If you missed UFC 185 last night then you missed some crazy MMA action. Not one, but two titles changed hands when Joanna Jedrzejczyk TKO’d Carla Esparza in the second round and Rafael dos Anjos dominated Anthony Pettis for five rounds, out-striking and out-grappling “Showtime”. Understandably, the MMA world was a buzz when the main […]

Fans and media alike labeled Rafael dos Anjos as the heavy underdog walking into UFC 185, and with good reason.

Even after the fight finished, Dana White still […]

Performance of the Night: Rafael dos Anjos Rafael dos Anjos did the unthinkable and absolutely dominated Anthony Pettis tonight.

For as brilliant as Joanna Jedrzejczyk’s striking was, Carla Esparza’s performance left a lot to be desired. She got picked apart throughout the entire fight and she didn’t set up ANY of her takedown attempts.

This bout was being hyped as the likely winner of “Fight of the Night” for “UFC 185” before the event started, but Hendricks threw Brown a curveball and wrestled his way to a victory. Hendricks landed a total of seven takedowns in the fight with six of them coming in just the first two rounds. […]

This was one of Alistair Overeem’s best performances in the octagon. It was a return to form and Roy Nelson was a punching bag he could showcase his arsenal of strikes on. Nelson nearly made a huge come from behind victory in the end of the fight, but Overeem proved his chin and made it […]

Chris Cariaso and Henry Cejudo kicked off “UFC 185” with a busy flyweight bout.

Roger Narvaez suffered a broken forearm in the opening round when he blocked one of Elias Theodorou’s high kicks. Theodorou was relentless in his attack and ultimately scored a second round win.

Despite having a rough weight cut, bookies still favored Daron Cruickshank as he entered the octagon tonight.

Dariush was brilliant in his approach as he cut off any and all of Cruickshank’s striking attempts. Whenever Cruickshank stepped […]

Jared Rosholt and Josh Copeland kicked off the FX portion of the “UFC 185” preliminaries with their heavyweight bout.

Rosholt slammed Copeland […]

Ryan Benoit made a HUGE come from behind victory when he knocked out Sergio Pettis in the second round. What should have been a huge moment for Benoit turned into an awkward post-fight speech.
