar with the sport you would assume he was waiting for a movie to start rather than gearing up for a main card pay-per-view fight in his hometown.
Shortly after Forrest Griffin got himself into some trouble for saying "rape is the new missionary" on his Twitter account and a day after Rashad Evans taunted his upcoming opponent Phil Davis by saying he's going to put his hands on him "Worse than that other dude at Penn State." Miguel Torres was spontaneously cut from the UFC.
UFC 140 goes down this Saturday Dec.10 at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Ontario and features a light heavyweight title match between Jon Jones and Lyoto Machida in the main event. Also fighting on the main card are Frank Mir vs. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, Tito Ortiz vs. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira.
MMASucka is live on scene from the UFC 140 pre-fight press conference and you can watch the stream live as well. Today the UFC 140 pre-fight press conference will be held at the Bell Tiff Lightbox in Toronto, Ontario.
Last time Lyoto Machida was in Toronto, he wasn't exactly the crowd favourite. He had the misfortune of being matched against one of the sport's most beloved fighters ever, Randy "The Natural" Couture. What's more, he took a move straight out of "The Karate Kid" and crane kicked Couture directly into retirement.
The crowd at the UFC 140 open workouts watched breathlessly as Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira threw a series of vicious combinations into the training mitts, each one quicker and more powerful than the last. The only times he paused was to send a smoldering glare in the direction of his opponent, Frank Mir, who was standing across the gym.
May 30, 2012. The words come out of the former Light Heavyweight Champion's mouth with the certainty of someone who was just asked what color the sky is. That is the expiration date of the career of one of UFC's all-time biggest pay-per-view draws..
