Thomas Gerbasi, UFC – Just a couple quick ones about Jens Pulver…
Nothing about his 22 pro wins, his reign as the first UFC lightweight champion, or his legacy as the man who put the lighter weight classes on the map here in the States; we’ll save that for later.

Ben Saunders and dreams of Madison Square Garden

Chuck Mindenhall, UFC – When you’re 6-foot-3 and cold as hell in the welterweight division, you can have a little bit of empathy for your opposition heading into a fight. Ben Saunders does.

Ditto Brandon Wolff, whom Saunders beat similarly at UFC: Fight For the Troops in North Carolina.
