The California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) has suspended the license of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) fighter Chael Sonnen, after Sonnen tested positive for steroids, a banned substance.

A sample from Sonnen's August 6 drug test came back with a high T/E (testosterone-to-estrogen) level, which is indicative of anaboloic steroid use. CSAC learned of the results September 2 and ordered a second test, which also came back positive for steroid use. CSAC received test results from the second sample on September 14 and suspended Sonnen two days later. He is suspended for one year. Sonnen has 30 days to appeal the decision.

"The use of anabolic steroids and other banned substances are not tolerated by the commission," said CSAC Executive Officer George Dodd. "Anabolic agents put the health and safety of both the user and his opponents at risk."

Sonnen's test was observed in the presence of a CSAC representative and the sample was sent to the World Anti-doping Agency test facility at the University of California, Los Angeles on August 6, 2010 for processing.

MMA Fighting contacted the CSAC with follow-up questions regarding the findings on Sonnen's testosterone-to-estrogen level, but a commission representative declined to immediately answer, saying the commission was still waiting to get confirmation from their lawyers about releasing that more specific information.

According to the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), a T/E ratio of greater than 4-to-1 indicates steroid use. CSAC testing is done through the UCLA Olympic Analytical Lab, a WADA-accredited facility.

Meanwhile, Sonnen's manager Mike Roberts confirmed to MMA Fighting yesterday that Sonnen will appeal the findings. Sonnen is expected to make his first public statements about the issue on Thursday's edition of ESPN's MMA Live.

Chael Sonnen will appeal a one-year suspension and $2,500 fine issued by the California State Athletic Commission for a failed drug test in the wake of his submission loss to Anderson Silva at UFC 117.

Mike Roberts, Sonnen's manager, today confirmed the news with MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com).

"There's not much else I can say at this point," Roberts said.

Roberts did, however, refer MMAjunkie.com to a statement issued to MMAFighting.com that further detailed the Sonnen camp's initial response to the CSAC ruling, which was delivered this past Friday after the 33-year-old middleweight tested positive for abnormally elevated levels of testosterone.

"It is our policy not to comment on pending actions by the athletic commission," Roberts stated. "Chael is consulting with his legal [advisers] and physicians and will have a statement in the near future. Chael will file an appeal with the CSAC and looks forward to working with the commission to resolve this matter."

CSAC Executive Director George Dodd on Monday told MMAjunkie.com that Sonnen has 30 days from the day he received the notice to appeal his suspension and fine. Should he choose not to contest the ruling, he will be suspended until Sept. 2, 2011, and will face a $2,500 fine.

According to Dodd, Sonnen was flagged first on Sept. 2 after an initial test revealed the presence of a performance-enhancer. A second, more-rigorous test conducted at the UCLA's Olympic Analytical Laboratory confirmed the results. The laboratory is used by the U.S. Olympic Committee and is the world's largest World Anti-Doping Agency-certified facility.

Sonnen can have his appeal heard as early as Dec. 2, when the CSAC holds its next meeting in Sacramento, Calif. Dodd stressed that time is of the essence should a planned rematch between Sonnen and Silva take place next year during Super Bowl weekend.

"We always say you want to make [the appeal] at the next commission meeting (from the notice)," Dodd said. "The next [meeting] after that probably won't be until the following year, and from what I understand, he has a rematch with Anderson Silva possibly in February. He'll probably be maintaining the suspension unless he gets on the agenda next time."

Sonnen delivered a nearly note-perfect performance at UFC 117 and dominated Silva for four-plus rounds before falling prey to a Hail Mary triangle choke from the champion in the final moments of the fifth and final round. After much speculation as to both fighters' next move, Sonnen was earmarked for a rematch in early 2011.

The fighter has yet to break his silence since news of the suspension broke.

Ik snap blijkbaar geen fuck van MMA want vond bijna geen enkele decision terecht

SPOILER

Wat ik me nu echt afvraag, volgens Crocop's eigen zeggen krijgt hij een echt megazware K-1 niveau training van Ivan Hippolyte (die ook Remy Bonjasky trainde). WTF zien we daarvan terug in z'n Frank Mir partij? 3 kicks ofzo? Geen combinaties maar steeds single punches. Wat drillen ze tijdens de training en waarom zien we daar helemaal niets van terug in de partij?

Of is hij zo bang voor de takedown dat hij puur daarop verdedigt en alleen jab/lowkicks zonder followup durft uit te delen?

Ok, hij is daar doodsbang voor, dan kan hij toch altijd wel een een-tweetje doen (rechterjab, links)? Relatief weinig risico's voor takedown ivm een kick. En de paar keer dat Crocop erdoorheen komt gelijk een lowkick erachteraan. Na 5 van die combinaties met lowkick op het eind blockt Frank de 6e keer automatisch laag en komt hij met een highkick. Zo deed hij het altijd al in Pride maar nu durft hij niet meer en krijgen we single jab, single kick acties.

Dit was echt ik-durf-geen-risico's-te-nemen-en-ga-voor-de-decision Crocop.
Totaal geen killerinstinct meer. Zo'n figuur hoort niet in de UFC thuis.

SPOILER

In de prelim video zie je een pre-fight interview met Frank Mir waar hij z'n strategie uitlegt:
"the key tactic to winning this fight? Moving forward. Jam him up. Zo dichtbij Crocop staan dat hij geen kicks kan uitdelen". "I rather be hit by his hands than his kicks"

Nou, dat heeft hij wel laten zien idd.

Mir heeft een uitstekende tactiek van Crocop's sterke punten neutraliseren, gewoon tegen hem aan plakken en tegen het hek drukken zodat die z'n benen niet kan gebruiken en met takedown attempts hem bezig houden. Alleen jammer dat het een ongelovelijk saaie partij oplevert.

