A terror-filled weekend was highlighted by the release of Focus Features’ Insidious: Chapter 3 and one of the greatest heel turns in UFC history. I tossed and turned all night trying to rid my mind of a sweaty, unshaven Ben Rothwell standing in the Octagon next to UFC commentator Jon Anik, laughing maniacally after choking […]

As the lone heavyweight bout on the main card, Matt Mitrione and Ben Rothwell faced otherworldly expectations at UFC Fight Night 68 on Saturday night. Blame it on Andrei Arlovski and Travis Browne for raising the bar in the heavyweight division with an oddly satisfying display of carnage at UFC 187. Mitrione came into the […]

Ben Rothwell was a massive underdog going into his fight with Alistair Overeem at UFC Fight Night 50. Apparently, that’s just fine with Ben Rothwell.
