The month of November marks the anniversary of the UFC’s Denver, CO debut back in 1993. On that fateful night, an event that was at the time regarded as a brutal spectacle more than a true sport launched something that would grow into much more. Royce Gracie dominated those early events (although ultimately not the first), but now fighters have evolved into something altogether well-rounded. MMA is a worldwide phenomenon, with UFC events popping up all over the world as they continue to expand in rapid
Before Jon Jones accepted, Quinton “Rampage” Jackson was offered the TUF 17 job opposite Chael Sonnen but turned it down.
Quinton “Rampage” Jackson says that UFC matchmaker Joe Silva is the reason why he plans on becoming a free agent.
It appears that, with his time in the limelight seemingly winding down, Quinton “Rampage’ Jackson has taken great offense to the man who has taken his spot as the trash-talking king, Chael P. Sonnen. Forced out of his bout with Glover Teixeira at UFC 153, Jackson has since campaigned to make that fight happen once again. However, many are doubting if Rampage can return to the once high level he competed at for several years, and Teixeira is a man with momentum on his side. Rampage appeared on
After being forced to withdraw from his scheduled UFC 153 bout with surging prospect Glover Teixeira, Quinton “Rampage” Jackson has taken to Twitter to reiterate his desire to face Teixeira.

In a series of post-fight interviews courtesy of FuelTV.com, UFC Middleweight champion Anderson Silva describes his brutal performance in destroying Stephan Bonnar last night. Noting that his coaches wanted him to switch positons to avoid the wrestling of Bonnar, Silva told them to calm down, because he is a Jedi. With his UFC win streak at an unbelievable 16 fights, Silva touched on the topic of his oft-discussed superfight with Georges St. Pierre, who faces Carlos Condit next month in Montreal.

UFC Light Heavyweight Stephan Bonnar is no stranger to the limelight, having been one half of the fight versus Forrest Griffin that put modern MMA on the map in 2005. However, his next battle will be in the limelight of an entirely different sort. There, he will fight Anderson Silva at 205 lbs., in the long-standing Middleweight champion’s home country of Brazil. While absolutely no one is giving Bonnar a fair shake to win this fight, he insists that it is this exact reason why he is extremely excited for
(Seriously? Not even *one* vote for Jason Guida?) The 16th season of The Ultimate Fighter kicks off tonight on FX, and…
Breaking news comes tonight as UFC Middleweight champion Anderson Silva is willing to step up and save an event for his company by facing Stephan Bonnar in the main event at UFC 153. After yesterday’s news came that both Featherweight champ and Light Heavyweight Quinton Jackson would be unable to fight due to injury, 145 lb. title challenger Frankie Edgar was ultimately pulled off the card altogether. Rumors swirled earlier today that perhaps Chael Sonnen would face Wanderlei Silva in the event’s main