Waar ze natuurlijk allebei schuld aan hebben. De een durft geen risico's te nemen uit angst voor takedowns, de ander blijft plakken aan de tegenstander uit angst voor de kicks

SPOILER

Gehypte cards hebben meestal de mindere gevechten... Wellicht dat 121 toch heel leuk kan worden!

Ik ben binnenkort bij Vos Gym, als ik Ivan tegenkom ga ik hem vragen waar ze op getrained hebben want ik zie naast de single jab en de welgeteld 3 lowkicks en een gemiste highkick weinig standup skills terug in de partij. Waar is bijvoorbeeld de right, left, lowkick combinatie gebleven?

Though their 15-minute barnburner ended in a controversial split decision, former UFC lightweight champion Sean Sherk and the man he defeated, world-ranked Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt Evan Dunham, banked matching $70,000 “Fight of the Night” bonuses in wake of UFC 119 “Mir vs. Cro Cop” on Saturday at the Conseco Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.

In his first appearance in more than a year, Sherk claimed a split nod from the judges against the previously unbeaten Dunham. The boisterous crowd and many cage-side observers saw it differently. The 37-year-old Minnesota Martial Arts Academy standout came out strong, as he put Dunham on the canvas in the first-round and wounded him with an elbow from half guard. The blow left a lateral gash near Dunham’s right eye.

Dunham responded and exploited his advantage standing in rounds two and three. Still, Sherk’s submission defense and takedowns, along with the damage he exacted with his elbow, were enough to bring the judges to his side.

Meanwhile, heavyweights Matt Mitrione and Joey Beltran also pocketed $70,000 “Fight of the Night” bonuses after their three-round donnybrook ended in a unanimous decision victory for Mitrione. Spawned by Season 10 of “The Ultimate Fighter” reality series, Mitrione, a former NFL player, remains unbeaten in three professional appearances.

Finally, “The Ultimate Fighter” Season 7 finalist C.B. Dollaway earned a $70,000 “Submission of the Night” bonus after he coaxed a tapout from Canadian journeyman Joe Doerksen with a first-round guillotine choke. Doerksen had not been submitted inside the first round in nearly nine years.

UFC officials did not award a “Knockout of the Night” bonus, despite former heavyweight champion Frank Mir’s third-round KO against Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic in the main event.

Luther’s Street Fight Breakdown
http://www.fighttips.com/(...)fight-breakdown.html

Okay, guys so I noticed there are a lot of misconceptions and confusion over what martial art is the ‘best’ for a street fight. Now of course it all depends on the user, the instructor, and/or the situation. This is not a ‘must use this’ list, but more of just a breakdown of the separate arts that help more in a street fight, from my experience and the experience of others. I have given each art a rating to from my opinion and that of the martial art community of large.

Krav Maga-4 /5. Krav Maga is a great martial art to use on the street. It is a relatively simple and straight forward, which is good in street combat where complex moves can be forgotten. It is used by special agents and special forces the world over. Most Krav Maga instructors also teach hard conditioning using pads to batter the defender in order for the defender to learn how to act under pressure and confusion. Designed for combat it is very good at handing multiple attackers as well as armed attackers. It consists of ‘battering’ techniques for the most part designed to make the attacker submit from the assault. One of the cons of Krav Maga is that it has a habit of plateau-ing after a certain point. The moves can also be too committed as well and sometimes work off of the concept of a one or two strike victory.

Muay Thai-3.5/5. Muay Thai is a very common art in today’s MMA world and lots of people claim it works well on the street. Which it does. Consisting of punches, elbows, knees, feet, and in Muay Boran, the head. Thai fighters have good footwork and are very good at working at different ranges. It is a very hard style, meaning that the average Muay Thai fighter is used to a little bit of contact; something more traditional styles lack. They are also used to taking hits and as such can recover will in a street fight. Some of the cons of Muay Thai in a street fight are that it is not as effective against ‘pure’ street styles (Krav Maga, Kali, Silat, Systema) and Muay Thai’s fighting style is designed for rounds of fighting and not so much as a really quick victory. Also, Muay Thai is a very limited style with only a handful of strikes and no ground work or takedowns.

Western Boxing-3/5. Western Boxing shares many of the same qualities as Muay Thai when it comes to being a hard style. However boxing does not have any strikes outside of punches and relies on footwork to beat other arts. The cons of a boxer a pretty obvious as it has no kicks, takedowns, groundwork, and plays by a lot of rules. However, if you decide to go toe-to-toe with a boxer, you will get rocked.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu(BJJ)-3.25/5. I’m sure a lot of people will disagree with me here, but I think that BJJ loses a lot of its power on the street. It is purely a ground fighting art. One on one it is a very effective art worthy of at least a 4/5. However, on the street it is a death sentence to go to the ground. If you are jumped you will get stomped/kicked. That being said: BJJ can mangle people very easily. It can be used to fight much larger opponents and is the pinnacle of rape protection (yes, it happens to men too).

Judo-3.5/5. Judo is very similar to BJJ, but also consists of takedowns as well as ground work, hence the slightly higher rating. One of the problems with Judo takedowns is that it often takes both fighters to the ground. This brings us back to the same problem as BJJ.

Kali 4.5/5. I am very biased on this style as it is my expertise. Kali is a very old style and is considered the elite of street combat. It is designed to combat many opponents and is a war style. It uses open hand, short blades, long blades, impact weapons, flexible weapons (i.e.: rope), nunchuka, two handed weapons, biting, etc. It is very indepth and almost impossible to learn everything there is to know, however this is also, its con. Kali takes much longer than many martial arts to become proficient, however once that point is reached the practitioner is very dangerous.

