Since 2006, Mirko has fallen from the great heights, however, he is […]

Late in 2009 Martin Kampmann was set to have a No. 1 contender fight against Mike Swick. Unfortunately for Kampmann, Mike Swick was injured and Paul Daley was announced as his replacement. If Kampmann had won, he likely still would have gotten his shot at Georges St. Pierre for the welterweight title, but Daley had […]
