The fans were the real losers at UFC 118
Published by Zach Arnold on August 30th, 2010
I’m still trying to figure out what exactly was at stake at UFC 118 between Randy Couture and James Toney. Sure, it was marketed as UFC vs. boxing and yes, the fans at TD Garden chanted “UFC! UFC! UFC!” during the fight, but what was the point of the fight? James Toney suckered everyone into [...] (Read More)

Fighter safety – Should the powerbombpower slams be banned from MMA
July 29th, 2010 - I was recently listening to the Pro MMA radio show and there was a discussion between radio host Larry Pepe and MMAMania.com writer Jesse Holland over Sarah Kaufman’s powerbomb of Roxanne Modafferi at Strikeforce’s Everett, Washington event last Friday night (that aired on Showtime).
