If you're a wrestling fan you know all about the term "cruiserweight." It's basically a glorified jobber (aka loser for the non-wrestling folks out there). Coincidentally enough, it kind of has the same connotation in boxing.
Basically, Cruiserweights have always been known as plumpy Light Heavyweights or tiny Heavyweights. You know, ...

In the Spring of 1977, the Montreal Expos left Jarry Park and moved into the dreaded Olympic Stadium. This came after eight seasons of playing ball at le Parc Jarry.
Well, after six months of transforming Jarry Park into The Coliseum of Combat Sports, I felt that it was finally time ...

It's a question that has been on the minds of MMA fans for several months: Will Andrei Arlovski re-sign with the UFC or choose to fight elsewhere?
Obviously, "the Pitbull" has kept his lips sealed so I decided to bypass him and go straight for the person closest to the former ...

Random thoughts while dreaming of a fourth installment of Marquez-Vazquez...
* Nice to see MMA finally make it's way to Monday Night Raw...except what was up with the boxing gloves? Does this mean we're getting a Money-Show MMA match at 'Mania? You know, of all the options out there, that would ...

Not so for our weekly ranter, John Pollock. The producer of Fight Network Radio and Live Audio Wrestling popped his UFC cherry this weekend when he made a last-minute ...

You'll never guess who I bumped into in cyberspace over the weekend. No, it wasn't "To Catch A Predator"'s Chris Hansen. It was super-owner Mark Cuban! It's strange meeting a billionaire in cyberspace and, as you can imagine, he doesn't have much time for shenanigans. However, I was able ...

* I very much enjoyed UFC 82. It wasn't the most action-packed UFC but if anyone missed it (and still doesn't know what happened) it's definitely worth watching. If, for some reason you don't possess a working television, give Yahoo.com's feed a try. I checked it out last night and ...
