MMA is a violent sport that fans watch to see knockouts and submissions, not for comedy.
But every once in a while there is a slip of the tongue or some outrageous event that has fans clutching their sides with laughter.
Whether you’re a sucker for Chael Sonnen quotes, a TUF fan or a fan of post fight hijinx, I can guarantee you that you’ll find something on here that makes you chuckle.
Practically all the fighters in MMA have a nickname. Some don’t, but the ones who do, tend to have stories and reasons behind their given names. This is just a handful of fighters with suggested new nicknames that suit their personality and past. …
Practically all the fighters in MMA have a nickname. Some don’t, but the ones who do, tend to have stories and reasons behind their given names. This is just a handful of fighters with suggested new nicknames that suit their personality and past.
Leonard “The Karate Kid II” Garcia
Remember in Karate Kid II, they had that drum-like object they rubbed back and forth with their hands? Garcia seems to take after that style.
Forrest “The Caveman” Griffin
Go check out Forrest’s books, especially his latest. Like “Geico,” he will also save you money on years of counseling and therapy, since his books are filled with knowledge for life. Not to mention he keeps it hairy.
Antonio “Piggybank” Nogueira
Go watch a fight of Big Nog’s and wait for a camera shot of his back. Might lose a hand in there.
Clay “The Donor” Guida
Guida seems to guarantee two things in his fights: They will be exciting, and he will end up bleeding probably within the first few minutes. An alternate would be “Da Vinci,” since he has certainly painted those canvases much more than others. He would be the best choice aside Griffin for “The Caveman.”
Phil “26 Moving Parts and Real Submission Action!” Davis
If you haven’t seen Phil Davis during a weigh-in, then you will be a clueless parent come Christmas when your kid asks you for that cool UFC action figure. This should be his nickname, just so we can all hear Bruce Buffer give the best merchandise pitch ever.
Vitor “The Pheetnom-nom” Belfort
Does this one really need explaining?
Mark “That Was Easy!” Hominick
Remember those Staples commercials with that red button? Remember his fight with Aldo?
Diego “Awake” Sanchez
Sanchez can’t seem to figure out his own identity as has gone from the “Nightmare” to the “Dream.” One option left.
Lyoto “The Dentist” Machida
Randy Couture and Vitor Belfort should go to a different office than Black House Dentistry.
Chael “The Fly” Sonnen
What does a fly do? They fly around, continuously buzzing and being annoying (to some). They continue to move about and don’t stop too often. They are only in trouble when they get caught, and sometimes it’s in a spider’s web. Also, during the countdown for Sonnen vs. Stann, Stann was having trouble beating a fly away during his interview. He was defeated by Sonnen, who put on an impressive fight and got the finish.

Martial-artist-turned-actor Steven Seagal has made waves in 2011 by being in the corner of two of the top fighters in the UFC, Lyoto Machida and Anderson Silva. The 59-year-old has been training with the fighters for a few years now, but his presence has suddenly become mainstream following his post-fight interviews after UFC 126 and UFC 129.
At those two events, both Silva and Machida ended their fights in astonishing fashion with different versions of the same kick—a front kick to the face—which both Black House fighters learned during their time training with Master Seagal.
The star of Law Man may not look like the same bad ass who whooped ass in Hard to Kill, but results don’t lie and apparently the martial arts training he took decades ago still applies even in today’s age of mixed martial arts.
As we saw at UFC 129 when Machida utilzed a kick seen in The Karate Kid to finish off Randy Couture, Seagal has seen it all and will have his fighter ready to dethrone the current 205-pound champion Jon Jones.
Expect Seagal to take full advantage of his nearly half-century-long martial arts career where he has learned everything there is to know about every martial art in the world. Master Seagal will teach his pupil these six techniques which will leave even the great Jon Jones in shock as Lyoto leaves UFC 140 with the UFC light heavyweight championship.

The genesis of the UFFC (Ultimate Fictional Fighting Championship) can be found in the first kid who turned to his buddy and said “I’ll bet my dad would kick your dad’s ass.”
The desire to figure out who is the strongest is embedded in our primitive monkey DNA; we need to know who to follow.
And if you find yourself in a tree peeing on the heads of your fellow shaven monkeys, then you are him.
This speculation extends outside the prowess of our own pater familias into other realms of the fictional world.
What if Michael Jordan fought Kobe Bryant? What if Bruce Lee fought the Knicks? Who would win in a fight between Chuck Norris and a lion (easy one there—lions only exist because Chuck has allowed them to).
In the fictional fighting world we can wage these epic battles. The UFFC kicks off with two iconic warriors from the 1980s. Without further ado, I give you UFFC 1: Daniel LaRusso vs. A.C. Slater.

