OneFC held their inaugural card early Saturday at Singapore Indoor Stadium in Singapore, and it proved to be a really fun event with some great action-filled matches. The card featured a good mix of UFC and TUF veterans, Asian stars and prospects, and a requisite Gracie. I highly recommend watching the main event featuring Eduard Folayang and A Sol Kwon, …
UFC 132: Cruz beats Faber, Ortiz beats retirement
Tito Ortiz tried to warn us. His main UFC 132 promo talking points centered around a defense of his five-fight, fight-year winless streak. He tried to remind us that, save for a beating at the hands of Matt Hamill, he was competitive throughout all his losses, all of which were to top-tier opponents like Forrest Griffin, Lyoto Machida and Rashad …
Strikeforce Challengers 16 results
Caros Fodor pressured and swarmed James Terry to win the main event at Strikeforce Challengers 16 last night. Asking for a step-up in competition during his post-fight interview, Fodor wants and deserves to graduate from Challengers to the regular Strikeforce cards. Ryan Couture on the other hand saw his stock drop with a loss to Matt Ricehouse, who played a …
Strikeforce: Overeem vs. Werdum results and recap
Maybe there was too much riding on it. Or maybe they gassed. Or maybe it was just a stalemate. To co-opt a phrase from Strikeforce announcer Gus Johnson for something much more worthy of the sentiment: sometimes these things happen in MMA. Whatever it was, when Alistair Overeem met Fabiricio Werdum last night in the quarterfinals of Strikeforce’s Grand Prix …
The Score Fighting Series in Mississauga, fight results and recap
The Score Fighting Series continued to establish itself as one of the premiere fight leagues in Canada, hitting the Hershey Centre last night for Mississauga’s first sanctioned pro-MMA event. The 10 fight card featured a good mix of established Canadian fighters, prospects, and international names. Jordan Mein (pictured on right) came through with a unanimous decision win against Dream welterweight …
UFC The Ultimate Fighter 13 finale results
Despite Brock Lesnar as a coach and the train-wreck drunken meltdown of Anthony Ferguson in the later episodes, season 13 of the The Ultimate Fighter was a bit of lackluster affair. The finale though featured a highly entertaining and relevant lightweight battle between contenders Clay Guida and Anthony Pettis, as well as devastating KOs courtesy of Scott Jorgensen and season …
UFC 130 Rampage vs. Hamill results
UFC 130 was seriously hurt by the absence of a rubber match between Frankie Edgar and Gray Maynard (and also, to a lesser extent, the replacement of Thiago Silva with Matt Hamill). In the makeshift main event, Rampage Jackson beat up Matt Hamill for three rounds but failed to electrify the crowd. That said, last night provided several good bouts …
UFC 129 results: Biggest and best UFC of all time?
The biggest UFC in history was also maybe the greatest card we’ve seen yet. Despite a relatively restrained main event, the night was stacked from top-to-bottom with amazing finishes, tremendous displays of heart, emotional moments, and all around fantastic martial artistry. There’s way too much to talk about, so sound off in the comments with your reactions. Here are the …
UFC 128 results: Jon Jones demolishes Shogun Rua
Jon Jones lived up to the hype and then some at UFC 128, decimating Mauricio “Shogun” Rua to become the youngest champ in UFC history at 23 years-old. Already some are clamouring for a super-fight with Anderson Silva, and after Jones’s amazingly dominant performance tonight against one of the best light-heavyweights (current and all-time), it’s hard to blame them. Gleison …
Strikeforce Feijao vs. Henderson results
The already highly decorated Dan Henderson just added another title to his career collection. He’s 40 years-old and not only one of the all-time bests to ever do it, he’s now the current Strikeforce light-heavyweight world champion. Clap for him. Marloes Coenen successfully deterred Liz Carmouche’s plan to take home the women’s welterweight strap, but Bloody Elbow reports it wasn’t …
