Mark Munoz is a former NCAA wrestling champion, but Yushin Okami showed in their UFC fight Sunday that a good sprawl can be effective against even the best wrestlers. Okami simply wouldn’t allow Munoz to take the fight to the ground, and as a result Okami won a split decision.
The story of the fight was Munoz trying takedown after takedown, and Okami responding with sprawl after sprawl. The result was two judges scoring it 29-28 for Okami, and one scoring it 29-28 for Munoz.

Jon Jones has found a winning formula, and he’s sticking with it: He takes down his opponents and lands vicious elbows on the ground until the referee has to stop the fight.
That’s what Jones did to Matt Hamill in December (when Jones actually lost the fight by disqualification because one of the elbows was ruled illegal), that’s what Jones did to Brandon Vera in March, and that’s what Jones did to Vladimir Matyushenko on Sunday night.

As James Toney talks up his UFC 118 fight with Randy Couture, he makes so many outlandish, over-the-top comments that you’re never sure how much of it he actually believes and can back up in the Octagon, how much is a delusional overestimation of his own boxing skill and underestimation of Couture’s MMA skill, and how much is pure hype that he doesn’t believe for a minute.
But whatever the case, it’s always entertaining.
In a live chat with MMAFighting.com, Toney belittled the punching prowess of MMA fighters in general and Couture’s striking in particular, and he said that while he admires Couture for having the, um, guts to fight him, he doesn’t think anyone in MMA can touch him standing up.

Newer fans of mixed martial arts know Jason “Mayhem” Miller as the goofy guy who hosts Bully Beatdown, not as a bully himself. Even when Miller instigated a brawl at the end of Strikeforce’s last CBS show, it came across more like a prank gone bad than an attempt to pick a fight. And in the clip above, Miller decries Nick Diaz for making MMA fighters look like “thugs.”
But it wasn’t that long ago that Miller had a reputation as one of the thugs in MMA. He was placed on probation for beating someone up in a bar and later charged (and acquitted) with first-degree burglary. Miller doesn’t talk about that part of his past very often, but he opens up about it to Michael Schiavello in an interview that will air on HDNet Friday night.