Kickboxing*-3.25/5. I felt it only fair to give kickboxing a rate in between Muay Thai and Boxing. Kickboxing is another hard style that is fairly effective on the street. As its name suggests it works with kicks and punches. These are straight forward and simple and hold up will in a conflict. However no knees or elbows are allowed in kickboxing and most groups (In the United States) don’t allow low kicks like in Muay Thai. As such it again loses out to other styles due to rules and regulations.

Wrestling*-3/5. Wrestling is an okay style for street fighting, but again lacks the proper stand-up necessary in an altercation. Wrestling does have some good take downs and has good stand-up grappling. However once on the ground, wrestling matches often last too long to be completely effective and lose out to BJJ. However a wrestler is very good at projecting weight onto the attacker and if well trained can overpower one attacker on the ground quite well without inflicting lasting damage.

Tae Kwon Do(TKD) – 2.75/5. Sorry TKD guys, but it’s really not a practical street fighting style. I have been beaten by TKD guys, but only in the ring and they were both 2 degree Black Belts. TKD has too much flash to be used on the street, such as high flying and spinning style kicks. TKD does have some simple and straight forward moves, but not enough in variation to be completely effective in a street fight. Another problem is TKD guys are not used to being hit hard as most tournaments only allow up to medium strength hits and no face shots.

School Yard Brawl – 2/5. School yard brawling may look effective to the untrained eye, but haymakers and random swinging are far from effective against a trained fighter. This is less of a rating and more of a warning for all of you out there thinking: “Martial Arts are for wimps”. Against a good martial artist you will lose every single time. But hey, it’s cheap to learn.

Wing Chun Kung Fu – 3.75/5. Wing Chun can get a bad rep in the martial art world, but that’s because it’s not truly understood. Wing Chun is a very linear and closed style that protects the body very well. It is fast and efficient, however it is very hard to find a good school because of Bruce Lee. It is a centerline attack style and the attacks are very non-committed. Wing Chun trapping is also very good. A great style if you can find a good school. I have never ‘fully’ trained in Wing Chun, but my studio teaches it at the highest degree and I often watch.

Hapkido – 2.75/5. Ok, Hapkido is a little tough to rate. I give it such a low rating because of the fact of its overly complicated for what you get. Hapkido is mostly joint locks and strikes that work towards joint locks. Kicking and takedowns are also included which make it a little more effective. However on the street, joint locks only work as long as pressure is applied and that means you must commit to one attacker at a time and that as soon as you let go, they are good to go (unless you use a joint break). Also, some of the techniques take up too much room for urban areas like an alley. However, Hapkido is still very effective one on one to contain a situation without hurting the person too much. I feel the need to restate that all of these reviews are overviews and that there are always exceptions.

Silat – 4.5/5. Silat is very similar to Kali, which is understandable as they were developed in the same location. It too is a war style, that is to say, designed for multiple attackers and quick, efficient attacks. Silat varies greatly so it is hard to point down one style of fighting among practitioners, however most share these traits: A low center of gravity, an advanced weapon system that is interchangeable to unarmed combat, and advanced footwork. Silat typically delivers a very brutal attack that is intended to drive the attacker to the ground where the Silat practitioner can deliver the fatal strikes or negate the attacker’s ability to combat him. One difference between Kali and Silat is that Kali favors muscle/flesh destruction, Silat favors bone destruction. It remains to be seen which is better.

Shotokan Karate - 3.25. Shotokan Karate recieves a mid-ground rating because it is exactly that. A mid-ground martial art. It is a kata based system which helps with muscle memory, but has a habit of limiting options. It has a realistic street fighting system that takes into account cheap shots and has many itself. However, it is static and relies to much on a one or two hit win system. This is mostly the schools that teach Shotokan's fault. It, like TKD, has been McDojoed. Also, Shotokan Karate stresses hard blocks and strikes but does not utilize breaks and other 'street' varible attacks.

Savate - 3.5. Okay, now before everyone freaks I am talking about the street style French Savate, not Boxe francaise. It was made for the streets and then taken to the ring, not the other way around. Savate is French kickboxing that is designed to be done with shoes. They kick with the toe tip in a flicking or stabbing motion. Often these are designed to hit the attackers liver, kidneys and diaphragm which usually will drop an attack to the ground. Also, in the street version of Savate shin kicking similar to Thai is taught. Savate also teaches very good transitions between kicks and punches. One downside to Savate is that it can often easily off balance if the person is not trained enough. Also, no knees and elbows are taught in most Savate, which are very useful on the street.

Japanese Jiu-Jitsu(JJJ) - 4/5. I give JJJ a higher rating than most people would, purely because it has such a all encompassing system. Bjj, Judo, and Karate all came from JJJ. It has all the elements of the arts I just listed as well as some that it has all to itself, such as knife techniques. The only down side with JJJ is that it has a habit of not evolving to the times. What I mean by that is that JJJ can at times seem trapped in the time of the Samurai and is unwilling to adapt to today's society. This is best seen in their weapons mindset. Arnis/Kali, Silat, and Krav Maga have all moved toward a more modern system of defense, JJJ has not. However, it is still one of the best for street defense.

Mixed Martial Arts(MMA) - 3.75. I give MMA a higher rating purely because it is well rounded and used to contact. It often has Thai, Judo, BJJ, and Wrestling in it, which means it is well rounded. However, this rating, if it was to take into account human personality, would be much lower. Many MMA fighters rush into fights, hoping that their training will help them out, however MMA is purely sport and often fighters forget this. Also, many people claim to do MMA, but have very poor abilities. In a perfect world MMA gets a 3.75, however, taking in humans I would give it a 3.25.

Wat een kutevent zeg... Ik had gehoopt dat Crocop zou winnen, maar ging er wel van uit dat hij zou gaan verliezen. Maar op zo'n manier...?!? Een beetje stilstaan en afwachten...?! Nee... de dagen van Crocop zijn wat dat betreft over... Tijd voor wat nieuw vlees in de kuip! Voor de rest vond ik geen enkele partij enigszins boeiend te noemen. Ik was meer aan het ouwehoeren met een maat van mij dan daadwerkelijk de matches volgen dus dat zegt al genoeg.

