Ex-champ Junior Dos Santos: I’m the guy to take the belt from champ Stipe Miocic

BAD MMA News — Thu, 15 Sep 2016 21:26:32 +0000

Filed under: Featured Videos , News , UFC , Videos You could see why former UFC heavyweight champ Junior Dos Santos is confident about his chances in a fight with current title holder Stipe Miocic . “The champion is doing very well, and I really believe I am the guy to take that belt from him,” he told MMAjunkie in a recent interview. “Nobody will take that belt from him.” Why wouldn’t Dos Santos (18-4 MMA, 12-3 UFC) feel that way, though? He’s the last guy to hand Miocic (16-2 MMA, 10-2 UFC) a loss.

UFC 203 ‘Thrill and Agony’ video: Here’s what CM Punk said to Mickey Gall right after their fight

BAD MMA News — Thu, 15 Sep 2016 11:27:47 +0000

Filed under: Featured , News , UFC , Videos Sure, he got his ass kicked, but following UFC 203, Phil “ CM Punk ” Brooks wasn’t sulking. Not immediately, anyway. Instead, he had some words of encouragement for the man who just delivered the ass-kicking. In the latest installment of the “Thrill and Agony” video series, the cameras and mics catch the conversation between welterweight Mickey Gall (3-0 MMA, 2-0 UFC) and former WWE star and UFC/MMA newcomer Punk (0-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC), who suffered a beating before eventually tapping out in the first round of their main-card bout. Punk uses the moment to tell Gall – who previously said he didn’t really deserve to be on the UFC 203 fight poster – to believe himself and not put himself down.

BAD MMA News — Wed, 14 Sep 2016 12:48:28 +0000

Filed under: News , UFC , Videos Check out all the slow-motion highlights from Saturday’s action-packed ( and sometimes-weird ) UFC 203 pay-per-view event. The event, which took place at Quicken Loans Arena, marked the organization’s debut in Cleveland. In the above “Fight Motion” video, we can take a look at the fight-opening kick that former heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum (21-6-1 MMA, 9-3 UFC) threw – and connected on – to jumpstart his eventual unanimous-decision win over Travis Browne (18-5-1 MMA, 9-5-1 UFC). You can also see the takedown that welterweight Mickey Gall (3-0 MMA, 2-0 UFC) used early in a fight to doom the UFC debut of Phil “ CM Punk ” Brooks (0-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC). And, of course, there are some highlights of heavyweight champ Stipe Miocic ’s (16-2 MMA, 10-2 UFC) knockout win over fellow headliner Alistair Overeem (41-15 MMA, 6-4 UFC). Check it all out above.

If the UFC’s CM Punk experiment ends here, what does that say about it?

BAD MMA News — Tue, 13 Sep 2016 20:02:19 +0000

Filed under: Featured , News , UFC So it turns out that Phil “ CM Punk ” Brooks is not only one of the worst fighters to ever debut in the UFC, he’s also one of the highest paid. This isn’t exactly surprising news, but it’s still stubbornly affecting. If you looked around the MMA Twitterverse after news of disclosed payouts from UFC 203 emerged on Monday, you saw plenty of fighters feeling some kind of way about those numbers. The former pro wrestler with zero fights to his credit made half a million bucks just for showing up, and that doesn’t even factor in rumors of points on Saturday’s pay-per-view broadcast from Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland. Was it more than he deserved? Depends what you think that word means
