Stephan Bonnar’s Latest Business Endeavor
After his loss to Mark Coleman (16-9 MMA, 7-4 UFC) , there were many who thought that Stephan Bonnar (11-6 MMA, 5-5 UFC) was done in the UFC, and he may be done in the Octagon, but he is not done working with the UFC. In a report issued by MMAJunkie , Bonnar will be launching a line of mixed martial arts paintings and art pieces, and has recieved the blessing of the UFC to use images which are the property of Zuffa LLC. The American Psycho, it seems, has put his experience in the cage to use… (Full Story)
Bonnar vs. Coleman: A Generational Clash
While Stephan Bonnar (11-5 MMA, 5-4 UFC) may have disappeared from the public consciousness and the top of the UFC lightheavyweight division after his back-to-back losses to future champs Rashad Evans (13-1-1 MMA, 8-1-1 UFC, #2 IWMMAR) and Forrest Griffin (16-5 MMA, 7-3 UFC, #4 IWMMAR). It didn’t help that in the loss to Griffin (their second bout, at UFC 62), Bonnar tested positive for a banned substance. That said, Mark Coleman (15-9 MMA, 6-4 UFC) has been out of the public consciousness… (Full Story)
My thoughts on UFC 94
Its rare these days to watch a MMA event and see 8 out of 10 bouts end in decision. It’s even more rare to find that half of those decisions were (as they always are) controversial split decisions where both sides are plagued with the realization that many fans aren’t completely convinced that one side won while the other side lost. But, it was bound to happen and it happened on a night that many UFC fans were looking for a night of knockout and submission action on a card that was filled with… (Full Story)

Fitch vs. Gono deemed as Prelim bout for UFC 94
Earlier today, the UFC released the official bout order slated for “UFC 94: St Pierre vs. Penn II.” The event is scheduled to take place on January 31st at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The main event of the card is a clash which needs no introduction, a clash that one would only read about in Greek Mythology; Georges St. Pierre vs. B.J. Penn will easily be considered one of the biggest fights in UFC history. Forget Couture/Lesnar, this one holds all the marbles. In what… (Full Story)
Hous-Done?
UFC 71 was supposed to be just another fight for Keith Jardine. As he looked across the octagon at Houston Alexander he had no clue what the next few minutes would hold. Just 48 seconds into the fight, Jardine was finished, and a new superstar nicknamed The Assassin was upon us… or we thought. It appeared that a new name would surface in the 205 pound weight class. What a difference a year makes. Since getting TKO victories over Jardine and Alessio Sakara, Houston Alexander has dropped… (Full Story)
UFC 77 Preview
In a string of bad luck decisions/good luck decision consequences, the much maligned stretch of two B-level UFC pay-per-view broadcasts kicks off tomorrow night in Cincinnati. Perhaps, being more realistic, it’s bad luck, even more horrible luck (some might say karma), followed by decent luck in consequences. But Fedor signing with M-1, followed by Couture leaving the UFC abruptly, has left the Brandon Vera vs Tim Sylvia heavyweight bout meaning much more. Add to that a main event with a… (Full Story)
The Ultimate Fighter, Running On Fumes.
Is it just me or has the overall talent on The Ultimate Fighter really started to drop off? I recall the first season, which was a cast filled with familiar names to those who were paying attention before Spike TV got in the mix. That season boasts the largest number of fighters who are still active within the UFC. But let’s be real. Koscheck, Diego, Swick, Leben, Griffin, Bonnar and even Quarry were all UFC bound with or without the show. Ever since that first season we’ve seen the talent… (Full Story)
