Welcome to the TUF Morning After! Here are my fan boy reactions to the most recent TUF episodes the morning after they air, so if you haven't seen the latest episode this might not make sense to you, and I'm guaranteeing that there will be SPOILERS!
When you think of Jason "Mayhem" Miller, a lot of people think of the situation in Nashville in April of 2010. Perception should change this season as Miller along with Michael Bisping are the coaches for Season 14 of the Ultimate Fighter, which starts tonight with a two hour premeire at 9ET/8CT on Spike TV.
Miller was supposed to fight Aaron Simpson at UFC 132 in July and then lobbied to coach on the upcoming season as Chael Sonnen was supposed be one of the coaches, but could not get cleared due to suspension.
The bad blood between the two combatants in Saturday’s light heavyweight title bout continued to build at today’s press conference, with both champion Jon “Bones” Jones and Quinton “Rampage” Jackson interrupting each other’s answers and tossing insults at the other.
Today's UFC 135 Pre-Fight Press Conference takes place at the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colorado. The event will feature UFC president Dana White, headliners Jon Jones and Quinton Jackson, and co-headliners Josh Koscheck and Matt Hughes.
Earlier today Dana White, UFC Heavyweight Champion Cain Velasquez and Junior Dos Santos made their way to Los Angeles, California for the UFC on Fox: Velasquez vs. JDS Press Conference. The press conference was held at the West Hollywood Hotel in Hollywood, California.
It all began with UFC 129 in April of this year. The UFC decided to let fans enjoy every fight on the card even if they weren't live at the event via their Facebook page.
Dana White explained to El Octagono that in January of 2012 that agreement will come to an end.
We’ve been a bit spoiled by the UFC with the last stretch of free fights. This summer, the TV fight cards full of title ramifications, guaranteed slugfests or big name draws. The only big name that went into the Battle of the Bayou was Jake Shields. Of the eight main card fighters he was the only one to headline a paper-view or hold a major league title. By the end of the night however, a new name was solidified as a bona fide contender to a UFC title. His name is Jake Ellenberger.
Like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz when she says, "There's no place like home", that is what Dan Henderson is doing on November 19th.
MMAWeekly.com reported that Strikeforce Light Heavyweight Champion Dan Henderson (28-8 MMA, 4-2 UFC) has re-signed with the UFC and will be returning to face former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Mauricio "Shogun" Rua (20-5 MMA, 4-3 UFC) at UFC 139.
Included on the call are Jon Jones, Rampage Jackson, Matt Hughes and Josh Koscheck. Jon Jones and Rampage Jackson are joining us from LA where they’re doing Jimmy Kimmel Live tonight.
