Boner alert: Vera/Couture weigh-in photo
Everyone made weight for the Strikeforce Challengers show tonight. The newsworthy item? This fantastic photo by the great Esther Lin taken after Kerry Vera and Kim Couture got off the scale. It brings up a good question after seeing last weekend’s fight between their husband and ...

Story time with Mac Danzig
Here’s an interesting story from Mac Danzig I read on Sherdog : Seven years ago, I was coming off a decision loss in the WEC that was held in Connecticut. As if a five-hour plane ride back home after a disappointing loss wasn’t miserable enough, Tito Ortiz was sitting directly in ...

JackalFights: Caol Uno vs. Jean-Jacques Machado
Here is some good old grappling featuring a guy fighting on Saturday

Karo Parisyan gets himself kicked out of the UFC
I think the tweets from Dana White (via Cage Tater ) above are pretty self explanatory. Very little info coming back from Karo, but MMAWeekly has one of those ‘excuses’ Karo gave - the old “It’s the government’s fault” line, with Karo claiming the Nevada ...

Anderson’s elbow is still screwed up
The UFC headliner trainwreck continues as Anderson Silva sends word that his recently surgerized elbow isn’t healing as quickly as originally expected. “I went to the doctor who takes care of me in Brazil on Monday. I had surgery in the United States but there is communication ...

Celebrate good times, COME ON!
Sometimes Jose Aldo like to do the dance, do the dance!

Does Karo have his shit together?
Karo Parisyan has had a pretty shitty two years - he went from being a top contender in a stacked welterweight division to unimpressive headcase in the span of a few fights. This weekend he’s taking on Dustin Hazelett, and I have no doubt that if Karo isn’t the Karo of old ...

Couture vs Coleman at UFC 109
Poor Dana White. He’s trying to put together some winning hands here with half the royalty missing from his deck of cards. Considering everything, I think he and Joe Silva are doing decent job with their lemons to lemonade matchmaking. Sure, there’s barely any belt defenses, but ...

JackalFights: Jose Aldo vs Anderson Silverio
In case you forgot the WEC is tomorrow with Jose Aldo in the Main Card, by the way he’s the guy who raped Cub Swanson.

Open your third eye
Cub Swanson, post-Jose Aldo. The flying double-knee that did it after the jump. (tip o’ the stove pipe hat to themachiavellian for the find!)

UFC 106 & WEC 44 Degenerate Gambling Odds
Another week and yet another chance to make a sound financial investment. But if there’s one thing you’ve learned about money in your time on this floating rock of misery, it’s that sound financial investments are for pussies. Real men take risks in situations where ...

Sam Sheridan on why MMA isn’t gay
Everyone understands why MMA is both the most and least gay sport in the world. You’ve got guys in their skivvies rolling around on the ground together all sweaty like, grunting and groaning as they try to force their opponent into submission. Sure, they’re not doing it for any ...

Wamma’s got a brand new belt
Looks like you can update WAMMA’s status from ‘Dead’ to ‘Clinging desperately to relevance’ … they showed up at last week’s Strikeforce: Fedor vs Rogers event with decals on the mat and a brand new belt. The crowns (WAMMA’s new key logo ...

Strikeforce: Evolution
The poster for Strikeforce’s next big event in December. Not featured on the poster: ugly ass Matt Lindland, who’ll be taking on Jacare. I’m just excited to hear that Matt is capable of eating solid food again after what Vitor Belfort did to him. Here’s the lineup as ...

Shirt madness!
Esther and Casey at All Elbows weren’t just content with taking the best MMA pictures and making the best MMA videos. They just put out their first shirt, and it’s dope too. Magical rainbow look on classy charcoal fabric, this is way better than whatever eagle / skull / random ...

Brock’s gut feeling
Depending on who you believe, Brock Lesnar is either fighting a career-ending illness or about to head home from the hospital after a few days. What we know for certain is that the problem he’s having is with his intestinal tract, a tricky area of the body Fightlinker readers from two ...

JackalFights: Tim Carpenter vs Brandon Vera

See Dan run. Run, Dan, run.
I’d call Winner a loser for giving Roli McDojo that extra tap, but Roli got up from it the first time so better safe than sorry. Plus, it’s the ref’s job to keep stuff like that from happening. Congrats to Big Tan Dan Miragliotta for being about as far away from the right ...