Falling Action: Best and Worst of UFC 119

Sometimes I feel like MMA fans, much like MMA judges, are afflicted with a disease that makes us place undue importance on whatever we saw last.

That would explain why a takedown in the final minute of the round is somehow enough to negate all the punches a fighter took in the first minute, and also why many fans are talking about UFC 119 this morning as if it was the biggest waste of their money since "Waterworld."

What we saw on Saturday night was an exciting undercard eclipsed by an anti-climactic main event. Whatever highs we may have been riding after watching guys like Sean Sherk and Evan Dunham go at it were obliterated by the time we got to round two of Frank Mir vs. Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic. And since that was the last thing we saw before turning off the TV and trudging angrily off to the bed or the bar, it understandably left some people feeling cheated.

But at the risk of sounding like your overly peppy coworker on this Monday morning, let's look on the bright side. We got to see several good fights from Indianapolis on Saturday night, even if we didn't see them in ascending order. I swear, some nights the main event feels too much like New Year's Eve. We put so much pressure on it to be better than every other night, there's almost no way for it not to feel like a disappointment.

Of course, Mir and Cro Cop seem to throw an especially crappy New Year's Eve party -- the kind where by 11 pm everyone has come up with an excuse to leave -- but that's not the point. What I'm saying is, let's not ignore all the guys who fought well on Saturday just because of a couple guys who didn't. That's all.

Now let's take a look at the big winners, losers, and everything in between after UFC 119.

Biggest Winner: Evan Dunham
Before you furiously hammer out that angry email, yes, I realize that Dunham did not technically win on Saturday night. I also realize that I don't care, because he still had the most impressive performance. Exactly how judges Cecil Peoples and Glenn Trowbridge managed to see it 29-28 for Sherk, I'll never know. He did a good job either fighting off Sherk's takedowns or getting back to his feet in rounds two and three, and in the late going he absolutely battered Sherk on the feet. For some perspective on what that means, Sherk has never been beaten by anyone who was not either a current or future UFC champion. Giving a guy like that all he can handle is no small accomplishment. Whether the judges saw it or not, that's a performance Dunham should be proud of.

Biggest Loser: Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic
He was tentative on the feet and languid in the clinch, but perhaps most distressingly, he didn't seem to care. Even heading into the third round after clearly losing the first two plodding frames, there was zero sense of urgency on Cro Cop's part. It was as if he was content to go through the motions, right up until he caught by a knee to the chin. No one can denigrate what this man has accomplished in the sport over the course of his career, but these days he seems like he's just getting in there to collect paychecks. That's a bad idea. Especially in the UFC.

Best Walking Advertisement for Wrestling Programs Everywhere: Ryan Bader
It may not have been the most dominating performance we've ever seen from him, but Bader's win over Antonio Rogerio Nogueira demonstrated the value of being able to take the fight to mat whenever you feel like it. Give him credit, he was willing to mix it up on the feet with Little Nog quite a bit. But whenever he felt like it wasn't going his way he always had the option of putting the Brazilian on his back. That might have saved the day for him in the third round, and maybe even earned him a very tough showdown with Jon Jones. Talk about a prize most people wouldn't want to win...

Least Impressive in Victory: Frank Mir
How is it that, with all the work he's done on his wrestling, Mir couldn't get Cro Cop to the mat after two and a half rounds of trying? I realize much of his work has probably been on defending takedowns, since that seems like the only way he'll have any hope of ever reclaiming the UFC heavyweight title, but still. Mir spent all night pressing Cro Cop into the fence and waiting for Herb Dean to split them up. If he thinks that's the kind of performance that will send him rocketing up the ranks, he's kidding himself. The knockout at the end almost saved the fight, but coming as it did in the final minute, it just felt like a good scene that comes at the end of a very long and very boring movie. By that point so many people have walked out or fallen asleep, it hardly matters.

Best Worst Game Plan: Matt Serra
Serra is right to wonder what kind of idiot chooses to stand and bang with Lytle, despite a significant disadvantage in height and striking skill. At the same time, aren't you glad Serra is that kind of idiot? The alternative would be to try and smother Lytle against the cage (we've seen how popular that strategy is) or spend all night trying to get him to the mat, only to run into a likely stalemate once it gets there. This way, maybe Serra took a beating, but at least he also put on a show. It didn't do his face any favors, but so what? When you've got as much personality as Serra does, who needs to be pretty?

Worth Keeping a Close Eye On: Matt Mitrione
Obviously he still has some improvements to make, but he's about as good of a 3-0 fighter as you're likely to find in any organization right now. I'd still like to see how he'd do against a strong wrestler, since that does seem to be the litmus test that determines whether you've got a real future in the UFC heavyweight division, but that will come in time. For now, "Meathead" seems to be developing into a genuinely interesting future prospect, which is kind of weird, considering he's already 32. And by the way, the next time you want to break up with your agent, maybe Spike TV isn't the best venue. A simple phone call will do. Though no text message or email. Not unless you've been on less than three dates. That's the rule.

Dana White Questions Frank Mir’s Heart After Lackluster Performance
http://www.fightofthenigh(...)kluster-performance/

The biggest story to emerge from UFC 119 appears to be the rapidly escalating feud between UFC president Dana White and former heavyweight champion Frank Mir.

As we’ve reported over the last couple of days White has been quick to voice his disapproval of Mir’s overall performance on Saturday night, and has even gone as far as to intentionally snub the fighter’s entitlement to the ‘Knockout Of The Night’ award.

Fans and family members of Mir have suggested that White has a personal grudge against him, and judging by his latest quotes he’s certainly not pulling any punches, questioning Mir’s heart.

