UFC welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre has been spending time working out with Manny Pacquiao‘s trainer, Freddie Roach, and in Roach’s comments about St. Pierre, he showed once again that he’s one of the few old-school boxing guys who actually respects mixed martial arts, praising St. Pierre as an athlete and even hinting that he might make an appearance on The Ultimate Fighter.

Weeks after Chuck Liddell broke Rich Franklin‘s left arm in their fight at UFC 115, Franklin has come up with a novel idea for what to do with the cast he’s been wearing since: He’s going to raffle it off, with the proceeds benefiting the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.
By purchasing a $5 raffle ticket at Franklin’s web site, fans can be entered into a drawing to win the cast, which has been signed by Liddell and will be signed by Franklin after it’s removed. There’s no date set for the drawing because Franklin isn’t yet sure when his doctor will tell him it’s time to remove the cast, but it’s expected to come off later this month.

There may have been more surprising knockouts, more spectacular knockouts or more exciting knockouts, but there has been no more impressive knockout so far in 2010 than Shogun Rua connecting with Lyoto Machida in the first round of their light heavyweight title fight at UFC 113.
Just think about how difficult it is to land a clean, hard shot to Machida’s head. Right up until that very moment when Rua’s right hand hit Machida’s temple, Machida had been the UFC’s hardest fighter to hit. Whether you loved or hated his elusive style of fighting, you knew Machida was devastatingly effective at avoiding damage.
And then Shogun came along. After losing a very close decision to Machida last year, Shogun wanted to take it out of the judges’ hands this time around, and that’s what he did, winning the light heavyweight belt by tagging Machida with by far the hardest punch anyone has ever hit him with and then pouncing and finishing him with a few more punches on the ground. It was the best knockout in mixed martial arts so far in 2010.

It would be great to see an increased presence for American athletes in K-1. But the way to do that is not to put American kickboxers into fights in which they’re severely overmatched, which is what happened this weekend when Wisconsin’s Alex Roberts got into the ring with Brazil’s Ewerton Teixeira at the K-1 World Grand Prix 2010 in Canberra.

A week after leaving his job working in the production of UFC broadcasts, jiu jitsu instructor Eddie Bravo says he expects to get back to work for the UFC.
Bravo did not work in the UFC production truck at UFC 116, instead choosing to corner George Sotiropoulos. But Bravo says there were never any hard feelings between himself and UFC President Dana White, and he says that the UFC will bring him back for fight cards when he’s not cornering fighters, because the quality of the production suffered in his absence.

Two of the fighters who lost lopsided decisions on April’s Strikeforce card on CBS bounced back with impressive victories Saturday at Dream 15 in Saitama, Japan.
In the main event, Dream lightweight champion Shinya Aoki submitted Tatsuya Kawajiri to retain his title, looking as good as he ever has three months after looking as bad as he ever had in a loss to Gilbert Melendez.
Aoki, wearing board shorts rather than his trademark spandex grappling pants, immediately took the fight to the ground and went for one of his signature foot lock submissions, twisting and turning Kawajiri’s leg for a full minute on the ground before Kawajiri finally had to tap out. There was nothing more to it than that, as Aoki — Japan’s biggest MMA star — did exactly what he wanted to do.
