LAS VEGAS — I arrived fashionably late for UFC 183, just in time for the first preliminary-card bout. But I was also just in time for Bruce Buffer’s special announcement over the MGM Grand Garden Arena’s loudspeakers: The bout between Jimy Hettes and Diego Brandao had been canceled at the last minute due to medical […]

The narrative on Donald Cerrone is that there is no narrative. Honestly, it’s getting to the point where there just isn’t a lot left to say about the guy. Cerrone did his “Cowboy” thing again on Sunday at UFC Fight Night 59, showing up on impossibly short notice to eke out a close but unanimous-decision […]

From Wednesday to Friday, Diaz had largely set the pace for UFC on Fox 13, grabbing the lion’s share of the headlines when he slept through his open workout, cut a professional wrestling style promo on new UFC signee […]

After 20 days of wild speculation and calculated innuendo, I honestly can’t decide if it’s more difficult to imagine a world where Ronda Rousey next defends her UFC women’s bantamweight title against Gina Carano or one where she doesn’t.

Cody McKenzie is one weird dude. That’s been known since his days on The Ultimate Fighter, but the owner of the McKenzie-tine may have just upped the ante of being weird at the UFC on Fox 9 event. It started with his fight with Sam Stout, in which McKenzie came into the contest wearing a pair […]

Dana White may be Ronda Rousey’s boss in the public eye, but Invicta fighter Jessica Philippus isn’t so sure the same holds true behind closed doors. During an appearance on MMA DieHards Radio, Philippus talked about fighters who could potentially dethrone UFC women’s bantamweight champ Ronda Rousey. The usual suspects, Sara McMann and Miesha Tate, […]
