Friday, August 10th, 2007Al Bundy on MMA. People in boxing don’t know how to respond to the rise of MMA in America.

Thursday trash talk: The future of BodogFight
Wednesday, August 8th, 2007The current RSS feed for the WEC HP is here. However, as you notice on their HP, the feed is severely lagging behind the site updates.

Wednesday war room: Horse play
Wednesday, August 8th, 2007The estimable Dave Doyle comments on the CSAC reducing James Toney’s drug suspension from one year to six months in length: Or maybe they’re sending the worst signal of all: Maybe California’s commissioners are a pack of hypocrites with a glaring double standard. Maybe they’re just paying lip service to the notion of cracking down […]

Tuesday headlines: Spencer Fisher out, Kenny Florian in
Tuesday, August 7th, 2007A new edition of Total MMA is now available. Mauro Ranallo is not a fan of what Vince McMahon said yesterday.

Toney was suspended by the CSAC earlier this year after testing positive for […]

Newspaper rips Dana White over ESPN interview
Sunday, August 5th, 2007By Zach Arnold This past week has not been a particularly great showing for Dana White in terms of issues relating to credibility, based on statements he made in a recent ESPN The Magazine interview. I posted criticism about White comments and Fightlinker took issue with White’s claims about nandrolone. On Fight Opinion Radio this […]
Another drive-by media attack on MMA
Sunday, August 5th, 2007It’s irritating enough to deal with daily drive-by media attacks on MMA when the outlets are newspapers like The Grand Rapids Press and the Mason City Globe Gazette.
