Sean Sherk's UFC All Access Workout - Health - Fitness

If you didn't see the latest "UFC All Access" about Sean Sherk on Spike TV, you missed a helluva show. I've been around the block a few times, and I've seen (and done) a lot of training. I'm not lying nor exaggerating when I say that the workout(s) that Sherk did on All Access were some of the toughest I've ever seen. If you haven't seen it, then you'd better watch the replay. It'll be well worth your time.

Here is a brief rundown of Sean Sherk's UFC All Access Workout:

--Grappling: 9 rounds @ 5 mins each, 45 secs rest (Yeah, you saw that right. Not 3 rounds, or 5 rounds, but NINE. Sherk rotates though 4-6 partners so that he's constantly rolling with somebody fresh.)--Striking/Muay Thai: 5 rounds @ 5 mins each, 60 secs rest--"Caveman Training:" 2x/week, 5 rounds @ 5 mins each, 60 secs rest (This was varied odd object training which included tire flips, sledgehammer strikes, crawling upside down on a suspended cable, tornado ball work, plyometric pushups, ab wheel, bear crawls, cable-resisted punches on a heavybag, lateral shuffling on all fours, time on the air dyne bike and upper body ergometer, and more.)--Striking/Focus Mitts w/Takedowns: 2x/week, 9 rounds @ 5 min rounds (Sherk would hit the focus mitts in combinations, and then shoot in for a takedown. This was repeated for the entire round without rest. Notice again, that he's going for NINE rounds.)--Weight Training: 4x/week, 2 bodyparts/day, supersets done throughout (On a side no te, this does vary slightly from the article that was printed a few months ago in "Muscle & Fitness." Everything is the same for the most part, save for the fact that he M&F article stated that Sherk trained with weights 6x/week - not 4x.)--Stairs: 16 flights @ 13 stairs/flight, 8 trips up (This is roughly equivalent to 128 stories. Sometimes Sherk does Farmer's Walk with two dumbbells up the stairs. Between trips, he does rows with resistance tubing and dumbbell curls as active rest. Sometimes he skips the stairs, and just crawls up the side of the hill they're on, which seems to be almost vertical.)

I dunno about you, but I'm tired just typing all that...

*drinks protein shake*

After the show aired, of course, many of the internet (mma and strength/conditioning) forums and boards were ablaze with discussion. The show brought up a ton of comments and discussions ranging from overtraining, to possible drug use, to effectiveness, to whether or not that much strength/conditioning work was really even necessary, and a lot more. I'm going to address some of these items here.

Overtraining

More than once, I saw questions about whether or not Sherk was overtraining by doing that much work. Of course I've never trained with Sherk, nor do I know him. But from what I see, Sherk is more than likely not overtraining.

You see, Sherk has been training and competing in sports since a very young age. He has led a very, very active lifestyle for quite a number of years. Because of this, Sherk is bound to have built up a huge work capacity (work capacity is basically your gas tank for all physical activities you perform in your life - just how much physical movement is your body capable of?). This means he can do more work (and recover) than most people.

Sherk is a very highly trained professional, who takes his job as a fighter very seriously. As such, he is also sure to get plenty of rest, and fuel his body with good, clean, nutrient and vitamin-rich foods. As he said in the show, "I don't eat for taste - I eat for performance." These things increase his recovery rate, thereby decreasing his recovery time. This means he can do more work.

Don't think, though, that you can jump into this much training. Just because Sherk can do it, doesn't mean you can. If you dedicate yourself with years of hard work and discipline, you may be able, so don't think it's impossible. Just don't think that you can jump into it with both feet, either though...

Steroids

I have no idea if Sherk uses any sort of "performance enhancing" drugs, and I will make no claim that he does or does not. (NOTE - this article was written before sherk tested positive in California.) However, some have commented that based on the sheer work volume Sherk performs, and with the intensity Sherk seems to perform it with would indicate that he is on something other than legal supplements. Based on these two characteristics, I'd say one has no way of telling whether or not Sherk uses. So, quit saying he does when you don't really know.

Effectiveness

If you can't tell by looking at Sherk, and his fights that what he does works for him, then you're blind, a fool, or somebody who just doesn't like the "Muscle Shark."