“I have no clue about Frank. To talk the stuff he does, and then fight like he fought, that’s a little frustrating,” ESPN report White as having said in the aftermath of the fight. “Once “Cro Cop” stuffed his takedown attempt, his heart fell out on the floor. If Frank Mir can’t bully you, his heart shrinks to the size of the Grinch’s. If he can’t take you down, his heart shrinks to the size of a pea.”

White even went as far as to suggest that Mir’s job in the UFC is not safe if he continues to perform like that.

“Sure. You really, really need to show up and deliver. This is a job.”

“You go to your job and don’t perform; what will happen? And when people say, ‘Hey, these guys put their lives on the line,’ that’s a crock of s—. This sport is so safe. These guys have chosen to be fighters!

“These guys aren’t going in to Afghanistan. The US military puts their life on the line. Police, firefighters walk into the line of fire … UFC fighters do not. These are smart guys with college educations. If they don’t want to do this, go out and get a real job.”

I think White is being a little heavy-handed here.

To be fair though he did also say after Anderson Silva’s lackluster performance against Demian Maia at UFC 112 that he would release him if he ever performed like that again.

Silva had a history of similar performances though, such as in his fights with Patrick Cote and Thales Leites.

Mir’s situation seems different to me. This was undeniably a very poor performance, but he did end it in spectacular fashion, and in fact when you look back at his recent record his last five wins have all ended impressively inside the distance.

Of course he did get dominated by both Lesnar and Carwin in amongst those wins, but name a fighter who hasn’t been against those two giants of the division.

It also takes two to tango. It seems that White’s focus has been solely on Mir, but Cro Cop is as much to blame for the performance as he is, and unlike Mir his other recent performances have also been a disappointment.

So there definitely seems to be something more to this story, perhaps stemming back to Mir’s controversial comments earlier in the year stating that he’d like to see his nemesis Brock Lesnar die in the cage.

White didn’t take kindly to those remarks, and if there’s one thing we know about Dana it’s that he’s not afraid to get into a public feud with fighters in the UFC as Tito Ortiz, Rampage Jackson, Josh Koscheck and many more will testify.

It should be noted that despite their differences the aforementioned fighters all still fight in the promotion though, and realistically I don’t think White will end up cutting Mir any time soon.

Frank Mir’s Son Puts Dana White On Blast After UFC 119 Bonus Snub
http://www.fightofthenigh(...)blast-after-ufc-119/

Dana White made a controversial move last night when he opted not to award Frank Mir the ‘Knockout Of The Night’ bonus despite the fact his last minute KO of Mirko Cro Cop in the main event of UFC 119 was the only one on the entire card.

Mir admitted himself that despite the KO he was disappointed with his own performance in what was undeniably an extremely lackluster fight, and he made no mention of being overlooked for the $70,000 bonus after the fight.

If Frank Mir’s son Marcus’ angry comments on twitter since the fight are anything to go by then it seems that behind the scenes the Mir family are fuming about the snub.

“wow i cant believe my dad @thefrankmir didnt get knockout of the night!!”

“f*ck that sh*t dude! no knockout of the night?! thats some damn bullsh*t! !”

“no KO of the night! i bet if cro cock got a last minute KO hed get KO of the night”

“even if you dont like someone, you cant do that to a fighter who trained soo hard and went out and knocked out a legend in the sport!!”

“@danawhite is just trying to blow this whole thing off but i know hes mad that @thefrankmir KO one of the best in the sport so hes srugglin to handle that fact right now!!! so let him drive away on his lil yellow lambo an keep hatin!! hes mad he will never get a chance to get in the cage and do what these guys do!! so lets enjoy ourselves and let him hate!”

Frank Mir has still stayed silent on the matter, but both his wife Jennifer and the ‘Team Mir’ twitter accounts also expressed some disbelief at the decision, though in less heated terms than his son.

So far Dana White has shown no indication of backing down on the matter though, telling one fan:

“You think mir should be bonused for that AMAZING performance last nite! Lmfao!”

There have been signs for a while that their relationship has been somewhat strained. Earlier in the year Mir had made a comment stating he hoped his nemesis Brock Lesnar would die in the octagon. Needless to say that didn’t go down to well with White who forced the fighter to make a public apology.

Shortly afterwards Mir was relieved from his co-commentator duties at the UFC’s sister promotion the WEC, though Zuffa denied it was a direct response to the comments.

The bonus snub certainly doesn’t help to mend any bridges, and Mir’s son’s heated comments have the potential to widen the rift between them even further.

Update:

Marcus Mir has now sent out another message on twitter apologizing for his irate remarks in the wake of Dana White’s decision.

“I apologize for my inappropriate language towards dana white,just mad that the first fight that doesnt get KO of the night happens to my dad”

It appears that his twitter account has since been deleted. Looks like his dad might have had a word with him about it before he caused any further damage.

Gary Goodridge Explains Why He Walked Out on MFL Fight Saturday Night Moments Before the Bell
http://www.mmafighting.co(...)d-for-new-years-eve/

When news first broke that UFC veteran Gary Goodridge stood up former The Ultimate Fighter Season 2 contestant Tom Murphy for their MFL fight this weekend in Montreal, rumors started circulating about why "Big Daddy" walked out of the arena minutes before the main event bout.

CagePotato.com spoke with Goodridge last night and the MMA veteran explained why he went AWOL Saturday night.

According to 44-year-old Barie, Ontario, Canada resident, the event's promoter, Dirk Waardenburg promised to pay him double what the commission was to be told he made for the fight, with 50 percent to be paid in cash prior to the bout and the remainder to be paid via check after the event.

When Waardenburg continued to make excuses all night why he couldn't pay yet, Goodridge says he confronted the promoter about their agreed upon financial terms that were not met and he was told that because of poor attendance, he would only get 20 percent and could take it or leave it.

