Friday was not, by his own admission, a good day for Tim Kennedy. When he woke up in the morning, Kennedy was scheduled to face Lyoto Machida, himself freshly removed from the light heavyweight division. Machida is heading down to light heavyweight, and judging by recent photos that have surfaced on that magical thing we […]

Vitor Belfort has become the unwitting figurehead for the use of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) in MMA—a controversial practice which some argue is legalised cheating. Having faced incessant questions of his use of TRT since the revelations first surfaced last year, he’s defended the medical exemption given to fighters with low testosterone once again, arguing […]

The first half of 2013 has been an interesting one at that. One that has featured seven months of dynamite knockouts, historic upsets, budding maturation and mind-blowing back-and-forth action. Now while the barbaric onslaught hasn’t differed all that much from past years, a few headlines and key storylines do receive precedence over the rest. It’s […]

Chris Weidman defeated Anderson Silva to become the middleweight champion at UFC 162. The fight result was shocking, not only because we’d never previously seen Silva lose inside the Octagon, but because the very idea of him being knocked out seemed almost laughable.

At UFC 161, Rashad Evans got the decision win. And exhaled. Evans wasn’t the only one in the business of self-redemption last Saturday night. He was looking to redeem an entire camp, the one of which Evans is the most famous member—the Florida-based JACO Hybrid Training Center and the pro MMA cabal known as the […]

I don’t know about you, but I personally believe that Saturday’s UFC on FOX 7 event is the most stacked card of the year. On paper, anyway.