Could his program be "better?" Sure - Sherk is not a perfect person, and virtually anything can stand some amount of improvement. Does that mean his program could stand a lot of improvement? I don't think so. I think Sherk's results speak for themselves.

I've seen quite a few people say that he shouldn't do that much strength/conditioning work, and that he should spend more time on technique and/or skills training. I'll put it like this - at the time I'm writing this article, Sherk is the UFC Lightweight Champion of the world. He's only lost twice in his career (to Matt Hughes and GSP, both of which are former champions, and both losses in a higher weight class). He was the first to take Hughes the distance in a fight, and took Hughes down multiple times (something that had never been done before). As for his Lightweight Championship fight, to say that he "only" beat Kenny Florian is a joke, and highly discredits Florian's abilities and as a fighter. As as aside, Sherk also sustained a shoulder injury in the fight.

I don't want to turn this into a "nuthugging" (excuse the term) article. But to think that Sherk hasn't has a very successful career is crazy. Sherk's strength/conditioning program has helpe him to have that career.

Is All That Training Really Necessary?

There is no blanket answer to that question. For Sherk, he believes it is, and his results show that it's paying off.

For the rest of us (i.e. fans of the sport and those not fighting at the "elite" level), that much work probably isn't optimal. It would not only be hard to do and recover from, but most of us wouldn't have the time to get that much work in.

What most of us would be better served doing is taking many of the principles and/or ideas from what Sherk does and scaling it down to our own needs, capabilities, time, facilities, etc. For example, my "Working Class Fitness - The Programs" was designed with many of the same sort of principles in mind. Program #1, for instance (you can get a two week trial at my site for free), utilizes strength & power training, sandbag work, and density conditioning. This could serve the same principles as Sherk's weight training, Caveman Training, and stairs,

That is just one example. There are literally endless ways to do it. One thing to think about is to simply reduce the volume that Sherk does. The Striking/Focus Mitts w/Takedowns work might really serve your training well. Well, instead of 9 rounds @ 5 mins/round, you might only need to do 3-4 rounds. Or, you could do 5 rounds @ 3 mins/round.

Whatever you end up doing, there is one thing of Sherk's that we could all stand to emulate, and that is his intensity, drive and work ethic. You might say that there are bigger, stronger, faster, more conditioned, more technically sound, or whatever guys out there, but you'd be hard pressed to find a harder worker.

Ways to Win at UFC - Sports - Martial Arts

The Ultimate Fighting Championships (UFC) began life in America in the early 1990 as the ultimate mixed martial arts, no holds barred fighting event billed as having no rules. In fact there are rules and these are the ways a fighter can win.

A Knockout occurs as soon as a fighter becomes unconscious and his opponent is declared the winner but as UFC rules allow ground fighting the referee must play close attention and can declare a Technical Knockout.

A Technical Knockout (TKO) occurs if the fight is stopped in progress by either the referee, a doctor summoned by the referee, the fighter's own corner or the fighter himself. A stoppage is likely if a fighter becomes so dominant that his opponent can no longer defend himself or a fighter appears to have developed significant injuries such that the fight cannot continue.

A fighter can concede defeat at any time by way of a submission. This is usually indicated by a tap on his opponent or the floor or given verbally.

A Technical Submission is called by the referee if a fighter either appears unconscious during a hold or to have a serious injury.

If the fight goes the distance and no fighter is knocked out or submits then the outcome is determined by judges decision. Three judges are usually called upon to decide the winner. If all three judges are agreed then the decision is unanimous. Otherwise there can be a split decision in favour of one fighter or the judges can decide that a fight is a draw.

Fighters can also be disqualified if he breaches the rules or fails to obey repeated warnings. A fighter can also forfeit the contest prior to it taking place or id both fighters are in breach a No Contest is declared.

The presence of clearer defined rules has ensured that the Ultimate Fighting Championships are a proper sporting contest and were introduced following public opposition to the sport in the 1990s. UFC is now very much a mainstream sport enjoyed by sports fans around the world.

