It’s always great to visit fighters’ websites because they are always filled with little tidbits of unintentional self-degradation. I was feeling in the mood to go to Kimbo’s site considering his bout with the “Fat One” is coming up on the next TUF. (more…)

Here is a cool music video featuring Genki Sudo that I found on AllElbows. Genki shows off some of his crazed moves with a bunch of other dudes in the middle of the city. (more…)

Overall the event was entertaining. Save some slow moments, most of the fights were interesting, even though all fights went to the scorecards, save Badr Hari vs Zabit Samedov and the DQ of the night Taiei Kin vs Catalin Morosanu. I haven’t seen a K-1 event in some time (more…)

Dave Farra of MMA:30 interviews Forrest Griffin as he emerges back into the world. This is the first  I am hearing of Forrest since his destruction at the hands of Anderson Silva. Forrest seems pretty out of it, I really hope that Anderson didn’t silence the fighting spirit in him because from this interview that’s kind of the impression I get. (more…)


Strikeforce Challengers: Kennedy vs. Cummings

Saturday, September 26th, 2009 | by Dan

Strikeforce Challengers has come and gone and overall it was a pretty entertaining event. The card featured five fights and only one of them disappointed.

Ray Sefo vs Kevin Jordan

I was excited for Ray Sefo’s second MMA fight but only in the hopes that he learned some damn ground. Sadly I was disappointed. They started out standing but the second it hit the ground Sefo didn’t know what the fuck to do. If you are going to compete in an MMA fight this is just unacceptable. If you don’t have a ground game in MMA you will lose, it is as simple as that. So Sefo got dominated for the majority of the first round on the ground but survived. (more…)

Here is a Harai Goshi done by Tadashi Koike. It is from old footage but it shows the throw in slow motion which I think helps a lot for judo.
