UFC 136 was one of the best fight cards in UFC history, and it seems unreal that the UFC could even come close to topping it anytime soon.
But, since Dana White and company never seem to disappoint, there are seven more fight cards left this year and a few of them have potential to join UFC 136 as instant classics.
Guys like Brock Lesnar, Jon Jones and George St-Pierre are all returning to action in the next three months, making the potential for amazing fight cards a very real thing.
The fans have spoken, and Anderson Silva has been voted to become the next cover star in the UFC Undisputed franchise. Past cover stars were Forrest Griffin and Brock Lesnar. Silva was announced as the cover athlete at a special presentation at the UFC…
The fans have spoken, and Anderson Silva has been voted to become the next cover star in the UFC Undisputed franchise.
Silva was announced as the cover athlete at a special presentation at the UFC Fan Expo in Houston earlier today.
Silva earned enough votes to outgain fellow champions Cain Velasquez, Jon Jones, Georges St-Pierre and Frankie Edgar, and will be the featured fighter in the third game of the Undisputed franchise.
Widely regarded as the best fighter in the world, Silva is the most successful fighter in UFC history, holding nearly every record in terms of wins and title defenses.
He also has a 14-0 record since entering the promotion in 2006.
UFC President Dana White made the announcement that Silva had been selected as the cover athlete and Silva subsequently came out and addressed the fans.
“I’m very happy, thank you to my fans and my family,” Silva said after he was revealed as the winner.
The fans were then treated to watch the final match of the UFC Houston video game tournament.
After a fan controlling Silva won the bout by beating another fan controlling Jones, the real Silva reappeared and started celebrating with the winner.
UFC Undisputed 3 is set to be released in early 2012, with new features such as PRIDE Mode, a new submission system, updated rosters and fighter walkouts.
The current group of UFC champions have all shown that they can dominate the best in their respective divisions, but it is always just a matter of time before they are defeated. Guys like Anderson Silva and Georges St-Pierre only come along every once …
The current group of UFC champions have all shown that they can dominate the best in their respective divisions, but it is always just a matter of time before they are defeated.
Guys like Anderson Silva and Georges St-Pierre only come along every once in a while, but almost every one of the current title holders has the ability to hold the belt for a very long time.
It comes down to matchups and timing, and while Jose Aldo may seem unbeatable, all it takes is the right guy to end his reign atop his weight class.
This season of The Ultimate Fighter has been extremely entertaining, with the featherweight and bantamweight weight classes putting on great fights. The banter between coaches Michael Bisping and Jason “Mayhem” Miller has been great as well, and it loo…
This season of The Ultimate Fighter has been extremely entertaining, with the featherweight and bantamweight weight classes putting on great fights.
The banter between coaches Michael Bisping and Jason “Mayhem” Miller has been great as well, and it looks like the two will start to loathe each other more and more as the season goes on.
But as good as this season has been, there is still a little bit of wondering going through the minds of fans of “What could have been?”
That’s because the best trash talker in the UFC, Chael Sonnen, was originally set to coach opposite Bisping, but due to issues with the California State Athletic Commission, he was unable to commit to the show.
Sonnen is one of the fighters fans have been longing to see as a coach on the show, along with several others.
Here are five fighters who would be perfect coaches on The Ultimate Fighter.
In MMA, there is nothing more exciting than the flash knockout. Fans may love fighters for their impressive grappling skills or technical prowess on the feet, but no one can deny they look most forward to watching guys who can end a fight in an instant…

Fans may love fighters for their impressive grappling skills or technical prowess on the feet, but no one can deny they look most forward to watching guys who can end a fight in an instant.
With Melvin Guillard running through the lightweight division and taking out fighter after fighter by knockout, it only seems fair to highlight him and the other heavy hitters in the UFC before his fight at UFC 136 this weekend.
It wasn’t his best performance, and something looked a little bit off, but Dominick Cruz still had no problem dominating Demetrious “Mighty Mouse” Johnson in the UFC on Versus 6 main event. Cruz has now defended his title four times since he won …
It wasn’t his best performance, and something looked a little bit off, but Dominick Cruz still had no problem dominating Demetrious “Mighty Mouse” Johnson in the UFC on Versus 6 main event.
Cruz has now defended his title four times since he won it from Brian Bowles back at WEC 47 and has taken out the very best the division has to offer.
While that is adding to his legend, it is making future opponents hard to come by, which is why his next fight will likely be a rematch.
