2024 was once again the year of the Birmingham Stallions, with yet another well-rounded season, an MVP award for Adrian Martinez, and their third-straight Spring Football championship. However, some of the other stories, both good and bad, were almost equally as captivating. There is always the discussion of financial concerns and potential expansion, but we […]

There's nothing like a weird rematch to headline a UFC Vegas card the week after a big-time PPV. Though there has been a lot of talk about the quality of this card: 1) it always seems to be those cards that generate some of the best entertainment, 2) I will always prefer fights to no... […]

Now, here is one we've all been waiting for. It will be very difficult for this PPV event to not deliver. The opportunity to finally deliver for Magomed Ankalaev and the opportunity to exponentially grow his legacy and silence all talks of ducking for Alex Pereira. Even though it isn't the original Justin Gaethje matchup... […]

Typically, I am not one for belly-aching over the weekend's slate, but this has to be the most generous application of the term "co-main event" in recent memory. Even still -- take note of the featured image for the article this week. If you had told me that I'd be advocating for Cody Brundage and against... […]

When it rains, it pours -- and this week, it has been pouring fight cancellations and last-second opportunities for UFC Seattle. With a UFC event in Seattle, I have to work in as many Seattle puns and references as possible. There have been seven cancellations/rearrangements to be exact. So, the likes of Nick Klein, Julius...

They could've gone old school with this card and named it "UFC Vegas 102: The Crossroads." We have elder statesmen taking on up-and-comers, debuts being made against seasoned veterans, and certainly several last-chance matchups. As far as young talent and fun, familiar names go -- the UFC could be offering something worse for a card... […]

The MMA fans of the great land of Australia are getting treated to ... a questionable slate of fights for a big pay-per-view event. They could've had a ton of big names on this card in front of the Aussie faithful, but it is going to be a lot of up-and-comers of varying magnitude to... […]

Back from another one-week UFC break with a banging card taking place for most of us bright and early on Saturday morning from Saudi Arabia -- this is a card where you will be trying your best to squeeze in as many fighters as possible in the $8.6K-$9.2K range, so I had to bend my... […]

The first PPV of 2025 is an absolute banger -- with even several non-title fights causing me to lose sleep from anticipation this week. Inglewood will be playing host to two extremely competitive championship matchups and a handful of others that have a high-leverage impact on title shots and the UFC rankings. Some of my... […]

Welcome to UFC 2025, as we are kicking the year off with one of the most UFC Apexish cards ever. It is a very curious way to start the year for the UFC, as there is not much high-level or ranked action to speak of. That distinction is solely reserved for the main event on... […]

Here we are -- the final UFC event of 2024, and it is a pickle wrapped in a riddle. This has been a year dominated by a handful of key storylines, controversial takes, a few heroic champions, and some wild judging that has cost me (and let's be honest --benefited me) on many occasions. Thankfully,... […]

So many fun fights, so many expensive hitters, and so many tempting underdogs. To name a few dogs that I put serious consideration into but didn't make the cut: Ian Machado Garry, Alexander Volkov, Vicente Luque, Cody Durden, and Chris Weidman. Not that I didn't use these guys in some lineups and that I don't... […]
