For citizens of the U.S., service in our nation’s military is strictly a
voluntary opportunity.
For “The Ultimate Fighter 11” cast member Kris McCray (5-0 MMA, 0-0
UFC), his enrollment in the Army wasn’t quite as optional.
“After I graduated high school, I went to the Army Reserves,” McCray
told MMAjunkie.com. “My whole family is military: my
dad, my grandfather – all my brothers went in, except for one. You kind
of have to in my family, and I was getting in a lot of trouble, so my
dad was like, ‘You’ve got to get out of here.'”

As the UFC continues its global expansion, U.S. fans are left in a
quandary increasingly more often.
Accustomed to watching pay-per-view events that start at 10 p.m. ET/7
p.m. PT on Saturday night, fans are now forced to decide how they will
view the fight promotion’s international events.
While the start time of UFC 110 in Australia was adjusted to accommodate
for the massive time difference, that won’t be the case for the UFC’s
first trip to the Middle East. So for our
MMAjunkie.com/”Inside MMA” poll, we asked our readers “When will you be
watching UFC 112?”

UFC 108 co-main event fighter Dustin Hazelett (12-5 MMA, 5-2 UFC) is not
in any rush to jump back into the octagon.
The 23-year-old native Kentuckian is suspended until July 2 for a
fractured orbital and nasal fracture he sustained in his fight with Paul
Daley and just last month returned to the gym to work on his gi
jiu-jitsu.
But unlike many fighters who profess they’re restless to get back into
the octagon as soon as possible, Hazelett is playing his return by ear.

If there’s one guy on the cast of “The Ultimate Fighter 11” who wishes
PRIDE rules were in effect in the U.S., it just might be Clayton
McKinney (4-2 MMA, 0-0 UFC).
After all, he’s been using soccer kicks for years.
“Soccer was the sport that I played my whole life,” McKinney told
MMAjunkie.com. “I think that’s why I kick so damn
hard.”

Move over Jeff Monson; you’re not the only anarchist on the block

(12-3 MMA, 0-0 UFC), cast member of “The Ultimate Fighter 11,” told