Watch Live Streaming UFC 127 Penn vs. Fitch: The Best Fight No One is Talking About - Sports - Martial Arts

In the coming week, a great deal of attention is going to be paid to the UFC 127 main event between B.J. Penn and Jon Fitch, but before now, not a lot has been made of the welterweight clash.

Moment of total honesty. Im not going to pull punches. And Im not going to sugarcoat it.

BJ Penns UFC 127 bout with Jon Fitch may very well be the toughest stylistic matchup of his career. If I wanted to create a prototype welterweight to give Penn problems, it would be a very big, athletic wrestler who has endless cardio, good standup, and prefers to take down opponents and grind away a conservative victory.

Reads a lot like description of Fitch, doesnt it?

Lets be honest for a moment. Fitch has just about every physical advantage imaginable over Penn.

He is three inches taller and enjoys a four inch reach advantage. Fitch walks around somewhere in the neighborhood of 200 poundsa very, very lean 200 pounds. Maybe his new vegan diet has him a little lighter these days, but there is no question that he will be the heavier guy come fight time.

Fitch is definitely the stronger man. Lifelong wrestlers have a weird, almost Cro-Magnon-like core strength. Im not suggesting that Penn is a weak guy. Not at all. He cant match strength with Fitch, though.

Fitch also has a much deeper gas tank. Have you ever witnessed Fitch run out of gas in a fight? He looked great in the second half of his five-round fight with Georges St-Pierre, despite getting rocked in the first round. Penn cannot make the same claim. The Prodigy has displayed a lack of conditioning in his welterweight bouts. A lack of conditioning is the sole reason he lost to GSP in their first bout.

The physical advantage that leans toward Penn is speed. Actually, it does more than lean. Penn is a much faster athlete, both in terms of hand and foot speed. Other than Thiago Alves, Penn might have the quickest hands in the division.

Anderson Silva Versus Demian Maia - UFC Predictions - Business

Though I feel that there is a lot to this statement, the truth is that there's rather more to this fight.

If Silva can maintain the struggle standing or more importantly if Demian is unable to carry the struggle to the bottom and fast, then it is going to be a short night time for Maia. Silva's striking skills and spped are an excessive amount of for most strikers in the sport, so when loking at a fighter like Demian Maia, who is predominantly a grappler, he will not stand an opportunity on the feet.

To not say that Silva himself is a slouch on the ground, he's not. However regardless of being a Brazilian Jiujitsu black belt he still isn't of the same caliber and Maia who has one of the vital exact and skilled ground games within the sport bar none.

The thirty yr outdated originally from Sao Paulo, Brazil is not solely a second degree Black belt in Brazilian Jiujitsu but in addition has received a number of grappling tournaments by means of out the years including the ADCC 2007 77-87 kg. weight division. As well as others.

Most importantly is that he has won six out of his seven UFC matches and five of these by submission, together with dominant victories of some UFC notable like Nate Quarry, (who did nothing in his bout in opposition to Maia) and Chael Sonnen, the primary middleweight contender, who lost by submission to Maia as well.

What the outcome shall be relies on a number of variables however one factor is for positive, nobody desires to see this fight develop into a boring match that Silva had towards another Brazilian jiujitsu stylist in Thales Leites.

That fight had Silva avoiding the bottom against leites and Leites avoiding the stand up. What we were left with was a boring match through which both fighters have been trying to tug the opposite into their respective ranges and neither prepared to comply.

One factor is for positive although, Silva stays an exciting fighter who's undefeated in his previous ten matches, and this match has the potential of going both manner in an exciting fashion.

Paul Daley just isn't a superb fighter and I fail to understand why he's getting a lot of hype within the UFC. He is the UK's best fighter but that doesn't mean a lot. He has very little talent and is backed by some heavy strikes. How is he suppose to contend with a high 5 welterweight in Josh Koscheck.

In actual fact British males rank excessive in untimely ejaculation, poor weight-reduction plan, dental hygiene and is an overweight society. Most British fighters are simply brawlers and that's about it. British fighters have much less talent, poor coaching and lack in nearly each side of mixed martial arts and path a lot of the major international locations like USA, Brazil, Japan, Russia and Canada.

