It’s been nearly a year since Georges St-Pierre hung up his gloves and vacated his welterweight title, but the world is still waiting to hear word of a return. Less than a month after his controversial split-decision victory over Johny Hendricks at UFC 167 in November 2013, the man widely regarded as the greatest fighter […]

I’d like to think a guy like Krzysztof Soszynski would be set for life. A veteran of nearly 40 fights, Soszynski spent more than eight years in the trenches of professional MMA. He fought for several of the industry’s top promotions, including Strikeforce and the IFL, before mustering a three-year, nine-fight tenure in the Octagon. […]

If flying by the seat of one’s pants was a professional sport, Nick Diaz would be on a golden beach somewhere right now, amending and reamending his lunch order. After the former UFC welterweight contender surprised plenty of onlookers by staging a reasonably successful MMA event on fairly short notice, Diaz threw cold water on […]
