We caught up with UFC Lightweight, Sam Stout as he prepares to face Yves Edwards on June 11th at UFC 131. Stout, who is a good friend to Gray Maynard, gives his perspective of why Maynard may feel Anthony Pettis is not so impressive and called his previous opponents, “scrubs”. He may not agree with the term, scrubs but agrees Pettis hasn’t fought the level of competition that Maynard has. He also believes Maynard will be the champion once the rubber-match with Frankie Edgar is able to happen.
As the Lightweight division gets easier to be swallowed up into, Stout also tells us whether or not a move to the 145 lb division is in his future.

MMA30 is back with their series of photo shoots honoring the city that launched the MMA sport. This time, they called in Elizabeth Shue doppelganger, Natasha Wicks for a Leaving Las Vegas themed photo shoot. The pictures below show Wicks in a seedy motel room, naked in the shower, (*Note: the scene in the movie comes after Shue’s character was gang-raped…so try to put that out of your mind when perving out on the pics) and as a lady of the night.
Wicks looks good enough to charge the $1000 those pricey Vegas hookers jack me for when I’m innocently having a drink in the hotel bars after a UFC event.
Well, we guess Kim Couture didn’t pick up MMA fighting just to relate to her husband, ’cause Randy Couture divorced her in 2009 and she’s still putting herself out there, despite previously always looking like.

Kim will be facing Canadian, Sheila Bird in Calgary at AX Combat “Execution”. Bird holds a (1-0) pro MMA record while Kim Couture has a spotty (3-4) record. Couture’s record seems to alternate between wins and losses so by losing her last fight, she may be due for a win here, but Bird is a 3 year straight FILA Grappling World Champion and the “first Canadian female Black Belt” according to MM-eh. Whatever you think about Kim Couture, she seems bent to challenge herself with real competition. AX Combat “Execution” will take place on July 8th at Calgary Telus Convention Center.
Rashad Evans gave ProMMARadio a detailed version of his “Surrender” nightclub confrontation with Jon Jones last weekend in Las Vegas, and below is a transcript of the incident according to Evans *Note: my god, he.
Rashad Evans gave ProMMARadio a detailed version of his “Surrender” nightclub confrontation with Jon Jones last weekend in Las Vegas, and below is a transcript of the incident according to Evans *Note: my god, he seems to have memorized the incident word for word.
You can read Evan’s account below or wait for his appearance on HDNet this Friday night where he “SETS THE RECORD STRAIGHT ON RECENT CONFRONTATION WITH JON JONES” according to a press release from HDNet’s Inside MMA. Poor HDNet were probably thrilled to book Evans and get his side, but for a guy who says Jon Jones “couldn’t let it go” (which apparently started their confrontation) he sure seems eager to talk about it.
“I saw Jon this past week at the fighter summit and we were at the same location. He pulled me to the side and he said ‘Rashad, I need to talk to you, I think things are getting out of control.’ I thought it was pretty mature for the young guy instead of just ignoring me,” told Evans.
“First thing he said was ‘I just wanna be the first to tell you is I’m gonna destroy you, I’m gonna annihilate you and I’m gonna show the world you’re overrated. I’m gonna punish you and you’ll be my first highlight reel knockout’ and I just started laughing.
“You brought me out here to tell me you’re gonna destroy me? Let’s not even talk about how stupid that sounds. Why would you wanna come way over here to say that in private. Furthermore, how did you even come up with that? He’s like ‘Rashad, remember when I was catching you with knees and elbows in training’ but I said ‘I was simulating Bader. I wasn’t trying to beat you, Jon. I was simulating Bader and what he might do.’
“I told him, ‘Do you remember when I held you down and I was slapping you and punching you in the face and you were underneath me and you couldn’t move and then you looked me in the eye and said ‘Ok, can we get up now?’ and I said ‘No Jon, if you quit now, you’ll quit in the fight. You gotta earn your way up.’ So we fought some more and you couldn’t move some more and you said ‘can you help me?’ and I said ‘No, you have to earn your way up’ and we go for a little bit longer and you still can’t get up so you roll on your back to let me choke you out thinking I’d let you up and be satisfied with that but I didn’t. I continued to make you work up.’
“I said ‘do you remember that?’ and he said ‘yeah, I remember that’ and I said ‘that’s why you don’t want to fight me’ and he was just lost for words for a second and then he told me, ‘Rashad, you just motivating me. You don’t know what you started’ and it just went like that and it just ended when a couple people from our parties separated the two of us. He couldn’t let it go.”
Not to complain about our current wonderful UFC Octagon Girls, but WHY is it that Amber Nichole Miller left? It certainly can’t be because she let herself go after marriage. Miller recently did a photo.
Not to complain about our current wonderful UFC Octagon Girls, but WHY is it that Amber Nichole Miller left? It certainly can’t be because she let herself go after marriage. Miller recently did a photo shoot for Xyience and her body is still amazing. We have the two pics here and hope there are many more to come.