Award for “Best Closing of the Distance”
Winner: Stefan Struve vs. Demetrious Johnson
This fight was nearly three rounds of intense cat-and-mouse chasing, except the mouse was chasing the cat.
Demetrious continued battering at the shins of the “Skyscraper” in the second round. Near the end of the that round, Johnson went in for a single-leg takedown. Struve held his ground while Johnson went for an inverted kneebar, but the round ended seconds later.
In the third round, Struve used his reach advantage to place his hand on top of Johnson’s head and keep his distance, but Demetrious ran up Struve’s arm, took his back, slapped on a rear naked choke, and tapped out the Skyscraper.
“Mighty Mouse” wins Submission of the Night.
Award for “Most Referee Timeouts in One Fight”
Winner: Clay Guida vs. Urijah Faber
The first round starts and both fighters touch gloves. Clay immediately goes for a clinch and starts to dirty box.
Urijah Faber’s cornrows become undone, and his full mane is now down. Clay Guida goes in for another close exchange, but his hair gets tangled with Faber’s. Referee Herb Dean stops the fight and fixes the hair.
Thirty seconds later, it happens again, this time on the ground. Herb Dean stands them up, and fixes it again. This continues in the second round.
Then they both go for a violent takedown simultaneously and get tangled again. Herb Dean assesses the situation and calls in Stitch to cut the hair apart.
The third round starts and it happens again. Herb Dean rushes in again, but gets his own hair stuck. Doctors stop the fight, and judges call it a three-way draw. Herb Dean is awarded Fight of the Night.
Award for “Overcoming Adversity”
Winner: Frankie Edgar vs. Roy Nelson
Frankie starts off his fight with some quick jabs. Roy Nelson takes the punches, but eats them only to setup a takedown.
He quickly grabs a double-leg using his right arm only and slams Edgar to the ground. Edgar is rocked by the slam, and while dazed, Nelson scrambles and puts Edgar into a crucifix.
Edgar manages to squirm enough to dodge Nelson’s attacks from above. He then gets Roy into side control, but loses it again.
The second round starts and Roy Nelson takes Frankie down. This time he goes immediately to the north-south position. Edgar starts making a waving motion and loses his mouth guard, so referee Herb Dean calls a timeout. He stands both of them up, returns the mouth guard to Frankie, and then tells him to go back down to the position they were just in. Frankie clearly begs Herb Dean to just stand them up, but the ref refuses and places them back the way they were.
Frankie has now endured this torture for almost two rounds, but miraculously he lifts Roy Nelson off of himself. He then proceeds to suplex Nelson and knock him out for KO of the Night and Fight of the Night.
Edgar later says that his adrenaline boost came as a result of Nelson talking trash about the Jersey Shore while he had Edgar pinned.
Award for “Quickest Knockout”
Winner: Mirko Cro Cop vs. Wanderlei Silva
The bout starts and both opponents rush toward each other, meeting in the middle.
Mirko Cro Cop throws a jumping, 360 roundhouse and knocks out “The Axe Murderer” in six seconds.
After the fight doctors attempt to reattach Silva’s nose. Meanwhile Cro Cop is interviewed by Joe Rogan, where he reveals that he has been training with Steven Seagal.
Award for “Fewest Number of Takedowns in a Single Fight”
Winner: Fabricio Werdum vs. Thales Leites
The fight starts and both men touch gloves. They then square off and circle each other for about 20 seconds.
All of sudden, they both fake charge at each other, and in unison, they fall on their backs.
As if tanning under the lights of Mandalay Bay Arena, the fighters refuse to move. They bait each other by kicking at each other’s in-steps from time to time before Herb Dean stands them up.
The second and third rounds continue in the same manner as the first.
Judges call it a draw, and a rematch is setup immediately by Joe Silva. The fight will be the main event, and GSP vs. Silva is its co-main.
Award for “Most Disgusting Fight”
Winner: Mark Hominick vs. Dwayne Lewis
The fighters start the fight off by trading blows over and over. Lewis throws a head kick and lands flush to Hominick’s forehead. Hominick responds with a quick superman punch to the eye of Lewis.
Jabs and elbows are exchanged until hematomas have fully formed on both fighters.
In the second round, both fighters go for a quick takedown at the exact same time, causing their faces to smash together.
Joe Rogan’s commentary is briefly interrupted by a loud popping sound. Referee Herb Dean calls a stop to the fight, and corner and cut men rushed in to fix their fighters and the mess.
During the panic, six full bags of ice are spilled. Arianny Celeste slips on the ice that had been swept to the sides, which leads to her falling on her head rendering herself unconscious.
Both fighters are awarded KO of the Night, and Joe Rogan receives an Emmy for his commentary.
Award for “Most Artistic Fight”
Winner: Jason Miller vs. Hermes Franca
The fight starts, and it immediately goes to the ground.
The two fighters scramble for positions, reversing each other and exchanging ground and pound. The sweat and Vaseline converge into their hair, and the dye begins to bleed out by the start of the second round.
The canvas is becoming a rainbow of current and past colors, rendering the sponsors unreadable.
By the end, the mat looks like the insides of a kaleidoscope. Dan Hardy jumps the cage and makes some final touchups.
Award for “Most Memorable Entrance”
Winner: Georges St. Pierre vs. Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza
Entrance music starts and Souza comes into “Welcome to the Jungle.”
Lights dim again and “O Canada” starts to play. Suddenly, a spotlight hits St. Pierre, and he is coming to the cage riding a gigantic moose.
He parks the moose at the prep station, while they apply Maple Syrup Vaseline to Rush’s face. He then enters the cage.
The fight starts, and GSP starts to jab. Souza, being frustrated with the quickness of GSP, lunges all out for a superman punch. He lands flush, and GSP gets rocked. Seeing his companion in trouble, GSP’s moose decides to jump the cage.
In the wake of excitement, Brock Lesnar, who was lazily spectating, perks up. He reaches for his hunting rifle, grabs the ammo under his chair, and takes aim.
He lands a shot dead center of the moose’s head, killing it on the spot. Lesnar, too, jumps the cage and starts to tend to his recent kill.
Confused and thinking GSP would be disqualified, Souza believes he has won the fight and starts to do his signature crawl.
Lesnar turns around and sees this, panics, and shoots Souza, thinking he was a caiman.
GSP is awarded a win, due to Souza being unable to continue.
Fans and critics rejoice…GSP has finally broken his decision streak.
