TKO 31: Young Guns goes down tonight from the Bell Centre in Montreal, QC, and I'm intrigued by this card for one main reason: Steve Bossé. I know fighters with 2-0 records shouldn't be headlining shows but Bossé is an exception. You see, when he's not fighting in a TKO ...

MMA Fighter Tristan Yunker is tired of talking trash. Makes sense considering the fact that in the weeks leading up to his last fight (against Rob Kimmons) he appeared to have spent more time smack-talking than focusing on his game plan.
Unfortunately, the 22-year-old lost his bout to Kimmons in the ...

I can't break down Mayweather-Hatton any better than Larz did on No Mas Online (found here and here) so I won't even try.
Let me just say these four things, though:
1) That was one of the greatest KOs of all-time.
2) Mark Cuban's face while carrying that belt was one of the ...

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 ...

It's been several days since the death of 35-year-old mixed martial artist Samuel Vazquez was first reported and, to be honest, I have had a hard time dealing with how we should cover this tragic news. I wanted to put up some kind of dedication post but I truly felt ...

I have a confession to make. Growing up in Montreal, I hated anything to do with Canada. I am not sure why, really. I just did. No, I wasn't a separtist or anything...I just liked to be different, I guess.
Then the time came to move to the United States (for ...

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 ...
