May 21th, 2013
Taking a break from catching up on TUF Brazil Season 2 to talk about 12 things I’m pondering about a really stacked UFC 160 card. It’s a great card and one with plenty to sink our teeth into.
1. Is this the most relevant PPV main card since UFC 156? I mean division…
Call me crazy but if JDS decides to stand with Hunt (and considering his...

“When I was out in Vegas for The Ultimate Fighter tryouts was when I let him go. I let him know formally that I wouldn’t be needing his services. And it was because he, of course, sent me a new contract right before I went out to Vegas. So because of certain red flags…one of them being that he exhibited the behavior of an alcoholic. Every time I saw him personally, one-on-one,...

“Nate doesn’t feel remorse for what he said,” Kogan told host Ariel Helwani.”I don’t feel remorse for what he said. I don’t feel remorse for defending what he said or elaborating on what he said. Because it was not a homophobic statement. It was not intended to offend homosexuals. We weren’t even talking about homosexuals. One can debate the multiple uses of this term. We can...

Glover Teixeira vs Fabio Maldonado
Don’t watch if you have a weak heart. One of the most one sided beat-downs in MMA history. Glover will look to continue his hot streak as he rides an 18 fight win streak into this Saturday (May 25th). He will be against another tough fighter that doesn’t go away in James Te-Huna at UFC 160.

JARAGUA DO SUL, Brazil – After a three-fight stint in the UFC, lightweight John Cholish said he will retire following his loss to Gleison Tibau. But he also told MMAjunkie.com he believes lower-level fighters need better compensation.

Damn.
Now Lineker won’t get his bonus. Big wheel kick KO by Vitor Belfort. Nice to see his striking game has rounded out since his days of just blitzing dudes.

Jacare finally in the UFC.
It’s a great day. Props to Carmozzi for stepping up on short notice to take on a great fighter in his home country.
Nice to finally see this in the Octagon.

As competitive as that fight was
I’m struggling to give RDA anything more than 29-28 Dunham. Fun scrap though.

Lineker is a badass. Hopefully he ends up with a bonus by the end of the night.

Formiga should mix it up on the ground more. Add some GnP from the half guard. It’d make it easier for him to pass.
