- Jon Jones The Evolution of Look-See-DoThomas Gerbasi, UFC - Jon Jones stood in the Octagon on the night of December 5, 2009, disappointed, but with his head held high. There would be no whining, no complaining, no angry outbursts after his disqualification loss against Matt Hamill, though he probably would have been justified on all three counts. […]
- Inside Jon Jones' killer workoutsAt 22, Jon 'Bones' Jones may be talked about as the Next Big Thing in the UFC, but the phenom's eye-popping abilities aren't an accident. The 6-foot-3, light heavyweight phenom and former All-American Greco-Roman wrestler has a training regimen as unorthodox as the kicks and strikes for which he's known. Each exercise is designed to […]
- Vera Ready to go Retro on Jon JonesMike Russell, UFC - In the summer of 2003, Brandon Vera was standing in a supermarket checkout line and picked up the latest issue of Muscle and Fitness magazine to browse through it while he waited. The cover featured a lean, mean looking badass named Frank Mir, who at the time was touted by many as being "the next big thing" in the UFC. Accompany […]
- UFC CONFIRMS REMAINING BOUTS FOR UFN: FLORIAN VS GOMILas Vegas, NV (USA) - Home to two of the first five Ultimate Fighting Championship® (UFC®) events, Charlotte, North Carolina will once again host the premier organization in mixed martial arts on Wednesday, March 31st, as the UFC returns to Charlotte for the first time in nearly 15 years with a spectacular card at the Bojangles Coliseum featuring the lightwe […]
- James Irvin -Still StandingThomas Gerbasi, UFC - For years before they even made it to the big shows, my buddy and colleague Jason Probst always told me about James Irvin, Scott Smith, and Urijah Faber - a trio of friends and training partners from Northern California that he insisted had the right stuff to make it big in the still growing sport of mixed martial arts. Irvin, now a UFC […]
- Paul Buentello The Headhunter Sharpens His ToolsThomas Gerbasi, UFC - Paul Buentello is old-school, in the Octagon and in life. So the idea of uprooting himself and retooling his game after 36 fights and nearly 13 years in the pro game wasn't exactly embraced with open arms. […]
- Reinventing Eliot Marshall, a Fight at a TimeThomas Gerbasi, UFC - It may have been the greatest compliment a fighter could receive. When talking about his loss to Eliot Marshall last September, Jason Brilz admitted to being totally surprised at how Marshall went from ground wizard to stick and move artist, leaving the veteran out of sorts as he dropped a three round unanimous decision at UFC 103. […]
- Gabriel Gonzaga Energized for Another Title RunMartins Denis, UFC - Seconds prior to Gabriel 'Napao' Gonzaga's most recent fight against Chris 'The Crowbar' Tuchscherer last August at UFC 102, blow-by-blow commentator Mike Goldberg asked the question that everybody wanted to know before the two touched gloves. […]
- The Blueprint: Vera vs JonesMichael DiSanto, UFC - Succinctly stated, Brandon Vera versus Jon Jones is going to be one heck of a scrap. Vera is a guy who likes to fight on the feet with calculated pressure, picking his spots from the outside as he breaks down an opponent with long-range punches and some of the best leg kicks in the business. He is also excellent in the clinch with bot […]

When doing the Liddell dance, it’s important to keep your defense WIDE and to NEVER make the first move… I’m a Chuck fan but this one goes out to all of HIS fans who desperately want him to tweak his stand-up technique and dominate once again. People who lost money on him should enjoy this too:) *edit* Just revisited this video…and because of the way Chuck has basically gone out, with a kill or be killed gusto, I have a renewed, lasting respect for the man. I would’ve actually taken this …
