UFC 67 – Analysis

Wednesday, January 31st, 2007

By Stephan Marceau This card is called All or Nothing, well this could be the shortest main card for the UFC in awhile (in terms of fight time). Its a good thing GSP got injured or the PPV could have been mostly 1 rounders! People are looking for upsets here, but I dont think so. […]

Hockey becomes a punchline for MMA

Monday, January 29th, 2007

Eddie Goldman issues challenges

Saturday, January 27th, 2007

By Zach Arnold One of the hot topics today revolves around comments that Eddie Goldman made on his radio show about the UFC Ultimate Fight Night 8 event that took place on Thursday.

Saturday news clippings

Saturday, January 27th, 2007

By Zach Arnold Hey, an endorsement for our radio show. The most intriguing news of the day comes to us via Sankei Sports, which is reporting that Pancrase is tying up business-wise with BodogFIGHT.