"All night I kept asking [Waardenburg] where my money was and he kept saying he couldn't pay me because there were too many people around. I was like, 'Why can't we go into a bathroom or something?' you know? Finally, I'd had enough and I talked to him just before they were about to announce the fight and I told him I wasn't going out there unless he paid me," Goodridge recalls. "He gave me 20 percent of what he promised me and he told me he couldn't afford to pay me the rest. I handed it back to him and I told him I wasn't going to fight unless they came up with all of it. "

Never one to be pushed around, Goodridge didn't want a repeat of the non-payment issue he had with K-1 this year for his New Year's Eve fight with Gegard Mousasi and he says he had a bad feeling about what would have happened if he fought without his money in his hand.

"After what happened to me in Japan, I didn't want to risk it. Even if it were a sure win, it's about the principle of it. I wasn't going to go out there with a smile on my face and pretend everything was great and get punched in the head and fight my heart out for them when they treated me the way they did, and end up looking like an idiot," he says. "Because it wasn't on record, there would have been nothing I could do to prove what he owed me. I'd have no recourse. I feel bad for leaving Tom hanging like that, but I wasn't going to be taken advantage of. He thought because the commission had already checked me and my gloves were on, that he had me and I was stuck fighting without having to pay me what was owed to me. He thought he had me backed into a corner and I wasn't going to be backed into a corner."

Waardenburg told TopMMANews.com that he was unsure why Goodridge didn't fight, but insinuated it was stress related.

Goodridge trained for nine weeks for the bout and even cut weight for the first time in his career to fight at a heavyweight "catchweight" of 220 pounds -- another situation he says just didn't seem right from the start.

"When I signed the contract, I was told it was a heavyweight bout, which was fine since I was around 253 [pounds] at the time and I wouldn't have to cut any weight. Then they call me and they tell me I have to get down to 215 and I was like, "Why do I have to cut if it's a heavyweight bout and I'm within the limit?" They told me it's going to be a catchweight bout so I have to get down to 215, but I was stuck at 240 so they made it for 220. I worked my ass off to cut the weight, training and dieting," Goodridge explains. "I've never had to diet in my life, but I did it because I needed the money. I knew if I could get down to 217, I would be okay no matter what scale they used. Knowing what I went through to make weight and how hard I prepared for the fight, it made for a tough decision, but I think I did the right thing. I fucking spent nine weeks training for this fight and I'm sure my opponent trained just as hard. I left my family and my kids to do this. That 20 percent would have helped me a lot and I probably shouldn't have given it back since it wasn't on the books, but I'm honest."

Now Goodridge, faces the reality that the money he should have earned for the fight isn't there and the back bills that the cash was earmarked for won't get paid, which makes his MFL experience even more of a bitter pill to swallow.

"I'm broke. I'm just looking for a job. I'll do security or work in a factory -- anything. I need to get a good job, so wherever I can find one, I'll take it," Goodridge says. "That money would have paid my bills, man. My cell phone is getting cut off and I can't even afford to pay my mortgage."


=======================================
Gary Goodridge Says He Still Hasn't Been Paid for New Year's Eve Bout in Japan
http://www.mmafighting.co(...)d-for-new-years-eve/

It's a little more than eight months since MMA veteran Gary Goodridge fought Gegard Mousasi at FEG's Dynamite!! 2009 New Year's Eve show in Japan. Eight months, and still he hasn't seen a single penny of the money he's owed for that bout, Goodridge told MMA Fighting earlier Wednesday.

"I'm pissed off. I'm fed up. I want my money," said the 44-year-old Goodridge. "Of course, you're like any other fighter at first, you stay quiet. You think, I stake my reputation and my whole career with these people. Of course they're gonna pay. Of course they're gonna pay, since my whole livelihood came from them in the last 13 years. Now it's eight months and it's quite obvious I'm not getting paid. So I'm going to open my mouth now."

Goodridge, who accepted the New Year's Eve bout on less than a week's notice, made no secret of the fact that he was only taking the fight for financial reasons. After losing via first-round TKO at the Saitama Super Arena, he told reporters that he was looking for a full-time job so he could get out of the fight game for good.

"I was going broke looking for a job," Goodridge said in this SI.com story shortly after the New Year's Eve fight. "I got a load of bills that need paying. When I got the call [to fight Mousasi] I thought, 'Thank God.' Now I can pay some bills."

Only now it's August and the $30,000 Goodridge said he was promised by FEG, the parent company of both Dream and K-1, hasn't materialized. Calls to FEG have gone unanswered and unreturned, Goodridge said, and so far the organization has seemed content to ignore him altogether.

"They just won't respond to any emails," said Goodridge's manager, Steve Rusich, who stressed that he did not book this particular fight for Goodridge. "We had a lawyer contact them and they wouldn't respond to him, either. We've heard nothing. Not, 'I'll pay you later.' Not, 'Can you give us some time and I'll give you a little something to tide you over.' Nothing. Zero response," Rusich added.

Rusich acknowledged that getting paid for fights in Japan, where there are no athletic commissions to ensure that promoters make good on their promises, sometimes takes as long as 60 or even 90 days. But never before has he had a fighter who didn't get paid at all, Rusich said.

"Japan has these other rules, but they pay a little more so we accept it. I find myself fronting money to my fighters sometimes because I trust that FEG always comes through. [FEG USA representative] Mike Kogan is fantastic. He always comes through. But in Gary's case, I don't know. It's a bad deal, because he was in some hard times where he just couldn't afford to float the money, let alone not get it at all."

Kogan told MMA Fighting on Wednesday afternoon that he didn't personally handle Goodridge's contract for the New Year's Eve fight, but would check with the FEG offices in Japan to find out what the situation was. As of the time of this writing, there's been no further response from FEG.

