Despite my belief that season 10 of The Ultimate Fighter was a turd sandwich, there were several good reasons to tune in and watch the big finale.  Most notably was the fact that half of the fighters on the main card were not contestants on the show.  Both the lightweight and light heavyweight bouts were very intriguing and MMA fans were definitely going to be tuning in for Kimbo Slice’s UFC debut against Houston Alexander. The night opened with a bout between season 10 contestants Marcus “Big Baby” Jones and Matt Mitrione.  Mitrione didn’t earn many fans with his behavior…

One of the most effective ways to torch calories is through the wonderful cardiovascular exercise, cycling. Mountain, spinning, road, or indoor cycling is a very effective way to raise the metabolism and burn fat. It will burn many calories after a workout. Expect to burn around 250-300 calories every thirty minutes, dependent on weight, speed, and terrain. Regular cycling will build extremely strong calf, thigh, and buttock muscles. Legs will become lean, muscular, and shapely. The largest muscles in the body are activated during cycling and burn off a lot of calories, as well as dip into fat stores. Just…

In what was the most anticipated fights of the The Ultimate Finale 10, Kimbo Slice outlasted Houston Alexander to eek out a decision victory.  Yeah, that wasn’t a typo.  I’ll be completely honest with you, I did not see that result coming.  Here’s a couple excerpts from my twitter that I posted while the fight was happening… Worst and lamest start to a fight i’ve ever seen. Circle circle circle. So boring Un-****ing-believable how could they dance like that in the first round? I cannot ****ing believe that went the distance. Everyone and their grandmother thought this fight was going…

p>Despite what I thought about the 10th season of The Ultimate Fighter, I’m pretty excited for the finale of this show.  The boys at UFC matchmaking did the best they could with the talent they had and actually created some intriguing matchups. I will once again attempt to use my mediocre talent evaluation skills to predict the outcomes of tonight’s bouts.  Thus far, after UFC 106, I have a 3-4 record. Marcus “Big Baby” Jones vs Matt Mitrione:  This is a matchup that I wouldn’t have cared about until the season finale this past Wednesday.  Jones, usually the sensitive, quiet…

Who WOULD win in a fight between the Saints and Colts? I don’t mean to discount other teams that are playing very well (namely the Bengals and the Vikings) but all indications would point to a New Orleans/Indy Super Bowl that will be played outside in sunny South Florida (on my birthday no less.) Just imagine the scene with Peyton Manning and Drew Brees taking turns slinging the ball all over the place. Each team running because it looks good to have balance but only running so they can just throw the ball more. Each team’s defense standing back in…

If you are a big MMA fan like me, season 10 of The Ultimate Fighter was one of the most anticipated seasons yet. It seemed like this could be the season that finally surpasses season 1 or 5 as the best ever. We had some former UFC fighters getting a second chance, four former NFL players, an IFL heavyweight champion, some undefeated prospects, an MMA celebrity in Kimbo Slice and most of all: a great coaching matchup between Rampage Jackson and Rashad Evans. Sadly, nearly everything I was looking forward to backfired or flamed out quickly. And despite a decent…

We were already forced to bear witness to Quinton “Rampage” Jackson’s shocking retirement announcement just over two months ago.  Now, with his latest blog entry, it appears he’s ready to come back and finish out his UFC contract. Now, I wanted to let my fans know that I’m going to come back to the UFC & finish my contract. Not because the haters are talking shit about me being scared of Rashad or Titties or anybody else. I’m coming back for my fans & to shut Rashad’s mouth up & shut Dana’s mouth up. Then after that I’m going back…

Each of us has a six-pack. The only way the actual six-pack can be seen is if the fat percentage of the body is reduced. The stronger the abdominals are the stronger the internal muscles and back. The abdominals are used for almost every move. The core muscles, including the abdominals are required for strength and can also help to develop power in particular sports such as football. Whenever weight training is performed, the core muscles contract to stabilise the body. A stability ball is a great way to strengthen the core muscles because retaining posture on the stability ball…

The Florida State garnet and black tomahawk has axed the coaching career of Bobby Bowden. The scalping of the second highest ranked winning head coach in college football history, will be the beginning of a brand-new era in football at Florida State University. During an interview by the media, Bowden made these sincere remarks…. “Nothing lasts forever…does it? But, I’ve had some wonderful years and no regrets. There are so many great players. I can’t name them all. We did win our share. We didn’t win them all!” Bowden’s replacement will be Jimbo Fisher, who was chosen after the 2007…
