So instead of taking the fight to regain his light-heavy weight title, Quinton Rampage Jackson has signed on to be a coach on The Ultimate Fighter season 10 and the person he will coach against is Rasard Sugar Evans. They are only going to be coaching Heavy weights, so it should be a great show. Rampage who is known for his great knockouts and his amazing slams, should bring a lot to the table he, if you remember correctly he was responsible for training Forrest Griffin and Evans earlier in his career. So who will win here the teacher or the student.

The Pound for Pound King is Coming Back


The pound for pound king of boxing Roy Jones Jr. has agreed to fighter arguably the best MMA fighter ever, Anderson “The Spider” Silva in a two part fight to see what fighter is truly better. The first fight will be a boxing match and the second will be an MMA fight under the UFC rules. I still do not truly believe this will need the arguments about who’s the better fighters. Because if you really thing about it, MMA fighters are trained in everything including boxing, and I would love to see how a boxer does when he is on his back, cause once you go down you can still be hit, unlike it boxing.

The UK VS. US getting HEATED


So the Ultimate fighter season 8 is currently on the air now and it features two teams consisting of five fighters from the United States and Five Fighters from the United Kingdom. And as you can guess the trash talk and what not has reached an all time high and is getting pretty nasty. Because there not just fighting for them self’s but for the respect of the country, similar to how the Olympics is. Well the two coaches are middle-weight Dan Henderson of the U.S. and middle-weight Michael Bisping of the U.K.. So keeping this in mind the two coaches now hate each other because of all of this and there is set to be a three on three match up in the near future and head lining it will be the two coaches.

Shogun Getting Title Shot


Mauricio "Shogun" Rua is set to be the first challenger against to new Light Heavyweight Champion Lyoto Machida. And I’m seeing a lot of complaints about this and honestly the people that are saying he’s not worthy of this fight, don’t know anything about the sport. People don’t think Shogun so get this fight because he hasn’t fought any one good and beat them, and because he was beaten by former TOF1 just a few months before he fought Chuck Liddell, but he has fought and won against Mark Colman and the number on contender Quinton “Rampage” Jackson. Most people don’t know that Rampage was knocked out by Shogun. So I hope this little extra bit of Mixed Martial Arts information changes your mind about Shogun.

Cypress Bay Representing


When you think of the name Chris Decaro and Cypress Bay, you look at all the records he holds. He holds basically every rushing record at the school. And after he graduated he didn't get any scholarship offers to play any where, so he went into MMA fighter and he is currently signed with the World Combat League and his first fight ended with him knocking his opponent out cold, the next fight didn't exactly go as planed he was the one getting knocked out this time. But, despite that, despite being told that he was athletic enough for any professional sports, he is one now. 

Lyoto Machida next fight

Machida, is the new UFC light heavy champion. He beat then undefeated Rashard Evans. He knocked him down twice in the first round, something that seems unheard of vs Evans. Then he knocked him unconsis early in the second round. Machida has let to lose a round in his 16 fight career, and it has been amazing to watch. His next fight is also his first title defense against Quentin "Rampage" Jackson. I think it will be a great fight and i hope Rampage gets that belt back. He is the most exciting fighter to watch, from his knockouts to his amazing slams. And its projected to be the highest grossing fight in the history of the UFC.