Calls to several other fighters on the same fight card also went unreturned, though Goodridge claims he's not the only one who has yet to receive his show money from the New Year's Eve event.

Even after declaring himself "done" following the Mousasi fight, Goodridge has continued taking fights in small promotions because, as he puts it, he has no other way to earn a living.

"Everybody is against it. I'm 44 years old. I should not fight again. I know I shouldn't. But I have to get paid. I'm trying to get a job. But in the meantime I have to get paid, and people take advantage of you."

The way Goodridge sees it, his current predicament with FEG only highlights the need for some form of athletic commission or regulatory body to oversee the Japanese MMA scene.

"You need athletic commissions, because here's a company I've worked for pretty much my entire career. And I've worked for the Japanese public my entire career. 99% of my career has been spent working with the Japanese, and now they screw me like this? I left my family, went all the way over there on New Year's Eve to fight for them for nothing? Come on. I'm worth a little more than that."

One of the most legendary figures in the history of Mixed Martial Arts, and the current #3 P4P Fighter in the World according to http://LowKick.com Community Rankings, Fedor Emelianenko answered on fan questions via his website http://www.fedor.bel.ru Here's a translation of Fedor's answers on questions regarding his next fight in Strikeforce and the possible retirement after his current contract expires.

"The Last Emperor" also personally relared the rumours about M-1's renewed negotiations with the UFC (posted earlier on http://LowKick.com) saying that the only who deals with contract negotiations is the M-1 boss Vadim Finkelstein. However, Emelianenko directly labeled the talk about his signing for the UFC as "not true".

And finally, to all the Fedor fans out there: "The Last Emperor" turns 34 today (September 28th). You can congratulate him through his Official Page on Facebook. The full transcript of Fedor Emelianenko's Fan Q&A can be found on http://Mixfight.ru.

Fedor hello! I have a question for you. Why you are not fighting Bigfoot Silva, and then Alistair Overeem? I wish you good luck and I would like to see you more as a top fighter.

Fedor: I have said many times that I have nothing to do with match-making. Right now, Strikeforce are struggling to find me a serious opponent. Alistair Overeem keeps finding all sorts of excuses not to fight me. The remaining stars have lost in their recent fights, so the promotion has no desire to put them up against me. And Fabricio Werdum is still recovering from his surgery. In addition, I have only one fight remaining with Strikeforce.

Hello Fedor. They wrote about you in the papers that you will retire immediately after the last bout for Strikeforce to become a coach?

Fedor: My next fight will be last on the Strikeforce contract. I'm yet to decide whether I'm going to continue my fighting career after this contract expires. Also, my candidacy nominated for the Post of Deputy in Belgorod Regional Duma, and if I'm elected, I think, will defend the interests of the people and try to do my best efforts for the development of sport. But again, I think it's too early to talk about it. I have to finalize the contract and prepare for my last bout.

quote:

“15 months we want to fight Fedor, but Fedor wanted (none strikeforce title holder) Rogers instead, then after Alistair destroys Rogers, Fedor fights Werdrum? Alistair goes to challenge the winner , which is Werdrum. Fedor only want rematch with Werdrum and not fight with Alistair. Werdum out with injury, we still want to fight Fedor, but he refuses. Then when we finally decided to particpate in K-1 and make the news official, M-1/ Fedor wants to fight Overeem 2 days after Alistair and GG make an official statement that he will fight in the K-1 WGP, what a joke M1/Fedor!!”

quote:

Heavyweight mixed martial artist Stefan Struve has signed a new four-fight deal with the Ultimate Fighting Championship

Alchemist Management, Struve's new management firm, today announced the new contract, though terms were not disclosed.

Struve (20-4 MMA, 4-2 UFC), a 22-year-old Dutch fighter, recently knocked out Christian Morecraft at UFC 117 for his fourth win in his past five UFC fights.

As just 22 years old and standing at a towering 6-foot-11, Struve dominated the European circuit before initially signing with the UFC in early 2009. Although he suffered a TKO loss to now-top-contender Junior Dos Santos in his debut, Struve is 4-1 since the defeat. In addition to Morecraft, wins have come over Denis Stojnic, Chase Gormley and Paul Buentello, and the other loss came to "The Ultimate Fighter 10" winner Roy Nelson back in March.

Of his 20 wins, 14 have come via submission and four via knockout.

Struve currently trains in both the Netherlands and Los Angeles. While in LA, he works with fellow Alchemist Management clients Vladimir Matyushenko, Antoni Hardonk, Jared Hamman and others.

Alchemist Management is run by pop-culture icon M.C. Hammer (CEO), Lex McMahon (president) and Nima Safapour (VP of business affairs and general counsel). The company launched in July and has signed many top-level fighters in recent months.

vr 8 okt. 6:00
Diskwalificatie dreigt voor Schilt
Sem Schilt moet vrezen voor zijn plaats in het hoofdschema van de ‘K-1 World Grand Prix Final’. It’s Showtime-wereldkampioen Hesdy Gerges, die afgelopen weekeinde in Seoel bij het kwalificatietoernooi voor de finaledag op beslissing verloor van Schilt, heeft bij de Japanse K-1-organisatie zowel mondeling als schriftelijk protest aangetekend tegen zijn nederlaag.
Aanleiding is de open scheenbeenwond die Schilt in het begin van de partij opliep, waardoor Schilts manager Bas Boon zich genoodzaakt zag na de eerste ronde stiekem een stuk tape op het rechterbeen aan te brengen. Dit is in strijd met de reglementen.

