One more note on Shamrock-Le: I am not trying to take anything away from both men by stating it wasn't a fight of the year candidate. That third round was a tremendous display of guts and courage made even better by Mauro Ranallo, Stephen Quadros and Bill Goldberg's call of ...

I didn't have the guts to go all out and predict a Cung Le victory prior to his bout against Frank Shamrock but I wish I did because as far as performances by a fighter with six career MMA fights against someone with 34, this was one of the best ...

Frank Shamrock vs. Cung Le finally goes down this Saturday night and it's about time since it seems as though we've been waiting for it a long time. That said, this one certainly seems to be lacking the kind of hype and excitement that surrounded Baroni-Shamrock in June. It might ...

We all heard the news that Vince McMahon purchased WCW one fateful Friday in March of 2001 but it was on this date seven years ago that it was all set it stone. The final episode of WCW Nitro aired on TNT and when the telecast opened with Mr. McMahon ...

Quinton "Rampage" Jackson is probably being pulled in 800 different directions nowadays. He is arguably the most marketable MMA fighter around and he is also about to star on the seventh season of The Ultimate Fighter on Spike TV (season premiere is on 4/2 @ 10 pm).

It was on this date seven years ago that Mark Coleman defeated Allan Goes via TKO at PRIDE 13. The win was Coleman's sixth in a row but it kicked off a rough four fight stretch in which he lost three of his next four bouts. Although consider the fact ...

Apparently when you interview models on the world of combat sports other models want in on the action. I kid you not. Exhibit A: the wonderful Cilicia Teal. She saw our interview with Ashley Mull and just sent us in her take on the exact same questions along with some, ...
