Our host, Steve Cofield met up with George Sotiropoulos as he prepares to move past his first professional loss at UFC 127 against Dennis Siver. Sotiropoulos will now face Raphael dos Anjos at UFC 132. Cofield asks Sotiropoulos about the top Lightweights having off nights and losing their fights when it seems a shot at the title is on the line. Sotiropoulos says, “It’s a big mess right now. The guys who are up there…I think we’re all still up there, it’s just changed the timing of everything.”

Sotiropoulos was supposed to fight Evan Dunham who pulled out due to injury, but he thinks dos Anjos may be more dangerous than Dunham. Cofield also has a little fun poking at Wanderlei Silva‘s plastic surgery and asks what Sotiropoulos would get done.

Alexis Davis vs. Julie Kedzie is Not Kinda Like PG Porn

Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Henderson added Julie Kedzie vs. Alexis Davis to their fight card! Though we were all saddened that Gina Carano wasn’t medically cleared for her June return to Strikeforce—hey, what the hell? How.

Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Henderson added Julie Kedzie vs. Alexis Davis to their fight card! Though we were all saddened that Gina Carano wasn’t medically cleared for her June return to Strikeforce—hey, what the hell? How come we were all down on Nate Marquardt‘s junk (*Note I said down, ’cause his testosterone is low…whatever, that joke totally went over your head) to give us the truth and we don’t even know what kept Carano from fighting??? We are so sexist! Regardless, thank you Strikeforce for this match up between two pretty smokin’ hot tough ladies, as you can see by my side by side comparison above.

We’re not excited because Alexis Davis and Julie Kedzie are pretty. If you’ve watched any of those Ultimate Female Sexual Wrestling porn videos, you’d know “pretty” isn’t exactly a requirement to get excited. We’re actually excited to see two very capable women slug it out, roll around, and choke each other in hopes that maybe one day Dana White will welcome them into the UFC Octagon.

So we look forward to seeing these girls in compromising positions as they’ve looked in past fights,

Dana White said Marquardt Needed to “Man Up” Um…Wasn’t That What He Was Trying to Do?

Man, I’ve been waiting like four days to find out why Nate Marquardt was not medically cleared to fight in UFC on Versus 4 and was subsequently fired from the UFC. I even woke up.

Nate Marquardt and Chael Sonnen. What do these 2 men have in common?

Man, I’ve been waiting like four days to find out why Nate Marquardt was not medically cleared to fight in UFC on Versus 4 and was subsequently fired from the UFC. I even woke up early here on the west coast to make sure I didn’t miss anything or see if another media outlet got a jump on the story before Ariel Helwani today. And then there it was, Marquardt’s hour long explanation on The MMA Hour of how he had low testosterone levels and was under Hormone Replacement Therapy and blah blah blah… And I felt like Ralphie in A Christmas Story when he finally deciphered Little Orphan Annie’s decoder ring secret message: “Don’t forget to drink your Ovaltine.” I thought, “A crummy testosterone aid? Son-of-a-bitch!”

I mean surely, we were all expecting much more to be the case when Dana White exclaimed on Versus during the live fights:

“Nate Marquardt is going to have to man up and tell the world why he didn’t pass his medicals. When he does that, I think everyone will understand why he was cut from the UFC.”

And here we are…a vast majority of us, I think, that remain pretty unclear as to exactly why he was cut. I mean, Thiago Silva and Chael Sonnen are still listed as fighters in the UFC. Did I miss something? And is it pretty messed up that we’ve become kind of jaded to learning that these fighters are caught taking PEDs for whatever medical issues they have? I remember being so pissed when I learned Sonnen’s stellar performance against Anderson Silva was tainted by a failed piss test. Now, I’m just bored that Marquardt’s story wasn’t more intriguing. I was calculating the days it takes for marijuana to leave the body and thinking, “hey maybe he has a disease and requires medical marijuana usage. Poor fella! Yeah, that’s it. He doesn’t smoke for recreation.” Then I thought…”STD?” …Because that would have been a fun revelation. “Hey, is he pregnant?” I admit that one crossed my mind for a second, but more for my own amusement.

None-the-less, here we are facing another fighter who has failed his drug test due to elevated levels of testosterone in his system. I, for one am disappointed in Nate for taking a substance so close to his fight, because his wife couldn’t stand his mood swings, thereby risking how his pre-fight drug test would be determined. After all, he’s failed drug tests before, so of course you’re going to get tested beforehand. But I’m even more disappointed that this was the big story I’ve been waiting to hear. Thanks for wasting my time and eager anticipation, Nate. Dana White was right about one thing, Nate needed to “man up” and tell us why he failed. Maybe that was a hint from Dana and maybe we were made to wait because Marquardt’s “man up” levels had fallen too low.

Where to Stalk…Oops, We Mean “Meet” Arianny Celeste and Kenda Perez This Weekend!

UFC 132 goes down in Vegas this Saturday, which means, the most gorgeous women will be walking the streets of Las Vegas Blvd… Careful, these women definitely want your money. No hot chick is just.

UFC 132 goes down in Vegas this Saturday, which means, the most gorgeous women will be walking the streets of Las Vegas Blvd… Careful, these women definitely want your money. No hot chick is just gonna strike up a conversation with you at the circle bar in the middle of the casino because she actually likes you. Look at you. No.

But put away your wallet because Arianny Celeste and Kenda Perez will also be in town, and they will talk to you for free, mainly because someone else is paying them to do so, but why get caught up in logistics? Arianny Celeste will be at the LV Fight Shop this Thursday from 6pm to 8pm along with Natalie Skyy. Remember Natalie Skyy? Your forgettable favorite underdog MMA Ring Girl nominee from last year’s World MMA Awards??? Then on Friday after UFC 132 weigh-ins, you can find the lovely host of Spike TV‘s Best of Pride Fighting Championships show, Kenda Perez at Cadillac Ranch.

So take advantage of getting all your Maxim and Playboy back issues signed and maybe hold that handshake just a few seconds longer while gazing into their eyes, since this is the closest you will ever get to either of these ladies. Trust us, the security at UFC events, much like a ring girl’s body, is tight.
