Here’s a funny clip of Bruce Buffer, also known as the “Veteran Voice of the Octagon”, dancing to Wanderlei Silva’s entrance song at UFC 110.

To many, Silva provides some of the best songs when entering the Octagon during his UFC fights.

Australian Press Not Pleased With Bloody Battles At UFC 110 In Sydney

February 22, 2010 by admin  
Filed under MMA News, UFC And MMA News, UFC News

Share

The Australian press was not too happy with the bloody and gruesome wars that went on at this past Saturday’s UFC 110 event.  The back to back TKO doctor stoppages  resulted into a pool of blood on Australia’s ONE’s tv channel that features nonstop sport content including live sport and sports documentaries.

Anthony Perosh squirted so much blood after a devastating elbow shot from Mirko Cro Cop.  They were allowed to continue fighting despite the large cut above Perosh’s right eye, but it was eventually stopped for a second and final time immediately after the second round.

The  Stephan Bonnar vs. Krzysztof Soszynski was fairly close throughout the first two rounds of the fight with Soszynski landing slightly more strikes.  However, one can never underestimate Bonnar’s huge heart every single time he’s in the cage.

We read a highly criticized article on The Sydney Morning Herald where they state how “the fastest growing sport” of mixed martial arts was not impressive as they thought it would be.

Here’s the article:

‘Smell the blood!’ The sickening roar for gore:

AFTERNOON at the Acer Arena. The shaft of light from the heavens cleaves the darkness and reveals the sole focus of everyone’s rapt attention. In an octagonal, caged enclosure, two men are hitting each other in the face, kicking each other in the head and furiously kneeing each other in the stomach.

Every blow, and its gory results, is blown up large on six enormous screens around the stadium as the sold-out 17,000-strong crowd, which includes James Packer sitting in a front-row seat, roars for more gore.

And more gore they get.
Now, one fighter, Stephan “the American Psycho” Bonnar, has started to bleed badly from a cut beneath his right eye, delighting his opponent’s trainer.

“Smell the blood, baby!” he screams at his man, Krzysztof “the Polish Experiment” Soszynski. “Smell the blood!”

Within seconds Soszynski doesn’t have to sniff too hard because, after a clash of heads, the blood from a new gash high on Bonnar’s forehead is so deep that his red essence is gushing out of him and soon both fighters are covered in it from top to toe. This appears to interest the referee mildly, but no more than that. Still they go at it, and when Bonnar briefly goes down, the ref has to jump out of the way so that Soszynski can properly get at him, and bash him some more.

Welcome to something called the Ultimate Fighting Championship which, as well as claiming to be the world’s fastest-growing sport, made its debut in Australia yesterday on a schedule suited to the American pay-per-view prime-time Saturday night audience.

A cross between Fight Club, rock’n'roll, a vicious bar-room brawl and the fall of Saigon, the idea is that this is “multi-discipline fighting” – across three five-minute rounds – incorporating everything from boxing to wrestling, kick-boxing to karate, judo to jujitsu to just about anything else you can think of, including choke holds, and …

But now the blood pouring out of Bonnar’s head is so copious the ring floor is slippery and even the referee thinks it’s time to call the doctor. This worthy man checks Bonnar and ruefully shakes his head. The fight must be stopped.

BOO! BOOOO! BOOOOOO! Though we in the crowd feel badly let down and roar our extreme displeasure, the fact is there really are some rules – even if they owe less to the Marquis of Queensberry and more to the Marquis de Sade. It’s not quite “anything goes”. To be sure, the organisers of this $US250 million ($278 million) a year business are proud of the fact that the championship has cleaned itself up from its really wild days in Las Vegas in the early 1990s and has gone as far as to ban biting, eye-gouging and attacks to an opponent’s groin. The fighters even have to wear light gloves, so they’re not quite bare-knuckled.

And so the afternoon goes on, with nine vicious bouts and much blood spilt. About 30 police watch as the fighters continue to bash each other to a pulp. If it were to happen 100 metres away, on the street, those same police would have to arrest them for grievous bodily harm – though they’d take the precaution of calling for back-up first.

