Sunday, October 8th, 2006Image credit: IronLife.com Here’s the old Evan Tanner (here and here). Now meet the new Evan Tanner (here and here). Notice Evan’s impersonation of Randy Savage in the second picture. At least Evan isn’t causing trouble and being a hooligan like the the fine folks near Lincoln, Nebraska at an MMA show. Obviously these fans […]

Sunday brunch of MMA news & notes
Sunday, October 8th, 2006I’ll update this post throughout the day (or someone else will, anyhow). Sherdog: Strikeforce draws 5,000 in Fresno, Sherdog says, “…few fans were there to watch (Paul) Buentello.” Don’t fear me, fear the consequences! Strikeforce’s promoter sure did. (Ed. That’s uncalled for. I apologize. We didn’t even think Tank would get knocked out that fast.) […]

Make your HERO’s event predictions
Saturday, October 7th, 2006Yahoo Japan HP: Front page mentions Ken Kaneko Monday features two relatively big shows in Japan (one MMA, one pro-wrestling), with the MMA event being the HERO’s show produced by K-1 at Yokohama Arena. There has been a very high volume of press coverage for this event in the last two weeks, and most of […]
Saturday MMA media notes
Saturday, October 7th, 2006Update: PRIDE 11/5 Bushido card line-up added to this article (view it in full-post mode). Post updated at 5:45 PM EST. The MMA calendar for October is off the charts in terms of activity. There has been a full-court press this last week (and going into the weekend) for the HERO’s event that will take […]

Plus, a long UFC roundtable breaking down the UFC Ken/Tito III & UFC 64 events, along with Erin Bucknell undergoing the grueling questions asked by Joe […]
Similar Histories: UFC and WWE.
Friday, October 6th, 2006By: Luke Nicholson To some people the similarities between UFC and WWE might just be coincidence, or maybe there are small little details that separate them, and to an extent that might be true. But, the fact that these two promotions are following such a similar timeline, and given the similar personalities that run both […]
Was the Sherdog site hacked?
Friday, October 6th, 2006I subscribe to the RSS feeds from Sherdog’s site. This morning, in my RSS reader, this showed up (the link is to a screen capture of the RSS feed). So, was their site actually hacked? Or was this the case of some minor-league hacker attempting to screw around with their site and/or RSS feeds?
Super Challenge 10/7 Brazil event
Thursday, October 5th, 2006Denis Martins is an MMA writer based in Brazil. If you would like to contact him with writing opportunities or just for feedback to this article, e-mail him at [email protected]. Has a premier organization been created in Brazil? This is the striking question when I think about the Super Challenge event that will take place […]
Tito Ortiz: Put boxing match with Dana on PPV
Thursday, October 5th, 2006Dave Doyle at Fox Sports has a very good interview/article piece on Tito Ortiz. Dave also gives his thoughts on the promoting styles of both UFC & PRIDE: UFC models itself after boxing promotions. PRIDE’s roots trace back to pro wrestling. Rarely has this been more obvious than in the buildup to PRIDE’s The Real […]
The Ultimate Fighter Season 4, Episode 8
Thursday, October 5th, 2006By Zach Arnold Update: The Boston Herald tells you what you didn’t see on TUF with Jorge Rivera’s post-fight speech. I realize that he was personal in the information he relayed in his interview, but why would TUF TV producers edit this out of the show? It would have really been interesting to watch and […]
Dana White: No actors allowed
Thursday, October 5th, 2006By Zach Arnold We’ve seen a MMA and pro-wrestling crossover with various UFC stars in the past (starting with Dan Severn and Ken Shamrock, who happens to be fighting on October 10th for UFC). Yeah, that Ken Shamrock guy, who worked for TNA & UFC. The same guy who worked in the old UFC days […]
