This Saturday the UFC returns to Las Vegas for UFC 137 and in preparation the fighters took part in Wednesdays Open Workouts. Following each fighters open workout the media had an opportunity to catch up with them and see how their last minute game plans are going. Thanks as always go out to Ariel Helwani of MMAFighting.com, Megan Olivi of HeavyMMA.com and Karyn Bryant of MMAHeat.com for always asking such great questions. So instead of going to YouTube.com and searching for each individual video, MMASucka has put them all into one place for your. We like to call this 'One Stop Shop'.
This site is blessed with some good writers (I’m not one of them) who are usually pretty good at predicting fights. Nostradamus holds nothing on the MMASucka crew; well actually hang on, we’ll see on December 21, 2011 - that whole end of the world thing. Boy wouldn’t we look like a bunch of retards if the Mayans and Nostradamus were right.
How many times has the UFC had to change up this countdown show? They must have edited it down like crazy. First it was Georges St-Pierre vs. Nick Diaz, then it was Georges St-Pierre vs. Carlos Condit and now it's BJ Penn vs. Nick Diaz. None the less tonight is the premiere of The Countdown to UFC 137.
Come join the fellas from MMASucka/Dominant Ground at Schanks Sports Grill in New Westminster for everyone's favorite UFC night. As usual, we will have our fan favorite PICK 'EM contest, and our Trivia Contest with prizes awarded throughout the night. Also, we will be taking entries for the MMASucka / Round 5 MMA Halloween Fighter Costume Contest!
This isn't extremely news worthy, but it is damn funny. When Pat Barry took on Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic at UFC 115 he had too much respect for him and was ultimately submitted because of this. Cro Cop brought in Barry as part of his camp for his upcoming fight against Roy Nelson at UFC 137.
