Powerful, but a little misunderstood: UFC matchmakers Joe Silva and Sean Shelby

BAD MMA News — Tue, 20 Aug 2013 17:30:00 +0000

At first I thought the UFC matchmakers were just being paranoid. As soon as they showed up for their USA TODAY photo shoot in the bowels of Winnipeg’s MTS Centre before UFC 161 in June, Zuffa executives Joe Silva and Sean Shelby couldn’t stop joking – half-seriously, it seemed – about the possibility that this was all an elaborate setup.

Dan Henderson withdrew TUE request, discontinued TRT ahead of UFC 161

BAD MMA News — Fri, 19 Jul 2013 00:00:00 +0000

When the Manitoba Combative Sports Commission recently revealed it didn’t grant any therapeutic-use exemptions for June’s UFC 161 event, it raised more than a few eyebrows. After all, shouldn’t have MMA legend Dan Henderson ‘s name appeared on the list? Henderson (29-9 MMA, 6-3 UFC), who has been granted exemptions (TUEs) for his use of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) since 2007, said there’s a simple explanation for why he didn’t receive an exemption for the event: He pulled his application when it seemed the Manitoba commission wasn’t likely to approve it. “It didn’t look like they would approve it, so I just quit taking the testosterone,” Henderson told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). “I stopped about six to eight weeks out. I was told by my doctor that wouldn’t be a problem at all. I wasn’t using that much, anyway.” Henderson fought in the main event of UFC 161, which took place June 15 in Winnipeg.

For James Krause, two bonuses, one drug test, $100K and a lot of paranoia

BAD MMA News — Wed, 17 Jul 2013 06:00:00 +0000

In the month since his submission victory over Sam Stout at UFC 161 in Winnipeg, James Krause has had plenty of time to think about what substances may or may not have been floating around his system. “You just start thinking about everything,” Krause told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). “Every little thing runs through your mind, like, ‘What did I have, what did I eat?’” And yeah, that’s about what it feels like when you have a very important drug test to pass. Even when you know you haven’t used any banned substances – even when you are absolutely sure that there’s no valid reason why your test shouldn’t come back clean – it’s hard not to stress about it when there’s $100,000 on the line, as there was for Krause after he netted dual $50,000 bonuses for “Fight of the Night” and “Submission of the Night” at UFC 161 on June 15.

UFC 161 drug tests come back clean, no TUEs issued

BAD MMA News — Tue, 16 Jul 2013 20:15:00 +0000

All fighters who underwent drug testing at this past month’s UFC 161 event successfully passed their tests. MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) confirmed the results with Marc Ratner, the UFC’s senior vice president of government and regulatory affairs. The Manitoba Combative Sports Commission oversaw the testing. UFC 161 took place June 15 at Winnipeg’s MTS Centre, and Rashad Evans took a split decision from fellow light heavyweight Dan Henderson in the pay-per-view main event.

T.J. Grant ready to go to war for five rounds with Benson Henderson at UFC 164

BAD MMA News — Thu, 27 Jun 2013 21:30:00 +0000

T.J. Grant had no idea yet that there was even a remote possibility his lightweight title fight might be in jeopardy. He found out from a fan while taking questions from fans at a Q&A session prior to the weigh-ins for UFC 161 nearly two weeks ago in Winnipeg that Anthony Pettis (16-2 MMA, 3-1 UFC) had pulled out of his featherweight title fight against Jose Aldo (22-1 MMA, 4-0 UFC) with an injury. It wasn’t until later that he found out that Pettis was suggesting he could take the place of Grant (21-5 MMA, 8-3 UFC) at UFC 164 in August against Benson Henderson (19-2 MMA, 7-0 UFC). That never came to fruition – but it still set Grant off a little bit, telling ESPN U.K. that Pettis lobbying to move past Grant into the title fight on his hometown card was “low class” and “dirty.” UFC 164 takes place Aug

Women’s MMA Report: Alexis Davis wins UFC debut, Megumi Fujii set to retire

BAD MMA News — Wed, 26 Jun 2013 02:30:00 +0000

Highly touted Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt Alexis “Ally-Gator” Davis made a successful UFC debut earlier this month, but her victory didn’t come as easily as some had predicted. Davis narrowly outpointed Rosi “The Surgeon” Sexton in a main-card bout at UFC 161, which took place June 15 in Winnipeg. Davis (14-5 MMA, 1-0 UFC) got off to a strong start in Round 1 and landed some nice knees in the clinch. Sexton (13-3 MMA, 0-1 UFC) reversed a takedown and wound up in Davis’ guard. Davis trapped the British veteran in a tight triangle choke, but Sexton refused to submit and landed some hard right hands in the final minute. Sexton secured a takedown in the second round and landed ground and pound until Davis kicked off of the cage and took top position