UFC 134, Roger Federer and More - Sports

Silva seeks revenge against OkamiBefore Anderson Silvas current 13 straight UFC wins, he lost (controversial disqualification due to a illegal kick) to Yushin Okami, the man he will be fighting again on August 27 at UFC 134 that will be held at Brazil, and which will allow the experienced Brazilian fighter to be supported by his home crowd, and to this, he said that its very emotional to think about fighting in my home, Ive fought all over the world, not just in the UFC, but in other events. i feel that all this hard work and everything that Ive done has all led up to this moment. Its very nice to be fighting in your home country and get recognized by all the people around me.

Federer takes down Del PotroAs if it was an act of sporting revenge, Roger Federer defeated Martin Del Potro at the Cincinnati Open in what was probably one of the best matches of the season for the worlds third best. The Argentinean had won in their previous meeting at the 2009 US Open and after taking down Del Potro, now the Swiss is ready to face James Blake from the USA at the next round. I expected a tough match with Juan Martin for obvious reasons, and it went better than I thought, said Federer.

Kobes game is not getting betterAt age 32 Kobe Bryant is not expected to play an MVP level anymore, in fact, he hasnt played at such level in years, which is why it is surprising that the Lakers signed him on a huge contract worth more than $80 million as it is clear that the veteran shooting guard is not getting better, and this could be quite detrimental for the Los Angeles franchise, as he is the player others look up to and trust in to guide them. Even though Kobe might play every game of the upcoming seasons (his contract is due in 2014), dont expect him to lead the Lakers to another championship, as that task is now in the hands of Andrew Bynum.

Maybin signs with JetsAfter underperforming in 2 seasons with the Bills, linebacker Aaron Maybin has agreed on a deal (non guaranteed contract) with the Jets, whom might use the services of the 2009 first round draft pick as a pass-rusher when they decide to utilize formations with 5 defensive backs and will also see action as a replacement for Vernon Gholston, who was released by New York in March.

Sports Headlines: Michael Vick, UFC 135 And More - Sports - Martial Arts

Michael Vick signs huge contract with Eagles After been affected socially and financially by the dog-fighting ring scandal, Michael Vick is a brand new man, and one that just received a huge $100 million contract for 6 years with Philadelphia, the team that believed in Vick when nobody else did, and whom will be trusting in his talents to take the franchise to a super bowl. The veteran quarterback started as third string man when he arrived to the team, but his increasing eagerness for making things right has earned him the trust of the Eagles, and now he just need to prove that he is actually worth the cash.

UFC 135: Jackson accuses Jones of spying The camps from professional fighters can probably all use a bit of insight information concerning what the rival team is doing in order to have their fighter ready to face his opponent, and according to Quinton Jackson, there are spies from current light heavyweight champion Jon Jones on his camp whom are passing information to Rampage's future adversary at the upcoming main card of UFC 135 (to take place on September 24). Jackson's suspicions came due to false information spread by him about an injured hand, to which he received a phone call from Joe Silva, a matchmaker for the UFC, asking about the injury, and with Silva pointing out Malki Kawa, Jones' manager, as the one who told him about it. Whether this is real or not, and whether this can affect Rampage, we will have to wait for the actual fight in order to see how all of this is going to unfold.

Venus wins her first round match against Dolonts World ranked number 36 Venus Williams is starting to dissipate negative comments concerning her current shape as the professional tennis player won her first round match against Russian Vesna Dolonts (ranked 91)in two sets, 6-4 and 6-3. It seems like Williams is humble about the winning as she acknowledges that she is no longer one of the favorites to win it all, as she said that "I'd be at any tournament I could play. I just want to play tennis. It doesn't matter what the tournament is, I just want to play."

Giants fell to Jets 17-3 The Giants were disappointing in their 17-3 loss to the Jets, and the main reason for this was the poor performance from Eli Manning, a quarterback that is struggling to be part of the NFL's elite, and even though he has a super bowl ring, it was clear on the game against the gang green that he is not fully ready to face the challenges of the upcoming season.

Nobody In The UFC Will Beat Jon Jones - Sports - Martial Arts

Current champ different than his predecessorsI understand why people want to hold off on declaring this "The Jon Jones Era."

