Last weekend’s decision right, UFC Fight Night 36 event went off without a hitch. The card, which featured a main event between Lyoto Machida and Gegard Mousasi was supposed to crown the next middleweight title challenger, although now, with his nasty foot injury, things may be put off for a bit. The Brazilian Athletic Commission […]

According to Machida, in the third round of his UFC Fight Night 36 bout against Gegard Mousasi, he injured his foot pretty bad. According to the docs it isn’t broken, but it’s hard to imagine it being an worse. Geeze! Here’s the tweet that got us the pic: Machida's foot not looking good … no […]

“Everybody keeps talking about the title. Of course, I want to fight for the title and I did my best on Saturday night (to earn a shot), but it’s up to the UFC now to decide if I deserve it or not. I’ll be ready for anything. If they want me to fight once more […]

They call several fighters in the UFC ‘elusive’. A fighter’s ability to hit and not get hit, especially in the UFC, is a measure of success and sign of greatness. Last weekend at UFC Fight Night 36, top Brazilian prospect Erick Silva, etched his way into the record books in his fight against Takenori Sato. […]

Lyoto Machida won two battles last Saturday night on FOX Sports 1. Not only did the former UFC light-heavyweight champion take on and defeat one of his toughest opponents to date in Gegard Mousasi, he also successfully regained his hat during his Fight Night 36 walk-out. This rarely happens. Check it: (Footage comes via Saturday’s […]

Opening last weekend’s UFC Fight Night 36 main card action was a featherweight bout between Andy Ogle and Charles Oliveira. Though the Brazilian won via submission in round 3, he still accused his British opponent of greasing in their bout. Ogle took to his Facebook page to refute those allegations: “So charles says he thought […]

“I didn’t have trouble (in the fight) because of the injury. I have bone fragments in my left arm and I almost pulled out of the fight, but I asked the UFC to continue. I asked my doctors if I could fight and they said there was a high possibility that I could fight. I […]

“I don’t know what happened. I did some kicking and he defended with his knee. I don’t know if I broke my foot. I didn’t think about my foot during the fight, I just tried to keep my focus on the fight. He’s a tough opponent. But he kept his hand down. I saw I […]

Rhythm always helps, but I felt good in the fight. I don’t think [ring rust played a factor]. He was always a step ahead. I just couldn’t get started. I don’t know about the scoring. Maybe I had one round, maybe two…” Following his unanimous decision loss to Lyoto Machida last weekend, Gegard Mousasi told […]

Lyoto Machida and Gegard Mousasi’s fight in the main-event may not have lived up to expectations, but the striking was impressive nonetheless. Lyoto Machida took control of the first three rounds with his elite striking skills. While Mousasi did control the center of the octagon, Machida nullified that by bum-rushing Mousasi with punches and knees. […]

The ground game of Jacare Souza won him the decision victory. Francis Carmont got taken down early on in the first round and it all looked to be going downhill for him from there. Souza transitioned right to back control and locked in a body triangle. Carmont defended the rear naked choke for nearly five […]

Erick Silva brought the crowd back to life after this performance. Silva landed a body shot that forced Takenori Sato to clutch on a leg, praying for a takedown. Silva stayed standing and delivered a handful of shots to the head and body of Sato. Sato continued to hold on to the leg of his […]

Andrade dropped Musoke with a giant right hand late in the first round and celebrated prematurely. Musoke was still awake and the referee did not stop the fight. Andrade dove in and went for a finish, but he could not wrap things up. Musoke actually almost locked him up in a triangle, as a matter […]

Charles Oliveira was looking to make his tenth octagon appearance a special one by locking up a win early on tonight. He opened up with a strong performance, landing a takedown in the opening minute. He transitioned to mount right away and took the back of Ogle and started working for a rear naked choke. […]

Seventh decision in a row. This may have been the most competitive fight on the preliminary card, but that’s not saying much. Joe Proctor went for a guillotine choke twice in the first round and Marcello was able to escape twice. Marcello tried to answer with a submission of his own and almost forced Proctor […]

Lucky for the UFC, they haven’t charged anyone for UFC Fight Pass yet so fans cannot complain about wasting their money on a sixth straight decision. The fight had a slow pace and was even until Damm and Jorge exchanged eye pokes in the second round. The traded eye pokes seemed to had upset both […]

Jesse Ronson did a decent job at controlling where the action went throughout the first round, but Trinaldo was the one who was dishing out the offense and landing significant strikes. Ronson absorbed some damage in the first, but he was able to make it back to his stool when the horn sounded. The action […]

Iuri Alcantara is coming fresh off a loss against UFC Bantamweight star Urijah Faber. The fight took place in August 2013 and Alcantra lost by way of unanimous decision. Wilson Reis, on the other hand, won his last fight at UFC 165 in New Jersey. He defeated Ivan Menjivar by way of unanimous decision in […]

Felipe Arantes and Maximo Blanco put on a heart-felt display in the third bout of the night. Both Arantes and Blanco showed no restraint in throwing dangerous strikes. Arantes allowed Maximo to control the octagon, but he was aggressive in his counters. He ate strikes to dish them out, and it paid off at the […]

The first round between Alcantara and Tumenov was extremely close. It looked like Tumenov was running away with the fight after he was pounding his fists into the face of Alcantara, but Alcantara displayed amazing jiu-jitsu defense and got back to his feet where he started to take control of the fight. He secured a […]

Silva de Andrade and Zubair Tuhugov had the honors of kicking off this evening’s action in the octagon. After an even first round, Tuhugov started to take control of the action.
