Three fights and three victories in the UFC, and it still seems like Evan Dunham is flying under the radar, but that won’t be the case anymore if he defeats Tyson Griffin this weekend at UFC 115.
If Dunham is still flying under the radar, it’s not because of his performances inside the UFC.
He started his […]
Former UFC light-heavyweight champion Chuck Liddell will step into the octagon with over a year between fights. He’s lost his last two, his most recent was against current UFC light-heavyweight champ Mauricio Rua at UFC 97, and is 1-4 in his past five fights.

Former UFC light-heavyweight champion Chuck Liddell will step into the octagon with over a year between fights. He’s lost his last two, his most recent was against current UFC light-heavyweight champ Mauricio Rua at UFC 97, and is 1-4 in his past five fights.
UFC president Dana White spoke to Fighters Only Magazine that if his friend losses on Saturday, Liddell’s career will be over with the UFC.
Chuck Liddell is back in action this weekend after a 14-monty layoff. The former UFC light-heavyweight champion was urged to retire by UFC president Dana White after his last loss, but White in the end relented and offered him one more shot – as long as he would agree to cut out his partying and nightclubbing and get serious about training……
“Yes, and I think he will say the same thing. But let me tell you what the difference is – the difference before, when I wanted him retired, was that he wasn’t doing the right thing. He was out partying every night and doing the wrong thing not the right thing. He wasn’t living the life of a professional athlete,” White told us.
“He and I sat down and talked and I will tell you what, he has kept his word. He has been phenomenal shape since the beginning of The Ultimate Fighter and it will be interesting to see how he does.”
Popular UFC fighter Rich “Ace” Franklin will face Chuck Liddell this Saturday in the main event of UFC 115 in Vancouver, Canada. Franklin is not satisfied just fighting in the UFC, he’s still in the hunt for another title shot. He also talks about getting the call to coach the remaining season of […]

With the tremendous growth of MMA over the last few years and the seemingly, ever increasing popularity of the UFC, the promotion’s chief Dana White has consistently stated that the company’s vision is to take the Octagon worldwide.

With the tremendous growth of MMA over the last few years and the seemingly, ever increasing popularity of the UFC, the promotion’s chief Dana White has consistently stated that the company’s vision is to take the Octagon worldwide. Obviously the UFC has had huge success in nations like Canada, the U.K., Australia, and places like Abu Dhabi, among others, but still, how far can the promotion go? Is White serious when he states the UFC is heading into places like China or India? Or are those comments more, you know, of the spouting off variety, like when half-tanked buddy at your favorite ‘watering hole’ tells you he’s an expert in JKP and would fight in the UFC, if not for his torn DCL.
Well in a recent interview with Fighters Only Magazine, White continued to insist that the UFC is indeed working hard at bringing the promotion to those tiny, billion plus person markets of China and India.
“No we’re working hardcore to go to those places right now. Those are right here, right now places. Just like when I said we were going to the Middle East”….”We already have several meetings and done deals in China and now we are working on India. Probably what’s going to happen first is we’re going to get on television there and also the internet, the internet is very popular in China. Then we are talking about doing The Ultimate Fighter China, which would feature Chinese fighters.”

The fact that Chuck Liddell had zero sympathy for Tito Ortiz when news surfaced that the former champ was undergoing neck / back surgery again, was less surprising than hearing Dana White using the f-bomb in an interview. In fact, not only was Liddell really pissed about their third fight being cancelled, “The Iceman” has […]
The fact that Chuck Liddell had zero sympathy for Tito Ortiz when news surfaced that the former champ was undergoing neck / back surgery again, was less surprising than hearing Dana White using the f-bomb in an interview. In fact, not only was Liddell really pissed about their third fight being cancelled, “The Iceman” has made it clear that in his not-so-unbiased-opinion, Ortiz never intended to fight.
Well, now Ortiz is in full rebuttal mode, defending his decision to undergo his second major back surgery in 18 months. In fact, in the most recent episode of Spike’s Inside the Ultimate Fighter podcast, “The Huntington Beach Bad Boy” had this to say about Liddell insisting Ortiz is just ducking him (thanks to MMA Fighting for the quote).
“I think we should still fight, just because of the s— he’s been saying. Saying that I’m afraid of him and I’m a p—-, this and that. Go f— yourself man. Are you kidding me? Has he ever defended his world title longer than me? No. Has any light-heavyweight ever defended the world title longer than me? No. I’m only 35 years old. I’ll be back in the cage again, and I’ll be dominating.”
Ortiz reportedly went on to say that he’s even cheering for Liddell against Rich Franklin this weekend, just so the door remains open to a third fight. Wow. Hoping your foe doesn’t get hurt in a fight just so you can personally hurt him later…now that’s some hatred. To bet on UFC 115 head here.
