UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones has beaten a who’s-who’s list of opponents. Those include 5 former 205lbs title holders, Rashad Evans, Quinton Jackson, Lyoto Machida, Mauricio Rua and Vitor Belfort. That seems like quite the task, however UFC President Dana White does not feel that it pu...
The Ultimate Fighting Championship don’t get to visit Minnesota very often. Not since George St. Pierre defended his 170-pound crown against Jon Fitch at UFC 87 have them invaded Vikings Country. While technically the main event was a heavyweight clash between Antonio Silva and Travis Browne, all...
Fuel TV is the younger sibling of the FOX media group. There aren’t a lot of folks in North America that can get the station of their cable packages and the numbers are less than earth-shattering when they come in. With that information at hand, I guess it would be safe to assume these cards […]
When Cub Swanson ran over Charles Oliveira at UFC 152, you couldn’t help but to be happy for the Palm Springs native. After nearly a decade in the sport, Swanson finally emerged into a main-card slot and made the most of it with a right-hook which finished his favoured opponent. Having his hand r...
This past weekend Jon Jones proved that he is still the king of the light heavyweight division by beating Vitor Belfort at UFC 152. It didn’t go without a bit of a scare, as Belfort locked on a super tight armbar early in the first round. However, Jones managed to escape and finish the round. […]
Leave it to me to take a shot at my good Canadian brothers and sisters over there in the centre of the universe. Vancouver has got its fair share of “excrement” hurled this way from out east over the years, so it’s time to throw some back.
At UFC 152, the Toronto fans showed a lack of respect towards co-main event fighters Demetrious Johnson and Joseph Benavidez. Not too long into the fight the crowd began booing. I find this completely disrespectful, not only towards the fighters but towards all the hard work that everyone surroun...
As Jon Jones approached the cage last night, Bob Marley’s “Could you be loved” blasting through the arena, expectations were low for the main event. Vitor Belfort, for what he has accomplished in the sport, was considerably smaller and less dynamic than the young, some would say brash, New York s...
UFC 152 went down from the Air Canada Center in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on Saturday night. The main event we saw Jon Jones defend his light heavyweight championship against Vitor Belfort.

The Ultimate Fighting Championship have always enjoyed taking the trip north of the border with Toronto remaining one of their key hotbeds since they invaded the largest city in Canada. The Torontonians in attendance certainly got their money’s worth tonight with two pieces of championship gold o...
The Ultimate Fighting Championship have promoted over 200 events worldwide since its inception, but none have presented a featured fight perceived to be as lopsided as Saturday’s light-heavyweight title fight between Jon Jones and Vitor Belfort. Jones, the 13-to-1 favorite this weekend, has been ...
The trash talking continues, as Michael Bisping heads into his UFC 152 fight with Brian Stann. Stann, not known for being outspoken has not been throwing words at Bisping. However, the Brit has definitely not held back. He spoke with UK’s ESPN and had choice words for Stann. “A stupid mistake asi...
Former UFC light heavyweight champion Rashad Evans has taken on a coaching gig and it’s not on this season of The Ultimate Fighter. He has taken Vitor Belfort under his wing and his helping him prepare for one of the biggest fights of his career against Jon Jones at UFC 152. Belfort decided to ta...
We all make decisions in life that have big ramifications. Which college or university do I go to? Should I even go? Should I take the job offer? Should I ask her out? Or simply, has the milk really gone bad? In the world of MMA, the magnitude of decisions is no different. In my […]
It seems everywhere I look inside the world of caged fisticuffs I see bad news – Eight Main Events on the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s 2012 calendar have fallen to pieces, the injury bug is running rampant and it’s all been capped off with the cancellation of UFC 151. At one stage I strongly ...
After an overwhelming amount of votes, it came in clear that many people believed that Jon Jones should in fact have fought Chael Sonnen at UFC 151. According to UFC President Dana White, Jon Jones and his team (Greg Jackson) were to blame for the cancellation of UFC 151. Dan Henderson pulled out...
