If you’re ever hungry in Columbus, Ohio, you can get a piece of Luke Zachrich ‘s life’s work – when he’s not at his other job. During a long injury layoff, Zachrich got into the family business, managing a pair of Mellow Mushroom Pizza Bakers restaurants as he recovered. Now back in the cage, Zachrich (14-3 MMA, 1-1 UFC), a veteran of “The Ultimate Fighter 7,” gets to run the shop remotely while he continues his career in the octagon. “I can do everything by email,” he told MMAjunkie Radio. Next month, he’ll be telecommuting again when he meets Daniel Kelly (7-0 MMA, 0-0 UFC), a veteran of “TUF: Nations,” at UFC Fight Night 55 on Nov.

BAD MMA News — Tue, 08 Jul 2014 20:20:30 +0000

The UFC’s annual “International Fight Week” came to an end on Sunday evening with The Ultimate Fighter 19 Finale from Las Vegas’ Mandalay Bay Events Center. It was a solid event headlined by a matchup between former UFC champions Frankie Edgar (17-4-1 MMA, 11-4-1 UFC) and B.J. Penn (16-10-2 MMA, 12-9-2 UFC), who were fighting for the third time. It wasn’t much of a fight, though, as Edgar steamrolled Penn for two rounds before stopping the fight in the third frame. Prior to that, two new winners of “The Ultimate Fighter” reality series were crowned as Corey Anderson (3-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC) and Eddie Gordon (7-1 MMA, 1-0 UFC) both smashed their opponents in roughly one minute to score six-figure UFC contracts

Filed under: News , UFC , Videos Luke Zachrich finally has a UFC victory to his name, and now his decision to continue a career in MMA is validated. The 32-year-old considered leaving the sport after never receiving a chance to fight for the UFC following a stint on “The Ultimate Fighter 7” in 2008. He continued to compete for several years afterward, but before receiving an opportunity to step in the octagon on just 11 days’ notice this past April, he was on the verge of changing sports and testing his luck in boxing. “It has been a very, very long hard road – I’ve been doing this for almost 10 years,” Zachrich told MMAjunkie.
