(No, really Clay. Make yourself comfortable. Props: @JoeLauzon)
The UFC’s annual Fighter Summit — in which every fighter under the Zuffa roster is forcibly brought together for a series of lectures meant to educate and inspire — went down earlier this week in Las Vegas, and judging from this epic Sherdog thread, it was a nightmarish endurance test of boring presentations and insane guest speakers.
Browsing through the photos, you can just feel how uncomfortably warm the room was, how early the start-times were, how soul-crushingly dull some of those presentations turned out to be. (Anybody who’s suffered through an 8 a.m. Intro to Philosophy course in college can certainly relate.) The fighters coped as best as they could — mostly by napping and doodling. We’ve hand-picked some of our favorite photos that were tweeted out during the ordeal, and put them in the gallery below. Enjoy.

Chael Sonnen has a rather unique relationship with the people of Brazil. He brutally mocks them for being uncivilized savages, and they get so angry that they just want to make his sweet little ass pay, you know? This bizarre dynamic reared its ugly head again at UFC 147 on Saturday night, as a local fan unrolled a photoshopped poster that seemed to imply that…well, I don’t think this really needs any further description. Thank God for that UFC belt, or Shane Diesel would be suing for trademark infringement right now.
As Joe Rogan explained on the UG, “Someone from the crew looked up at that one, and said ‘Did you see that poster? Anderson is holding Sonnen like a baby!’ I looked up at it, and I was like, ‘What the fuck do you do with babies that makes you think that’s a baby?’”
Good question. So can any of you make an even more insulting photoshopped poster for UFC 148: Silva vs. Sonnen 2? If so, send it to [email protected] and God help us, we might post the best ones next week.

Former UFC light-heavyweight champion Chuck Liddell could have been inducted into the UFC hall of fame simply for his post-fight (and pre-fight and everything in between) partying prowess. So we’re not that surprised that Liddell recently partied at an Los Angeles night club with members of the NHL champion LA Kings, Sir Stanley’s cup itself, and several little people dressed up as Oompa Loompas.
All in the night of a UFC ambassador, we suppose. In addition to a couple photos of that night courtesy of Pulitzer-winning TMZ, we’re including a collection of some of our favorite Chuck Liddell partying photos from over the years. As you’ll see, Chuck has gotten down with classy pairs of ladies, celebrities, more classy ladies, former opponents, douchebags, and piles of yet more comely finishing-school drop outs.
Here’s to you, Chuck — the world’s hardest hitting and hardest partying accountant. Cheers. Video and enviable photos await you after the jump…

Liddell doing a keg Stanley Cup stand
This is how Liddell parties before a fight (specifically UFC 71). Boss.
Liddell takes time out to pose with some douche
Liddell doesn’t even let total loathing and lack of respect for someone get in the way of partying with them
Sleep is the cousin of death so Chuck always keeps his eyes open while with the ladies
For chaos-loving MMA fans, getting one over on Wikipedia is a mark of honor. This UG thread reminded us of the hilarious tradition of Wikipedia-page vandalism, so we decided to scour the Internet for some of our favorite MMA-related examples; thanks to all the anonymous men and women who quickly screen-capped these gems before they were fixed. Check out our full gallery of MMA wiki edits after the jump, and if we’ve left out any good ones, shoot us some links in the comments section.

Nothing like a good caption contest to remind us what a funny bunch of sons-of-bitches y’all are. After sifting through nearly 200 submissions, we’ve selected the two winners who will be receiving copies of Chael Sonnen‘s new life-manual, The Voice of Reason: A V.I.P. Pass to Enlightenment a month before it goes on sale to the general public. But first, some runners-up…
LOKI: Chael struggled to hold back the guilt in his face; he never realized that wishing cancer on Ed Soares would actually work.
tdpwent: Chael and random guy #2 show what a certain brazilian BJJ expert will be doing every night after his failed pick-up attempt.
mcw89138: Chael and Ronda drove 2,000 miles to an undisclosed Starbucks to see for themselves the Internet freak and phenomenon known as “perfect circle head” guy.
BigBalluh: The new season of Two and a Half Men is gonna suck.
Kid Clam Curtains: Not pictured: The knee-high rubber boots they’re wearing for all the bullshit.

kochersam: Ronda and Chael both pose with the man-creature they created using the excess testosterone found in their bodies.
Slack Brian: In what parallel universe can you punch a man 300 times, he holds up a fist like a douche for eight seconds and Rousey lets him graze her boob?!
HabitualLineStepper: Chael becomes the latest MMA fighter to sign on to do a low-budget film with C-list actors. Here he poses with his co-stars Julia Stiles and a grown-up Bud from Married with Children.
Goat: This is me. I’m not joking. It’s me. I made that thread. I remember that day clearly. I was sitting in Starbucks, chilling the fuck out, listening to some Megaman 2 music, when I looked up, and there he was – Chael fuckin’ Sonnen. Eventually, I summed up the courage to ask him, and I said “You’re Chael Sonnen, the middle-weight champion of the world?” And he nodded. And it was bliss. I was so drunken with Chael’s uber-aura that I didn’t notice the beautiful and dangerous Ronda Rousey right next to him. We got some photos, had some laughs, and I went back to listening to my rad-ass 8-Bit music. Anyways – it was a great moment! I’m glad people are having fun with it.
PS: CP nation, my name’s not Brad.
PPS: No threesome occurred.
PPPS: Please give me a copy of Chael’s awesome DVD [Ed. note: It’s a book, Brad.] Here is some more evidence that I am the man in the photo.
And now, the winners…
PorkandBeans: What Stephen Hawking looked like prior to telling Chael and Ronda they weren’t actually the center of the universe.
c2844: Wow. Chael Sonnen and Ronda Rousey in the same photo…and nobody is in an armbar? Amazing!
So, Pork and C-numbers, please send your real names and addresses to [email protected], and we’ll get those books sent out to you next week. Thanks to everybody who played, and to Victory Belt for hooking us up. Now go buy Chael’s book!