After all, the last time someone deemed a period in the light heavyweight division an era, Mauricio Rua went and leg-kicked the hell out of it the very next fight. Regardless of the verdict in the first fight, Rua showed that Lyoto Machida's place atop the division wasn't as solid as originally believed.

If that wasn't reason enough to put a hold on sculpting a statue to immortalize Jon Jones, the fact that he's in possession of the championship version of a hot potato sure does the trick.

In beating Quinton Jackson on Saturday night, Jones has equaled "Rampage" and Machida for the most defenses of the light heavyweight championship in the last four years; one. The 205 pound strap has moved around a lot since Jackson successfully defended the title against Dan Henderson, with each subsequent champion looking poised to enjoy a lasting reign the night they claimed the belt.

Those are both very valid reasons for taking a breath before proclaiming Jones on the verge of an extended stay at the top of the most tumultuous division in the sport.

Personally, they don't worry me in the least.

Through 15 fights, Jones has shown us no reason to doubt him; quite the opposite in fact. Each trip to the Octagon has been better than the last, his dominance even greater despite the level of competition increasing as well.

In his last two fights, Jones has systematically destroyed a pair of decorated superstars, fighters who excelled in both Pride and the UFC and stand as two of the best the light heavyweight division has ever produced.

Rua and Jackson were both thoroughly over-matched and completely outclassed, supreme talents made to look inferior by the young star who is quickly proving to be the next evolution in the sport of mixed martial arts.

Prior to picking apart and submitting Jackson at UFC 135, I wrote that Jones had "Greatest of All-Time Potential." Saturday's showing made me want to offer a revision: Jon Jones is going to end up being the greatest fighter of all-time.

I don't see anyone beating Jones any time soon, and I'm usually the guy who can make a case for anyone getting beat.

His abilities inside the cage are second-to-none, and even if he stopped developing new weapons and honing new skills right now, he'd still be an absolute handful for everyone in the division. But that isn't going to happen.

Jones isn't going to suddenly switch off that drive to be great--stop training, stop studying footage of his opponents, and become predictable in the cage. He will continue to grow, literally and figuratively, sharpening his already impressive collection of tools and added new ones to his arsenal at the same time.And it's not like he's been squeaking out wins and battling through great adversity to emerge victorious so far either.

Jones has thoroughly dominated everyone he's faced, beginning with Andre Gusmao and continuing through Jackson Saturday night. He's actually taking less damage now than he was in his early UFC fights, utilizing his length effectively and avoiding punishment.

Each of his last five wins have been finishes, something that stands in stark contrast to Machida during his climb to the top of the division. There haven't been any "near miss" moments for Jones either.

He's completely smashing guys, fighters who are going out and putting it on people the next time out most of the time. Vladimir Matyushenko has collected two wins in less than three minutes combined since losing to Jones, and "Shogun" just crushed Forrest Griffin in Rio. Neither came close to testing Jones; no one has.

Rashad Evans is next in line and viewed as the toughest test to date for the young champion, but each of his last several opponents have been as well, and we've seen how those fights turned out.The rule in mixed martial arts is that everybody loses somewhere along the line, but there are exceptions to every rule.

While most are hedging their bets and waiting for the loss they feel is inevitably going to come, I think Jon Jones is the exception.We're bearing witness to greatness, even if most are not quite ready to admit it just yet.

Werdum Ready to Fight in December, Whether in Strikeforce or UFC - Sports - Martial Arts

Fabricio Werdum earned a new level of respect in the MMA world when he became the man to end Fedor Emelianenko's 10-year dynasty. However, one year later, a poor performance against Alistair Overeem in the quarterfinals of Strikeforce's 2011 heavyweight grand prix took away all hype and even turned many fans against him.

Since his much-derided June performance, the Brazilian grappler has taken time to recover from minor knee surgery and train for the 2011 ADCC Submission Wrestling World Championship, where, this past weekend, he finished second behind Vinny Magalhaes in the super-heavyweight division.

Werdum viewed his camp for the grappling championship as a period of renewal, where he combined ground training with hard physical work, something which he saw as a major gap in his game. Now, the 34-year-old has turned his focus to training with coach Rafael Cordeiro in preparation for a return to the cage in December, when Zuffa brass have told Werdum he will fight again.

