KJ Noons had entirely too much fun at the Strikeforce open workouts

We’ll be there, eventually. Perhaps even tonight. There’s no way we can make the Strikeforce: Diaz vs. Noons II press-conference which will be held today at 12:00 PM, but count us in for the official weigh-ins held tomorrow as well as the fight. Unfortunately, we missed yesterday’s open workouts where

Alright, you win. We’ve added another style to our limited edition VXRSI shirt

I read your comments, regardless of how painful it is at times. Shot through the heart, and you’re to blame. Darling, you give love a bad name. That’s how I would start off today if I were limited to communicating with only Bon Jovi lyrics. Most of you thought our

Nick Diaz says he doesn’t have any money because he spends it all on food

Stockton, California is the city that never sleeps, but takes a lot of friggin’ weed naps. Nick Diaz knows what it’s like to use the hot water from the coffee machine at Circle K to make Cup-O-Noodles at 2am in the morning. We’ve all been there — and if you

Brendan Schaub verbally urinates on Brock Lesnar’s camp

Brendan Schaub is signed to MC Hammer’s MMA agency, Alchemist Management, alongside Nate Marquardt, Tim Kennedy, Jorge Riveria, Antoni Hardonk and Stefan Struve just to name a few. Subsequently, this makes them all ‘Too Legit Too Quit’. Don’t expect any tapping out from these guys (On a side-note, apparently I’m

Check out Cris Cyborg completely nude in ESPN The Magazine

Gina Carano isn’t the only chick that can pose nude in an ESPN magazine and show absolutely nothing. Damn. I remember those days when nude meant what it said it meant. Now being naked is just another way MMA websites force people to click on misleading titles. Check out both

It’s official, Shane Carwin has signed a bout agreement to face Roy Nelson at UFC 125

Whenever Shane Carwin throws a punch, he gives brain damage to a lot of undeserving air molecules. Normally this wouldn’t cause any alarm, but now the guy has to explain what he did to all the little oxygen wives that are now widows. If I were to start a ‘Save

Jens Pulver is selling his ultra-rare custom car on eBay

Only 100 of these 2007 ROUSH Roadsters were produced and only two people have defeated BJ Penn as a lightweight. Half of the people that defeated BJ Penn at 155lbs owns an ultra-rare ROUSH Roadster. Of course this means that statistically, your chances of defeating BJ Penn at lightweight increases

Josh Koscheck claims he broke a hockey player’s arm just for touching his hair

Hockey is a cool sport to accidentally spill your beer over a person sitting next to you and immediately get kicked out of whatever place you were in. This is all from experience, which is the sole reason why I’m no longer a hockey fan. I don’t need to get

GSP is not in Dana White’s top 3 pound-for-pound list

Rankings are senseless, egotistical and elitist. What does the term ‘pound-for-pound’ even mean? I’ve been told that it’s the potential for a fighter to take on any other fighter in any other division regardless of weight. Even that explanation is just as silly as the notion of journalists dictating who

Sean McCorkle reveals ‘insider information’ on his UFC debut

Despite Sean McCorkle giving himself the moniker ‘Big Sexy’, there is no way I can verify this. This is the time when I would enlist the help of my female readers (or Mets fans) to evaluate the sexiness of Sean McCorkle. However, in this case I will take McCorkle’s word

Watch the only promo you need to get amped for Hughes vs. Penn III

The last time I wrote about Matt Hughes vs. Bj Penn III, I used a Gummi Bear analogy that was highly under appreciated. Fine, that’s the last time I’ll start off an article with an object made up entirely of high-fructose corn syrup.
Every time NickTheFace makes a video, you

Take a voyage deep within Dan Hardy’s shopping bag

Sometimes it feels like I should have more of a personal relationship with Dan Hardy. The guy literally lives down the street from me, and I’ve done nothing to notify him that I’m in the same proximity as him. Just imagine how incredibly uncomfortable it would be if I knocked

Genghis Con reinvents JZ Cavalcante with just one video

In just four days, Josh Thomson will step inside the cage with JZ Cavalcante and the winner will hypothetically be matched-up against every Japanese lightweight fighter on MMA message boards across the world. That’s just a constant in the sport. A 155lber wins and people will find at least five

Eddie Alvarez confronts Scott Coker about a fight with Gilbert Melendez

Over the weekend, a guy I met said he was going to create a persona and call himself ‘Times New Roman Helwani’. It’s probably the worst idea I’ve heard this year — which, of course, makes it the greatest idea I’ve heard this year. I’m not sure how inebriated this

Sengoku is now selling all their event posters online

The greatest trick Sengoku ever pulled was convincing the world that SRC never existed. That’s actually a quote from The Usual Suspects, but I replaced the word ‘Devil’ with ‘Sengoku’ in an attempt to make your heads explode with incredibly wit. It didn’t work, and most of you are still

Scott Coker hired extra security for Diaz vs. Noons II

Look Scott Coker, Nick Diaz and KJ Noons are alright. They’re not going to attack or cause some riot in San Jose before their fight this weekend. You need to hire security for KJ Noons’ dad. Once again, I’ll be in the same vicinity as him and if I can

War Machine calls out Junie Browning in his new prison blog

War Machine. Not that War Machine, but this War Machine. The War Machine formally known as Jonathan Koppenhaver. You may remember seeing him on The Ultimate Fighter: Team Hughes vs. Team Serra in which he depressed half of America by telling a story of when he was 14, he tried
