I just received this press release and while I usually don't post these this one was just too good to ignore. I didn't think Mayweather could top the Cinco De Mayo outfit he wore to the ring before the De La Hoya fight but come Saturday night he most certainly ...

Meet Patrycja Mikula (left). She's a Playboy Cyber Girl, a one-time IFL ring card girl and an all around great lady. Oh, she's also Andrei Arlovski's girlfriend.
You remember Arlovski, right? The guy who beat Fabricio Werdum at UFC 70 in what was supposed to be a match for the number ...

Love him or hate him, Gabe Ruediger will, without a doubt, go down as one of the most controversial cast members on The Ultimate Fighter reality show.
That's not really an earth-shattering statement considering the fact that California native seemed to do just about everything to get under the skin of ...

Caplan vs. Harkness. 5 oz. of Pain vs. FightLinker. The Battle of the Bloggers is nearing, my friends.

If you're a fan of World Wrestling Entertainment chances are you've already heard of Brent Albright...sort of.

The last time pro wrestling fans saw Diamond Dallas Page working on the national scene was in May 2005. At that point in his career, Page was wrestling for TNA but hardly anyone was watching TNA in those days (this was before the promotion began on Spike in October of ...
