With fight week upon us once again, Dana White brings fans along as he prepares for UFC 123 in Auburn Hills, Michigan. Things pick up in Germany, as the successful Marquardt vs. Okami event comes to a close and White readies himself for the second consecutive card in so many weeks.
Its down to the semi finals with only 4 fighters remaining!
Fabricio Werdum recently stated that he’ll be looking for a “tune-up fight” before returning to the Strikeforce cage, against either Fedor Emelianenko or Alistair Overeem. And in light of Vadim Finkelstein’s constant statements about having a rematch against Fabricio Werdum as main priority for Fedor Emelianenko’s management, I decided to ask M-1 Global for a comment. According to Finkelstein’s response the situation did not change; however, Fedor might participate in a “tune-up fight” of his own. Here’s
With Shogun hurt and the divisions title at a gridlock, Rashad Evans is getting increasingly frustrated. He has already complained about Dana and the UFCs way of doing things and it seems he has more to say on the matter. In a interview with mmamania.com Evans said:
“Sometimes it seems to me like they’re not wanting me to fight for the belt. Maybe that could just be me being paranoid but I’m like okay, if that’s the case then just let me know, you know, and I won’t fight for the belt.
Strikeforce Heavyweight Champion Alistair ”The Demolition Man” Overeem has responded to Dana White’s recent comments about him, where Dana claimed that anyone who has Overeem in their top 10 is stupid. Overeem also said that Brock Lesnar shouldn’t even be considered in the top 5 in the Heavyweight division.

UFC front man’s tantrums good or bad for the sport?
With the recent confusion on wether or not Frank Mir and Brock Lesnar will fight for a third time there needs to be some options on the table. And it seems Ultimate Fighter 10 Runner up Brendan Schaub has stepped up to the plate and entered the mix.
Ready for a move up in the UFC Heavyweight division?task.”“Well let’s see. (Junior) Dos Santos beat Gabriel Gonzaga and he got a title shot. Shane Carwin beat (Gonzaga) him and got a title shot. I think Gabriel (Gonzaga) is one of those guys
“[Expletive] great guy. I like Overeem. I have nothing but respect for him. But it’s an absolute [expletive] joke that anybody would rank him in the top 10. And anybody that wants to debate with me, and tell me why Alistair should be ranked, [expletive] fire away. I’m ready. I want to hear it. Can’t wait. If on your rankings you have him in the top 10, you should be [expletive] embarrassed.I actually find it hilarious that he’s ranked in the top 10 by some of the websites. I find it hilarious. What has he
When I first heard about Dana White’s intentions to promote another Lesnar vs Mir match-up, I had some mixed emotions. At first, it looks like a great fight to promote. Brock Lesnar and Frank Mir will surely supply another memorable trash talk moments about how they hate each other, and eventually want to kill each other.