"I still have some fights under my Strikeforce contract and I don't know yet if my fight in December will be for them or for UFC," Werdum told Sherdog.com. "What I can say is that I learned a lot after the Overeem fight and I saw some things I needed to fix. I had a lot of strength and brutal power training, and I'm feeling much stronger. I'm sure I'll have a great victory and I'll dominate in 2012."

Training at Kings MMA in Huntington Beach, Calif., Werdum is constantly surrounded by well-known faces, such as Mauricio "Shogun" Rua, Renato "Babalu" Sobral, Wanderlei Silva and Mark Munoz.

Coincidentally, each of them will fight before the end of the year. At UFC 139, Shogun will face former Strikeforce light heavyweight champion Dan Henderson and Silva will collide with Cung Le, while Munoz will take on Chris Leben at UFC 138. Sobral is also expected to make his MMA return in December.

Such a strong training camp makes "Vai Cavalo" even more confident that he will have a strong finish to the year.

"Can you imagine all the motivation from having these guys in the camp?" asked Werdum. "Shogun, Wanderlei, Munoz, Andre 'Dida' [Amado], Babalu, Jake Ellenberger not to mention Rafael Cordeiro's investments in expansion which made Kings MMA a great facility. With all those guys fighting so close to each other, I just can predict a great end of the year and an even better 2012."

UFC: Davis-Machida, Nick Fairley, MLB Game 162 - Sports - Martial Arts

Davis-Machida at UFC 140? Still not confirmedIf Phil Davis and Lyoto Machida fight, the bout is sure to produce a title contender, but when Dana White announced on twitter that the Ultimate Fighting Championship was setting up the Davis-Machida for UFC 140 in December, he forgot that "Mr. Wonderful" is still recovering from surgery on his knee, in fact, Davis was the most surprised when he heard about White's comments, as he mentioned that "All of this is news to me. I'm still recovering and training. That's pretty much the story. I guess the boss must have looked to book me. I'm just not a go yet." In despite of this, the UFC hasn't ruled Davis out yet.

Fairley hasn't debuted yetThe Lions paid $10 million to Nick Fairley for four years when he was picked as the thirteenth overall pick from the 2011 NFL draft, and the defensive tackle still haven't debuted since his recovery from a recent foot surgery has been going a bit slow. The Lions are optimistic as they know that Fairley is part of their long-term big picture and don't want to rush the player to perform before he is fully recovered, though there are some rumors that he will be making his debut on Sunday in a pass-rushing role (limited), but nothing has been confirmed.

Decisive day at the MLBToday is an important day at the major leagues as the last game of the regular season (also known as game 162) is going to be played, and it is quite decisive for the teams whom are looking to make it to the postseason since nothing is decided yet between Red Sox and Rays, and Braves and Cardinals, and it is quite possible that these teams will have to play one more game tomorrow if nothing is decided today concerning the wild card race.

Bologna team with final offer for BryantAll-Star shooting guard Kobe Bryant turned down an offer by Virtus Bologna to play the full Italian Basketball season for $6.7 million, and the club at the same time did not found appealing the counter offer from the player to play for $15 million with an out-clause that could allow him to return to the Lakers when necessary, and now the club has made a final offer to Bryant, as they are offering him a nice $2.5 million for a single month (this is close to one million net after taxes), and since the player is on Italy on a promotional tour for Nike, chances are that he will be meeting personally with Claudio Sabatini, the president of the club.

On the other hand, whilst Jason just lately became any proud pops, he even offers other assures he ought to fulfil.

Succeed bonuses as well as whatever, I've created an assure so I'll end up being back taking care of site, outside inside cold once more soon, " the particular Londoner says that has a laugh.

Coming off the whole camp, Jason is actually fully focused on the job accessible, ready with regard to his Japanese opponent and getting excited about fighting facing a residence crowd once more.

UFC 98: Evans vs. Machida Review - Sports - Martial Arts

Well, looks like the LHW title isn't going anywhere for a good while.

From Las Vegas, Nevada. Original airdate: 5/23/09

Big Lightweight vs Small Lightweight: Frank Edgar d. Sean Sherk w/ short arms via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27).

