The TUF 10 heavyweight cast is actually a pretty decent group. My pick to win it all is Roy Nelson, the former IFL heavyweight champion...you may have seen him fight and lose to Andrei Arlovski on CBS last year. There are guys with NFL backgrounds including Marcus Jones who's turned in to a...

I've been out of this thread for awhile due to being very busy...a computer crash, some illness and just a whole bunch going on. I want to hit on a few things. 1. You can watch PPV's legally online via Yahoo and I think even UFC.com. In fact, UFC had a deal where if you ordered the PPV by...

Yes, I know that the point is to have a size advantage when you're in the cage. But, Swick's mentality is screw it, I'll fight guys who are bigger than me, I don't care...that's why he doesn't see the sense in cutting so much weight when he himself is just willing to go in against the bigger...

The interview with Swick went pretty well. We actually touched on something discussed in this thread. We talked about guys who cut 30 pounds to make a certain wait, like Thiago Alves walks around at 199 and cuts to 170 for his fights. Swick doesn't see the sense in cutting 30 pounds, he thinks...

Here's the thing with Silva/GSP. Even if you agree that they'll fight at say 180 pounds making silva cut 5 more for the fight. It really won't matter because by the time of the fight Silva will be back at 215 and GSP will probably only be at just a little over 185 (though he says if he fights...

Good news for fans of MMA. Strikeforce has purchased select assets of EliteXC and as a result, MMA is returning to both Showtime and CBS with the first show on Showtime coming on April 11. This is good news, because unlike say, Affliction, Strikeforce is actually run by people who know how to...

GSP's performance last night was nothing short of amazing. I've always thought that Anderson Silva would be able to beat GSP if they fought, last night made me waver in that to the degree that now I wouldn't call it a certainty, GSP is just so good that I think if anyone could give up as much...

The final live event coverage post in combat-hooligans.com history will be right here I'm not personally doing the honors tonight but I will be popping in on the comments section to give my thoughts on the post. I'd like to personally thank a lot of you guys for visiting the site through the...

I'm nearly crawling out of my skin with excitement for UFC 94 tonight. I think Penn-St. Pierre could end up going down as one of those all-time great fights. Let the record show that the first UFC Pay Per View I ever ordered was UFC 58 where their first match was the co-feature. I've gone back...

Wow, this thread has been quiet for quite some time. I've personally been very busy and am only going to get busier as the UFC decides to run a show about once every 20 minutes or so. My latest project is an audio show called MMA Sunday done every sunday at 9:00 PM ET. Our first show was...

more on the licensing agreement UFC wanted those guys to sign If what Dan Lambert of ATT says is true, and I have no reason to think that it isn't, I really don't see the UFC's request as all that unreasonable. 1. It would only be for the video game and wouldn't prevent guys from getting...

Randy's suspension is until Jan. 15 with no contact until Dec. 31. Penn will fight GSP on Jan. 31. When he fight's Florian depends entirely on what happens in the GSP fight. Figure he comes through just fine with no injuries he could fight Florian in May. That's the same turn-around he had...

I can't believe it Seriously, I'm dumbstruck right now by what I have just written and now linked here. These people have gone mad and by these people I mean Dana White. As for the fight on Saturday, no surprise because nothing would have surprised me other than maybe a Brock win by...

As for TUF the consumption of well...bodily fluids has been the most disturbing thing on TUF, ever.

Well, I'm expecting an apartment full of people, can't remember the last time I was expecting this many for a UFC show. Anyway, if for some reason you want to follow along with my recap or read it when the show is over, you'll find it here and you can also vote in our poll to predict the main...
