As one of the premier sports outlets in the world, the UFC has become exponentially popular.
Throughout the years of adding new talent, exploiting world-class champions and promoting “the greatest rematch” in mixed martial arts history, the international dynamo has attracted attention from all corners of the map.
On the heels of an epic grudge match between UFC champion Ronda Rousey and nemesis Miesha Tate, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that the entertainment business is providing its two cents.
Queue, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, who has made it crystal clear via Twitter who he’s rooting for to win the co-main event on Dec. 28 in Las Vegas, originally broke by MMA Underground.

What are the chances of seeing Tito Ortiz step into a WWE ring against Brock Lesnar and The Rock?
Pretty good, at least according to Ortiz.
In a recent interview with MMA H.E.A.T.’s Karyn Bryant, the former UFC light heavyweight champion talked about life after the UFC and the possibility of venturing from the Octagon to the Squared Circle.
Ya, I think [the fight against Forrest Griffin] is going to be my last. Right now, these young guys coming up, you know, [Alexander] Gustafsson, Johnny Bones Jones, these kids are 23 years old. I can’t do that same type of work anymore. I’m 37, and I have grinded my body literally to a stone.
I don’t know, you look at it and you see Brock Lesnar in the WWE now all of a sudden. He’s gone back to his roots. I don’t know. Could Tito do that stuff? Wow, that’d be interesting huh?
The world of professional wrestling wouldn’t be foreign to Ortiz, who appeared in a few shows for TNA back in May 2005.
There’s a lot of fans. I mean [the WWE] is a great promotion. There’s a lot of great things that could happen with that. Let’s fight and see who the real “People’s Champ” is. The Rock? I don’t know. You never know.
Ortiz and Lesnar certainly wouldn’t be the only fighters to jump ship. Ken Shamrock, Dan Severn and Sean O’Haire have all competed in the WWE.
Ortiz has always been a major draw for the UFC and he should garner plenty of interest from the WWE and TNA.
Tito Ortiz or The Rock? Will the real “People’s Champ” please stand up?

This summer, the UFC heads back to Brazil in an attempt to set their all-time attendance record for Anderson Silva vs Chael Sonnen II. Scheduled to take place in June at the beautiful Estádio Olímpico João Havelange in Rio de Janeiro, the UFC hopes this Brazilian event will lead to future stadium shows.
As one of the most important events in the promotion’s history, they can draw several aspects from the WWE’s production of Wrestlemania to ensure that UFC 147 is one of the most memorable cards ever.

There is a case to be made for several men as the greatest professional wrestler of all-time. Your grandfather might tell you about Buddy Rogers or Lou Thesz. Your dad can spin tails about the amazing Ric Flair and “Handsome Harley Race.” A vampire or the Highlander might even make an argument for Jim Londos or Frank Gotch.
But to me, the Rock stands alone at the top of the list. With apologies to Lex Luger, the “Great One” was the real total package.
What makes him the greatest of all-time? Read on, reminisce and enjoy.
In case you were looking for a self-help book to pick up to aid you in keeping your New Year’s resolutions this year, Victory Belt Publishing has one you’re probably going to want to check out.
Apparently Chael Sonnen kept busy during his one-year suspension from fighting and he penned a new book, titled, “The Voice of Reason: A V.I.P. Pass to Enlightenment,” which he says touches on “physics, politics, linguistics, history, and physiology.” Knowing Chael, he probably just put his dust cover over “The Rock’s” biography and called it his own.
Check out the description of the 320-page tome by Chael P. himself, after the jump.

Pass to Enlightenment,” which he says touches on “physics, politics, linguistics, history, and physiology.” Knowing Chael, he probably just put his dust cover over “The Rock’s” biography and called it his own.
Here’s the description of the 320-page tome by Chael P. himself:
Presence. Tenacity. Insight. Omniscience. No need to look these words up. They are defined by yours truly. Who am I? I’m the one who needs no introduction, the walking thesaurus, the UFC’s most infamous and feared destroyer of men. I am Chael P. Sonnen, and you want to be just like me.
It’s your lucky day. What you are holding in your hands is nothing short of a V.I.P pass to enlightenment. In the coming pages my humor and tales of heroic adventure will baptize you in superhuman greatness. Allow me to carry you like a frail damsel as I make a nightmarish decent into the bowels of Sao Paulo. Sit before me as a student as I teach you about my plans of creating a Chaelocracy, which translates to “A Better Earth.” Shower me with praise as I take you into my manly mitts like a lump of seemingly worthless clay and craft you into something far better than yourself—me.
Like all great men of myth and legend, I strive for the betterment of the human race. Prometheus brought us fire; Dana White brought us the modern day gladiator; and I bring you a step-by-step guide to being just like me. Do you have what it takes? Is there truly a chance that one day you will be able to walk in my shoes? Purchase this book and find out. There is no better day to stop being you and start trying to be me.
You’re welcome civilization.
Not convinced? Here is some addition information you will glean from The Voice of Reason:
• Why Dance Dance Revolution is the national fighting style of Brazil.
• How vegans are ruining themselves and the world.
• Why you should never feed carrots to a school bus.
• Why you don’t need an athlete to be your hero.
• How fighters and fashion models have the exact same job.
• Why Republicans are more compassionate, pioneering, rebellious, and generally cooler than any liberal.
Inside this book I offer you my knowledge of physics, politics, linguistics, history, and physiology. Unless you are currently standing in the checkout line or speeding home, wanting to save my brilliance for when you are curled up in a recliner sipping on some tea, you have already failed at becoming something similar to me. Chael P. Sonnen knows what he wants and buys it. He doesn’t need a dust jacket to tell him a book is good. He can feel it.

(“Stick with me, kid, I’ll make you an action star on the Hallmark Channel.”)
Well it looks like one glowing reference Urijah Faber will have on his resume when he starts applying for acting gigs will be from Rosie O’Donnell, which could go a long way if they’re looking to cast a teenage Bam Bam for Flintstones III.
The former WEC champ appeared on Rosie’s show on the Oprah Winfrey Network recently and the actress gushed over him, telling Faber that he has a bright future in movies.
“I wouldn’t want you to [be fighting when you’re in your 40s] either, honey, because you’re too charismatic and you’re too kind of… I think you’re going to have a career like ‘The Rock.’ I think you transfer over to showbiz and you could have a full career in movies with karate where you’re the superhero-like kind of guy.”

Besides the odd commercial, Faber says he did some acting as a kid, but explained to Rosie that he isn’t interested in doing casting calls. Sorry to break it to you, Urijah, but unless The Hobbit is looking for extras or a young pre-mountie Dudley Doright is needed for a prequel, you might be waiting a while by the phone for casting directors to call. You aren’t as recognizable as Randy Couture or Gina Carano, and you don’t have the swagger that ‘Rampage’ has.