,,Als de regels worden toegepast, kan de K-1 maar ��n ding doen: Sem Schilt diskwalificeren”, is Simon Rutz van It’s Showtime stellig. ,,Tijdens een wedstrijd mogen de mensen in de hoek zonder tussenkomst van de scheidsrechter en/of dokter geen vechter behandelen. Dat is nu wel gebeurd. Als de scheidsrechter de snee in de eerste ronde had gezien, was de wedstrijd direct over geweest. Hesdy Gerges is een finaleplaats door de neus geboord.”

Als Gerges in het gelijk wordt gesteld, kan Schilt dit jaar een vijfde wereldtitel vergeten. De viervoudig wereldkampioen maakt zichzelf vooralsnog niet druk. ,,Het is hun goed recht om protest aan te tekenen, maar ik ben niet bang voor de uitkomst. Hesdy wil ongetwijfeld ook het liefst in de ring winnen, dan moet je achteraf niet gaan zeuren over een vormfoutje. Ik ga gewoon door met trainen, zodat ik kan knallen in de finale.”

Oh ja dat is zeker zo... In zekere zin heeft Hesdy gelijk, regels zijn regels, maar achteraf is natuurlijk niet de manier waarop je zoiets wilt afdwingen. Beetje hetzelfde verhaal als een zuiver doelpunt wat wordt afgekeurd bij voetbal. Benieuwd hoe dit verder gaat.

quote:

As expected UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre (20-2 MMA, 14-2 UFC) makes his next title defense when he meets Josh Koscheck (15-4 MMA, 13-4 UFC) at December's UFC 124 event.

Officials today formally announced the "UFC 124: St-Pierre vs. Koscheck" event.

The Dec. 11 show airs on pay-per-view and takes place at the Bell Centre in Montreal near St-Pierre's hometown.

St-Pierre and Koscheck currently can be seen on Spike TV as "The Ultimate Fighter 12" coaches. The fourth episode of the reality series airs tonight as Team GSP looks to take a 3-0 lead over Team Koscheck in the tournament's preliminary round.

St-Pierre and Koscheck first fought in 2007 at UFC 74. In his first fight after losing his belt to Matt Serra, St-Pierre controlled Koscheck for a unanimous-decision victory.

"I love this fight," UFC president Dana White stated about the rematch. "GSP is one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world, and Josh Koscheck is not the same fighter Georges fought last time. There is no doubt that this is a title fight between the two best 170-pounders in the world."

St-Pierre reclaimed the undisputed title a year later at UFC 83, where he re-matched Serra and scored a TKO win during the promotion's first trip to the Bell Centre. He since has defended his title four times with wins over Jon Fitch, B.J. Penn, Thiago Alves and Dan Hardy. Three of the wins have come via decision while the Penn victory came via TKO.

Meanwhile, Koscheck has amassed a record of 6-2 since the first Koscheck fight with key wins over Dustin Hazelett, Chris Lytle, Frank Trigg and Anthony Johnson. He secured his title shot with a decision win over Paul Daley, which took place during the promotion's third trip to Montreal back at UFC 113 in May.

That fight is etched into Montreal fans' minds for two reasons: Daley's post-fight suckerpunch – which got him fired from the promotion – and Koscheck's post-fight rant against both their beloved hockey team, Montreal Canadiens, and St-Pierre himself.

Inderdaad idioot van die judge om 30-27 voor Thompson te scoren. Dat er nog altijd zulke figuren tussen zitten.

Verder: Marloes
Kaufman was een stuk krachtiger dan ik had verwacht maar tegen zulke submission skills kan ze niet op. Geweldig hoe Marloes steeds die armbar attempts eruit knalde en hem uiteindelijk nog had ook.
Wel apart om te zien dat haar coach haar breed lachend optilde terwijl ze zelf nog de schrik van haar leven had door bijna Kaufmans arm te breken.
(coach: Marloes: )

Galv�o had geen beste dag.

Diaz vs. Noons vond ik de eerste 2 rondes leuk, daarna was het net een sparringspartijtje.
En dat neem ik Noons kwalijk want ik had geld op hem ingezet.
5 ronden lang heb ik tevergeefs op die knock-out of TKO (cut) zitten wachten

De andere matches had ik gelukkig wel goed. = ���

SPOILER

Afgelopen nacht met de dojo live via stream gekeken en uiteraard gecheered voor onze Marloes! Wat een submission zeg! Arme Marloes die helemaal confused de belt omkrijgt! Geweldig!

The Las Vegas-based Ultimate Fighting Championship is suing a British man and wants a court order blocking him from airing pirated UFC broadcasts.

Zuffa LLC, owner of the UFC, filed suit Friday in U.S. District Court in Las Vegas against Daniel Wallace of Selsey, West Sussex, England.

Attorneys for Zuffa with the Las Vegas office of the law firm Lewis and Roca LLP charge in the suit that Wallace's website, livevss.tv (associated with livevss.net), has carried unauthorized live-streaming video of UFC events including UFC 119 on Sept. 25.

"Given that events are streamed for free on defendant’s website, defendant derives revenue from selling advertising space on the website such that the viewer is continuously bombarded with 'pop up' ads during any given broadcast," the lawsuit says.

"Based upon defendant’s history of offering 'live streaming' of plaintiff’s past events, as well as those of other MMA (mixed martial arts) providers, plaintiff believes that defendant will similarly offer an unauthorized 'live streaming' video of UFC 120 on Oct. 16, the date of the event (in London)," the lawsuit alleges.

"Plaintiff believes that defendant will 'live stream' UFC 120 to Internet viewers for free," the suit said, suggesting unauthorized broadcasts would undermine the authorized live broadcast on Spike TV in the United States and the pay-per-view broadcast in Australia.

A message for comment on the lawsuit was left with Wallace.

The lawsuit accuses him of copyright infringement and seeks a court order blocking him from copying, displaying and distributing UFC broadcasts as well as damages of $150,000 per infringement, attorneys fees and legal costs and forfeiture of any revenue derived from the allegedly unauthorized broadcasts.
