Just days after the WWE released footage of their newest video game release WWE:12 which features Brock Lesnar, UFC President Dana White comments on this move. Well it's not so much a move, but money for Brock. White makes a point to the media that it doesn't matter if he's in a video game for the company, but Brock will not wrestle in the WWE while he is under contract with the UFC.
We are a couple of weeks away from a highly anticipated match up between Georges St-Pierre and Carlos Condit. GSP is commonly referred to as a safe champion and fighting to win, not finish. In this fight however GSP has declared that he will be able to finish Condit.
Here we go with a two fight episode! That means less pranks, talk, and house shinanigans, and more fights!
We start off with a classic grappler versus striker match with Dennis Bermudez of team Mayhem versus Stephan Bass of team Bisping. Bermudez's laid out his game plan perfectly in his pre-fight comments. He said he will "Put a blanket on him and try to suffocate him," and that is exactly what happened.
With the announcement of tickets on sale and the official main card for UFC 140 the UFC wasted no time in holding a press conference for the event. Today at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Ontario Main Card fighters, Jon Jones, Lyoto Machida and of course UFC President took part in the press conference.
When you first heard the name Brock Lesnar, people thought instantly of his fame in the WWE. Well ready or not, Lesnar is coming back in a very unique way.
It was announced today that the former WWE and UFC Heavyweight Champion will be appearing in the new WWE video game, which is titled WWE:12. The game being released by THQ will hit stores on November 22nd.
Gilbert Melendez's entry into the UFC is going to have to wait a little bit longer.
After rampant specualtion that Melendez will be fighting at least one more time in Strikeforce.
It was made official today by Strikeforce that Melendez (19-2 MMA, 9-1 SF) will be defending his Strikeforce Lightweight Title against Jorge Masvidal (22-6 MMA, 4-0 SF) on December 17th at the Valley View Casino Center in San Diego.
First, I’d like to thank Jose Aldo for giving me the opportunity to compete for the featherweight title last Saturday. I gave the fight my all, but Jose won that night. I would also like to thank the UFC, Dana White and Lorenzo Fertitta for their continued support.
One of MMASucka's favorite TUF Veteran's Nam Phan took on Leonard Garcia in their anticipated rematch at UFC 136 this past weekend. Phan won the fight by unanimous decision and has stated he wants to move up the UFC featherweight ladder.
At UFC 136 Chael Sonnen made his return to the octagon for the first time since his loss to Anderson Silva almost 14 months ago. He took on a very game Brian Stann and handled him with ease, finishing the fight in the second round via arm triangle choke.
With a sport that has been proven time and time again that anything can happen, the UFC 136 bout card was put together to manufacture a guaranteed win for all fans. If you're the type that picks and chooses which events to watch at home, this one was a no-brainer to get the most bang out of your 59.99 HD pay-per-view bucks. We knew that the main event was going to be as epic as a Hollywood movie fight scene. We knew that Kenny Florian was going to be the toughest test Jose Aldo was going to face. We knew Chael was going to spit some outrageous banter once he had a chance to grab a mic. We knew that we were going to want to see Phan versus Garcia fight a third time, even though they haven't yet fought the second time. Kudos again to Joe Silva. Job well done. My turn to take a crack at picking who's next for the winners and losers of last night.
