It was a long, crazy year of fights in mixed marital arts. Simply put, 2014 was busy and had no shortage of decisions left in the hands of the judges. Most of the time, the judges got it right. However, like we’ve seen in so many cases, the judges got it wrong and caused controversy […]

For what the sport had at its disposal, 2014 was a fairly competitive and entertaining epoch for mixed martial arts as a whole. Injuries certainly played a role in prohibiting a higher degree of excellence, but the handful of elite fighters leftover were able to efficiently suffice for the loss.

2014 was a down year in terms of business for mixed martial arts. But the action in the cage was better than ever, for the most part. There were classic fights from the championship level on down to the lowest of preliminary bouts. We even got the MMA version of a unicorn—and entire Ultimate Fighting […]
