Dollars and sense: No choice but Lesnar vs Couture at UFC 91

02 Sep 2008 22:16:04 PDT

Written by Jesse Holland
While that might sound like the negotiations between Randy Couture and Dana White, it’s actually dialog from a movie about a martial arts warrior trying to bring down an evil syndicate known as “The Octagon.” It works in stocks, real estate and yes, even mixed martial arts.

Dollars and sense: No choice but Lesnar vs Couture at UFC 91

02 Sep 2008 22:08:27 PDT

Written by Jesse Holland
Randy Couture is back in the UFC … and on Dana’s terms. For those of you who are furiously typing your dissent, don’t bother. Anything less than Couture vs. Emelianenko should be seen as a total failure for “The Natural” and all of his crusaders.

Opinion: A Depressing Look at the UFC's Competitors

02 Sep 2008 10:20:34 PDT

Written by Cannon J
Even if you are a UFC fan only, you cannot be rooting for bad business practices in MMA. What’s happening now will affect UFC long-term because sooner or later, the talent pool will dry out as less and less fighters can find work on minor shows. Once the money starts drying up, a lot of fighters a...

Written by Kid Nate
This division remains a mess! Despite a wealth of talented fighters and seven major promotions (UFC, WEC, EliteXC, DREAM, WVR, Afflictiong and Strikeforce) booking top fighters, there's more confusion than clarity at 185. First off, Anderson Silva has cleaned out the UFC middleweigh...

• Striker did a great job putting over Dreamer's worth as a wrestler and character, but his match with Chavo Guerrero was just OK. Was not that surprised to see Chavo get the duke in this one. • Finlay vs. Mike Knox was hard-hitting and had a good backstory. I think there is more potential in the Kno...

Thought: WWE Summerslam PPV review...

18 Aug 2008 07:09:43 PDT

Written by brocknroll
Batista vs. John Cena is one of the better matches that John Cena has ever been in. This match was won cleanly by Batista without any interferences this time. This match was great. Last night's Summerslam was decent and good. Score for WWE Summerslam 2008 = *** (3 Stars as in Good)

Opinion: Caution: Overuse of Professional Wrestling Tactics Can Lead to Damage

Written by Cannon J
Did you like EliteXC's first, or second CBS show better? It may be more a question of what more people like - including casual fans. However, I tend to believe that keeping the hardcore base of MMA fans satisfied is extremely important for the sport in the long-term. If you are one who belie...

Thumbs way up. There wasn't a bad match on the show, everyone I wanted to win, did, andthe outcomes were, in some cases, better than can be reasonably expected. Any one ofthese fights was more enjoyable than Jackson/Griffin, which I've watched a couple oftimes now and just don't get. Anyway. B...

This one’s from Poland. She likes pop music so Brooke, with maybe a touch of narcissism, wonders what she thinks of Brooke Hogan.
