According to WCCO-Minneapolis, Brock Lesnar has diverticulitis, which is a digestive disease involving the formation of pouches on the outside of the colon. From everything I've read, the usual course of treatment is "colon rest". The patient eats a low-fiber diet to...

Former Pride Lightweight Champion Takanori Gomi is in the United States and in talks with the UFC. I'd love to see him sign, but until it happens, I'm not getting my hopes up. Gomi thinks very highly of himself and expects a hefty contract. The UFC thinks even higher of themselves...

Brandon Vera has no one to blame but himself for losing the fight. He repeatedly put himself into poor position and allowed Couture to push him into the cage (Usually by swinging wildly following a break by the referee. A better idea might have been to circle towards the center...

Denis Kang vs Michael Bisping -The only reason I'm taking Bisping is because I cannot stand Denis Kang fans. They act like he's Anderson Silva and we should all bow down to his greatness. I'm not sure why this false aura surrounds him. He's a good fighter who had a...

Still not sure how I feel about the possibility of Matt Hughes facing Renzo Gracie at UFC 109. Hughes is one of my favorite fighters. His comeback wins amaze me on so many levels. There's part of me that feels like he could still be a somewhat viable contender in the Welterweight...

At the very least, I'm looking for someone to write daily MMA news round-ups. Literally 1-2 sentences for each item with a link to the story. If you do that well, there's a chance I might let you write longer pieces. You should know up front that I'm a complete psycho and...

According to Scott Coker via the LA Times, Fedor's injured thumb will keep him out 4-6 months. The injury includes a fracture and tendon damage. This is pretty much to be expected after Fedor fights. He almost always sustains a hand injury from ramming his fist into his opponent...

I'll continue saying it until they listen to me...Pat Miletich should be an announcer for all of Strikeforce's major events. The fact he is passed over for Frank Shamrock boggles my mind. Honestly, Frank Shamrock isn't even that well known. Most casual fans probably...

Werdum vs Silva-Werdum came in 14 lbs heavier than his last fight in August. This worries me. Silva is a bigger and can wear down Werdum, if he's not in the best condition. On pure skill, I'd give it to Werdum, but the conditioning thing swings it to Silva for me. -Silva Wins...

Other than the horrible title, it was very well done. Definitely better than "UFC Primetime", which felt forced. "Fight Camp 360" did a solid job of promoting the fight without being melodramatic. The title, though, is about as bad as it gets. I think we all...

I don't blame Nelson for his approach. What a lot of fans do not understand is that competing on The Ultimate Fighter forces you to fight with little turnaround time. Nelson is a favorite to win the show and probably has to if he ever wants to be a UFC mainstay. He doesn't...
