We finally have another confusing Dream 16 promo to look at
I was watching Ong Bak 2 (which is apparently the greatest movie ever made) and at the end, I realized that I watched an entire movie in Thai and it still made more sense than every Dream promo made since 2008. Just as you expected, the Dream 16 promo video
The Sunday Morning Rumor Mill
No MMA this weekend does not denote that there won’t be a slew of fresh rumors to promptly be inserted into our weekly rumor mill. The NFL season is here, fall is officially here and it’s finally time to start rocking hoodies instead of cut-off jean capris. This Sunday Morning
Michael Bisping thinks Patrick Cote is an irrelevant piece of [expletive]
After collecting a series of overhand rights from two of the greatest fighters to ever compete in Pride FC, Michael Bisping is still bewildered by the concept of not hitting the rest of his division with his verbal artillery. Most of you would be divided on where this falls in
Takanori Gomi now has his own comic book documenting his life
Knocking Tyson Griffin out was thought to be impossible. Mortals simply can’t do it. If you ever wondered why Takanori Gomi was dubbed “The Fireball Kid”, refer to the right hook that served Tyson Griffin his first loss via hadoken. His first UFC win was so amazing that Japanese Manga
Watch this Bas Rutten Shark Fights 13 promo and get happy
The upcoming Shark Fights 13 card makes me want to do the peanut-butter jelly dance up and down my street. Take a look at the main card and tell me you aren’t chicken noodle souping it in your living room: Jardine vs Prangley, Soukoudjou vs Alexander, Masdival vs Daley and
Hide your fruit stand, Din Thomas is coming to the WEC
If everything could just work out like it’s supposed to, my life would be a lot like Scrooge McDuck’s and his daily routine of swimming laps in his moneybin. Instead, it’s like an episode of Always Sunny in Philadelphia, which is the furthest thing from what my high school guidance
Michael Bisping suggests Dan Hardy is a traitor to his own country
Now we all need to patiently wait for UFC to cut a promo with Michael Bisping screaming ‘There’s going to be some English on English crime!’. It worked for Rashad Evans and Rampage at UFC 114, let’s see how receptive a British audience raised on Marmite and Lucozade will be.
Since there’s no MMA this weekend, watch this fight between Aoki and Diaz
A weekend without MMA is like Raisin Bran without the raisins. It’s like an episode of Maury without the unplanned teen pregnancies. A weekend without MMA is like all the members of the Wu-Tang Clan reuniting on stage, but without ODB (RIP). It’s a tragic, frightening and makes you question
Don Frye says he wasn’t an athlete, just a ‘raw boned guy’
Don Frye does not have to answer the phone. His mustache picks up the incoming electrical impulses and translate them into audible sound. That joke worked a lot better when it belonged to Chuck Norris. I’m sure Don Frye’s mustache doesn’t appreciate being panned in on hand-me-down Chuck Norris beard
Joe Warren credits Scott Jorgensen for the explosion detonated on Soto’s face
All hype Joe Warren receives today is well deserved. Let me fix that. All hype Joe Warren receives on any day is well deserved. I’m at the point where I’m questioning whether Joe Warren actually tapped at Dream 11 against Bibiano Fernandes. If Warren found a way to get past
Manny Pacquiao wants to try MMA but his management won’t let him
If there was one person that most accurately reflects the kid that used to hop on my school bus and beat up kids for their Starter jackets, Manny Pacquiao is definitely that guy. Everyone was afraid of him because people said he had down syndrome which we thought meant that
The Friday Morning MMA Link Party
It’s Friday morning and the last thing you want to do is be stuck in your office/classroom/mother’s basement when you’re on the verge of getting belligerently drunk tonight. It’s cool. Start the party ahead of schedule with our Friday Morning MMA Link Party since it’s what all the cool kids
Watch Joe Warren shock the world at Bellator 27
Joe Warren vs. Joe Soto was such an astonishing fight, Bellator made a highlight reel and placed it on YouTube in just a few hours. These guys understand what it means to be viral in a non-communicable disease sort of way. When Joe Warren pulled the upset over Kid Yamamoto
Thiago Alves is fighting John Howard at UFC 124 and we’re all going to like it
A couple of days ago on MMAJunkie radio, Mike Pierce called out Thiago Alves and had some pretty decent smack talk regarding Alves on Facebook. On Twitter, Pierce said ‘This place is as dead as Thiago Alves’ and ‘Thiago Alves to be featured on Biggest Loser on Dec 23rd’. He
Joe Warren vs. Joe Soto comes on TONIGHT!
It’s the only MMA any of us will be seeing this week, so if you vehemently hate the sport of mixed martial arts, despise equally matched title fights and refuse to see spectacular finishes, don’t watch Bellator 27 tonight on Fox Sports West. Your friends will make fun of you
KJ Noons thinks Nick Diaz is a trash-talking, pot-smoking chump
For those of you who aren’t familiar with the Nick Diaz and KJ Noons rivalry, the beef started back in Elite XC where a controversial doctor stoppage handed Diaz his only loss in the past 3 years. Winning a fight due to a doctor stoppage in the first round is
EA Sports MMA will not be released in Denmark due to a strange Scandinavian law
When the Kool-Aid man breaks through a wall in a commercial, all the kids start cheering. Imagine a seven-foot pitcher full of Kool-Aid breaking through your house screaming ‘Oh yeah!’, it’s a horrifying thought. He might spill over and get some of himself on the carpet. The worst thing is,
If you missed the UFC Fan Expo, Bloodstain Lane has you covered
In all fairness, the entire MiddleEasy crew was supposed to go to the UFC Fan Expo in a taco truck and serve up carne asada goodness for fans of the site. Sadly the idea didn’t work out after we learned that tacos are not an approved cuisine at the John
Karo Parisyan is BACK in the UFC!
I could be looking too far into it, but when Dana says that you ‘[Expletive] the UFC’ by pulling out of the fight the day before weigh-ins, it looks like that may denote a lifetime ban. In fact, it did constitute a lifetime ban in the promotion, but in ZUFFA
Overeem accepts Fedor’s challenge, plans to fight him after K-1
The greatest thing about Alistair Overeem accepting Fedor’s challenge to fight him after he’s done with the K-1 Grand Prix is that he actually watched a Bloodstain Lane video on a message board and responded. Next step for Alistair Overeem is to accept my friend request on Xbox Live. The
