More Weird MMA-Related Craigslist Ads

It’s been tough to top our wildly popular and extensive original compilation of the 25 weirdest MMA-related ads on Craigslist, so instead we’re going to regularly take one for the team and extensively comb through the cesspool of personals on the ad site and put together smaller galleries. Friendly advice. Don’t click on ads with photos.

Check out some of the weirdest ones we found today, after the jump.

If you’re looking to train on a course made from just shit around, you’re in luck. This guy has what you need. He has a decent amount of training in kicking and blocking, you know, the martial art.

———-

Typically when a guy says he’s a fighter, he isn’t. So when a dude like this says he’s a UFC fighter, it probably means he has vinyl UFC gloves he bought at Target and a TapouT t-shirt he wears out to the bars.

———-

I’m not even going to say anything about this guy since it’s obvious he knows what he’s doing. I mean, Doc Marten boots AND spandex = badass fighter. The only question I have is, what does he mean by “maybe more?”

———-

Worried about protecting his image? Sounds like a Jackson’s fighter.

———-

A football player AND a UFC fighter you say? Is this Matt Mitrione? Besides the fake claim that he’s a UFC fighter, the ad wouldn’t be that odd if it wasn’t posted in the “men looking for trannies” section

———-

“You can come over and watch the fights, but I want it in wrtiting that I can do whatever I want to you beforehand.” Nothing creepy about that, is there?

Jones and Evans Go Back and Forth at UFC 145 Presser [VIDEO]

It only took UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones around 10 minutes yesterday to fire his first shot at number one contender and former teammate Rashad Evans at the pre-UFC 145 press conference in Atlanta.

Responding to a question about how he seemed confident that he would beat Evans after watching “Suga’s” performance against Phil Davis in the main event of last month’s UFC on Fox: Evans vs. Davis event, “Bones” said that he doesn’t feel that Rashad has really improved since he left Team Jackson to join The Blackzilians.

“I expected a lot in the fight. There was this whole Rashad 2.0 thing that was getting started and his first fight in a new camp. His body looked better and you saw some differences in his game. In [the Davis fight] I just didn’t see any progressions, whatsoever,” Jones explained, much to the delight of reporters looking for a juicy soundbite. “I’m honest. I’m really honest. It inspired me. It made me happy about what I saw. I said, ‘Wow, if that athlete shows up on April 21 it’s going to be an interesting night.’ It’s like your competitor reporter and he’s not doing his job well, it’s just like, ‘Oh, this is gonna be great.’ I’m excited.”

Evans took umbrage with Jones’ statement and claimed that the young champ might be hiding his true feelings about fighting his old training partner.

“I don’t know. I seen something different. I read body language a little bit. I studied psychology, and if you see Jon, the way he’ll swivel in that chair, he couldn’t keep still. He kept… It was like he was Stevie Wonder for a minute. He couldn’t keep still. He can say what he want to, but he already know what time it was. He knows it’s not going to be an easy fight,” Evans said. “He knows it’s going to be the hardest fight of his career. He knows that coming into this fight because he competed against me before. He already felt what I have, so he can say what he wants to about how I compete against somebody else, but he already know what time it is when we go together.”

With no love lost between these two, it should make for an interesting fight on April 21.

What Ails Gina Carano?

Gina Carano‘s team sent a text message to Strikeforce CEO, Scott Coker that said: “Gina is feeling much better after having undergone some medical attention and is looking forward to getting back into training very.

Gina Carano‘s team sent a text message to Strikeforce CEO, Scott Coker that said:

“Gina is feeling much better after having undergone some medical attention and is looking forward to getting back into training very soon. She would like to express thanks to Team Jackson for a wonderful training camp, Strikefore, and the fans.”

It’s likely we can shoot down those pregnancy rumors… And anyway, apparently some preggo fighters cans still fight, we assume since some quack cleared this woman. So what else could it be as to why she wasn’t medically cleared to fight this past Saturday? Usually when fighters aren’t cleared, we are told they have bulging neck discs or (non-STD related) herpes. But we have yet to receive any explanation from Carano’s camp and it may be we never will… and that just blows.

Melvin Guillard: ‘I’m Like a Wireless Robot and My Cornermen Hold the Joystick’

One of the most impressive performances from Saturday nights’ Fight for the Troops II card was logged by Melvin Guillard, who took out fast-rising lightweight Evan Dunham in emphatic fashion with a first round TKO, garnering him "Knockout of the Night" honors in the process.

We had Melvin on last week’s episode of The Bum Rush Radio Show and he had some interesting things to say about the affect of his move to Team Jackson, his plans for 2011, his desire to be on TUF again and how overrated he thinks Kenny Florian is.