This is as far from professional wrestling’s tightly choreographed theatrical fighting. These are deadly serious contests fought by highly skilled men. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea – and it will be the last bout I’ll attend – but it looks like we might have moved into an age when tens of thousands of people no longer want cups of tea. They want buckets of blood.

Velasquez Excited With Win Over Nogueira, Looking Forward To Fighting For UFC Title

February 22, 2010 by admin  
Filed under UFC And MMA News, UFC News

Share

UFC’s undefeated heavyweight fighter Cain Velasquez continues to finish every single opponent that has been handed to him by Joe Silva.  Velasquez proves once again how much of a threat he is in the UFC heavyweight division.

The Mexican-American MMA fighter could be next in line for a shot at the title, but UFC President Dana White announced during the UFC 110 post-fight press conference that it will all depend on the outcome of the Frank Mir vs. Shane Carwin bout.  Mir vs. Carwin is already scheduled for UFC 111 on March 27th at the Prudential Center in New Jersey.

From Cain Velasquez:

“When I threw that right hand, it just went through him…That’s all I felt. There was really no give. I just tried to follow it up with that left hook, and I saw him go down. I tried to capitalize on it. I tried not to get too anxious in there because I know he can take a lot of punishment and come back….I just have to fight a smart fight…Definitely, with those kind of guys – big, strong – you really have to be aware of their power. I think it’s always going to be a war, and you have to really fight until the end. You’ve got to really tire them out, but that’s easier said than done. But that’s how I see me going up against them is really trying to get them tired and edge out the win at the end.”

From Dana White:

“We’ll see what happens with Mir and Carwin – see who wins that – and if the guys come out unscathed, they’ll fight for the title…If not, then Cain Velasquez will get that slot…[Regarding Velasquez's knockout punch over Nogueira] I didn’t see it coming.  I thought that was going to be a back-and-forth and entertaining fight, and Cain Velasquez went out and absolutely finished him and looked completely dominant and looked, in my opinion, better than he’s ever looked. The kid gets better every time he fights.”

Cro Cop Satisfied With Win Over Perosh, Prepared To Fight Rothwell Next

February 22, 2010 by admin  
Filed under UFC And MMA News, UFC News

Share

UFC President Dana White announced during the UFC 110 post-fight press conference that Mirko Cro Cop would most likely face Ben Rothwell next, as it was originally scheduled.  Rothwell canceled his fight against Cro Cop 2 days prior to the UFC 110 event due to a severe stomach virus he was suffering.  Anthony Perosh stepped in as a late replacement, but Cro Cop was obviously more prepared  for the bout.  The Croatian sensation took home his first victory since his controversial win over Mostapha Al-Turk back in June of 2009 at UFC 99.

From Mirko Cro cop:

“I can say I was satisfied with my performance…I didn’t fight my original opponent. He canceled the fight. Perosh jumped in, and I’m grateful to him for that. He showed great courage and guts. He came to fight…but where I’m at in the heavyweight division, I don’t know. I believe I belong in the top, so we’ll see in the next fights. It depends on the next fight…I changed the way I used to train…I spent four weeks in Amsterdam at Vos Gym training with a new coach, Ivan Hippolyte, a legend of Muay Thai. And this was the first time in my career I came (to the location of the fight) two weeks before (the fight) to adapt. I always underestimate so many things…I’m a very experienced fighter, but even in Japan I came two days before. In my last fight in the States, I came two days before. They needed to wake me up before the fight. My coach needed to put ice on my back to wake me up. So I just underestimate so many things. Of course there is fuel left in me, but you need to keep training more to keep in the game….Young lions are definitely coming, the division is harder than ever.”

From Dana White:

“I think what we do is we do the fight that was supposed to happen tonight…We’ll make that fight happen, and obviously Mirko didn’t have a rough night tonight…Ben (Rothwell) isn’t out because he’s injured or anything. He got a stomach virus, so hopefully we can make this fight quick and put this one together soon…Ring rust is a real thing, and he got to get in there and at least work on his timing and everything else…Hopefully, we can back-to-back make this fight with Rothwell now and make it happen pretty soon – get him back in there and keep him active and busy.”
