Anyway, if you can sit through this drivel to the end, “The Demolition Man” is in the video below for all of about 10 seconds.
I guess any publicity is better than no publicity, right? Still, I can’t help but wonder if they’re MMA fans or just fans of big muscular dudes. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. We’re just seeing a pattern.
Props to reader MassNerder (who makes no secret of his LMFAO love) for the find. Here’s the interesting note he sent us last night.
Not sure if you saw it or not but The Reem is in the new LMFAO video. Love me some LMFAO…no hard feelings bitch!
Love, MassNerder
What…Me Worry?
We have a sneaking suspicion that MassNerder is really Nick Diaz. Call it a hunch.

We were reluctant to show this video of two drunken idiot brothers reenacting a Chuck Liddell highlight reel, given the heat the WWE has gotten over the years from injuries sustained by children jumping off of ladders and hitting each other with chairs, and figured why show the dark side of MMA fans?
Then we thought, these assholes aren’t kids — they’re mentally challenged grown-ass men and what better PSA is there then to show the general public how fans shouldn’t participate in the sport. Commissions conduct pre-fight medicals for a reason and aspiring fighters wear headgear, handwraps and 12 to 14-ounce gloves when they spar, not jeans and four-ounce fight gloves to compete in a headlight-lit backyard. And besides maybe Junie Browning, War Machine, Drew Fickett, and Brett Rogers, legit fighters never spar or fight when they’ve been drinking.
Check out the video after the jump. Unfortunately only one of these idiots was knocked out.

Now that we have the PSA portion of the post out of the way, check out the video of two brothers with zero training pounding the shit out of each other with haymakers and overhand rights. I guess a double-knockout was too much to ask for.
On this day, March 19, one year ago, a lanky 23-year-old from Rochester, NY stepped into the Octagon to face the biggest challenge of his young MMA career. He would meet the challenge head-on and walk out of the cage 20 minutes later a champion.
The fighter was Jon Jones and the challenge was PRIDE legend and then-UFC light heavyweight champ Mauricio “Shogun” Rua, whom he faced that night for the title. Jones demonstrated the poise and skill set of a veteran, finishing Rua in the third round after controlling the first two frames, and in doing so, he quieted the doubters, if only for a moment.

His next two finishes over former champions Quinton “Rampage” Jackson and Lyoto Machida would further legitimize “Bones” and cement the footings of the legacy of the UFC’s youngest champion ever. His impressive mark may be duplicated or surpassed some day by a lifelong MMA-trained 22-year-old, but until then Jones will continue his reign and look to continue to bulldozer through all comers at 205, starting with onetime teammate and current number one contender/nemesis Rashad Evans next month at UFC 145.

Will he retain his belt and continue his freight train reign of dominance? Who knows, but at least we do know we’re all in for a hell of a ride come April 21.
In case you were looking for a self-help book to pick up to aid you in keeping your New Year’s resolutions this year, Victory Belt Publishing has one you’re probably going to want to check out.
Apparently Chael Sonnen kept busy during his one-year suspension from fighting and he penned a new book, titled, “The Voice of Reason: A V.I.P. Pass to Enlightenment,” which he says touches on “physics, politics, linguistics, history, and physiology.” Knowing Chael, he probably just put his dust cover over “The Rock’s” biography and called it his own.
Check out the description of the 320-page tome by Chael P. himself, after the jump.

Pass to Enlightenment,” which he says touches on “physics, politics, linguistics, history, and physiology.” Knowing Chael, he probably just put his dust cover over “The Rock’s” biography and called it his own.
Here’s the description of the 320-page tome by Chael P. himself:
Presence. Tenacity. Insight. Omniscience. No need to look these words up. They are defined by yours truly. Who am I? I’m the one who needs no introduction, the walking thesaurus, the UFC’s most infamous and feared destroyer of men. I am Chael P. Sonnen, and you want to be just like me.
It’s your lucky day. What you are holding in your hands is nothing short of a V.I.P pass to enlightenment. In the coming pages my humor and tales of heroic adventure will baptize you in superhuman greatness. Allow me to carry you like a frail damsel as I make a nightmarish decent into the bowels of Sao Paulo. Sit before me as a student as I teach you about my plans of creating a Chaelocracy, which translates to “A Better Earth.” Shower me with praise as I take you into my manly mitts like a lump of seemingly worthless clay and craft you into something far better than yourself—me.
Like all great men of myth and legend, I strive for the betterment of the human race. Prometheus brought us fire; Dana White brought us the modern day gladiator; and I bring you a step-by-step guide to being just like me. Do you have what it takes? Is there truly a chance that one day you will be able to walk in my shoes? Purchase this book and find out. There is no better day to stop being you and start trying to be me.
You’re welcome civilization.
Not convinced? Here is some addition information you will glean from The Voice of Reason:
• Why Dance Dance Revolution is the national fighting style of Brazil.
• How vegans are ruining themselves and the world.
• Why you should never feed carrots to a school bus.
• Why you don’t need an athlete to be your hero.
• How fighters and fashion models have the exact same job.
• Why Republicans are more compassionate, pioneering, rebellious, and generally cooler than any liberal.
Inside this book I offer you my knowledge of physics, politics, linguistics, history, and physiology. Unless you are currently standing in the checkout line or speeding home, wanting to save my brilliance for when you are curled up in a recliner sipping on some tea, you have already failed at becoming something similar to me. Chael P. Sonnen knows what he wants and buys it. He doesn’t need a dust jacket to tell him a book is good. He can feel it.

According to a Canadian Press article, the Canadian Opera Company has recruited behemoth American sumo wrestler and UFC 3 veteran Emmanuel Yarborough for it’s upcoming production of “Semele,” — a Greek tragedy.
Yarborough will apparently take part in a three-minute staged sumo bout meant to signify “a love affair between the god Jupiter and the princess Semele that goes horribly awry when Semele sets her mind to become immortal,” says COC spokeswoman Maria Lioutaia.

According to a Canadian Press article, the Canadian Opera Company has recruited behemoth American sumo wrestler and UFC 3 veteran Emmanuel Yarborough for it’s upcoming production of “Semele,” — a Greek tragedy.
Yarborough will apparently take part in a three-minute staged sumo bout meant to signify “a love affair between the god Jupiter and the princess Semele that goes horribly awry when Semele sets her mind to become immortal,” says COC spokeswoman Maria Lioutaia.
The 6’8″ 640-pound Guinness World Record holder who holds the distinction of being the largest professional athlete in the world answered a casting call sent out to sumo studios across North America. His “opponent” in the opera’s scene will be a Canadian named Elmer Gale, who said he has competed against Yarborough before in both disciplines.
“I hit him with everything I got and I bounced right out of the [sumo] ring,” said Gale, 47, who weighs around 320 pounds. ”I got to fight him a few years earlier in a judo tournament in Colorado and at that time I happened to best him, I threw him — it was cool.”
The real question is, who won the chicken wing eating competition after their competitions?