Why does Sherk think he is a boxer? He is built like a wrestler, his body is basically the antithesis of a boxer's. The guy is not gonna knock anyone out, period. Has he watched too many Rocky movies or something?! Anyways, Sherk should not be on another main card until he changes things up. I feel like the UFC put pressure on Sherk's camp to make him strike more, but it just doesn't work and his fights are still boring. Anyhoo, this was an easy win for Franky, but unless he's fighting KenFlo or a recovered Din Thomas, I'm really not interested anymore.

Not Pointless Middleweight Bout: Chael Sonnen d. Dan Miller via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27).

This one was a bit of a snoozer and I actually like Chael Sonnen as any fighter who can put up with BodogFIGHT and the IFL and still get some time in the UFC deserves my props and I also think Dan Miller has a great future in the sport; hes generally well-rounded and has exceptional submission skills that seem to be natural for him.

Pointless Middleweight Bout: Drew McFedries d. "Professor X" Xavier Foupa-Pokam via TKO (strikes) at 0:37 of round 1.

First knockout of the night and it was worth it as it was one hell of a knockout and X folded like a cheap chair; X should've kept his hands up, especially when he was back against the cage.

Sidenote: Is Tyson rich again? How can he afford the seats? His movie paycheck looked like it was spent on his "date".

Welterweight GRUDGE Match: Matt Hughes w/ annoying entrance music d. Matt Serra w/ Rocky theme via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28).

Well that was anticlimactic. I was expecting more after all that trash talking. This match should have happened a year ago and had a boring finish to boot as they gave the win to the guy who wanted the decision rather than to finish it. Serra had intent to end the fight, Hughes just wanted some fucking points. Disappointing decision. Plus the third round should have at least been a split; Serra had a takedown in the 3rd as well and while Hughes did some damage on the ground, Serra did plenty to counter that.

Light Heavyweight Championship bout: "Put him in a bodybag Johnny yeah!" Lyoto Machida w/ Linkin Park music d. Rashad Evans via KO (punch) at 3:57 of round 2 to become the new UFC Light Heavyweight Champion.

HOLY CRAP MACHIDA STOPPED A FIGHT. Machida fight good. Me love him long time. This went from "OMG BORINGEST FIGHT EVAR" to "HE BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF HIM" pretty quick. Evans didn't even throw a single punch as Mach's punches are so accurate that every single one of those punches in the ko hit Evans flush on the chin. Also Evans looked like his body suddenly didn't agree with gravity or something right in the middle of the knockout as his leg looked like it was about to snap off as he was going down. Machida doesn't look quick until he strikes, then all of a sudden out of nowhere it's like where the hell did that come from? I guess Karate is officially back. Anyways, Evans did the best anyone could have done. The UFC is indeed screwed now, as no one will beat this guy. That entire match was a damn promotional video for karate. A new era has dawned in MMA history my friends; screw Muai Thai and BJJ, I'm signing up for Shotokan Karate tomorrow. This Ryu guy is going to bring i n so many new fans/bandwagoners.

Final Thoughts: I found most of the performances rather "eh". I LOVED seeing Rashad getting knocked out though. That was amazing. That makes my list of favorite knockouts. Although my judgment on that list may or may not be questioned seeing as my all time favorite is Shamrock's knee to the chin knockout victory in his second fight against Kimo Leopoldo.

UFC Undisputed Game Review - Entertainment - Video Games

First let me start off by saying that I have never actually watched any MMA until very recently when I watched the season of The Ultimate Fighter that featured Forrest Griffin and "that one guy". I instantly fell in love with the show and have been following MMA ever since. When I saw that they were releasing a UFC game I was way stoked. The minute the game arrived I threw it into my Xbox and was impressed by the story line that developed from the very start. I played one game of exhibition as Forrest Griffin before making my own character. With my own career/character there was a lot of different customization you could apply. The stats of his fighting abilities were extremely easy to work with and you could even add different sponsors to your shorts. Once you have your character created you are thrown into a fight to set you off in the right direction. The first time I played career I had no idea what I was doing so I actually lost. However, if you lose that is ok and it doesn't affect you all that much. I expect they built it that way because of people like me. I then started off my career trying to learn what the different sparring and trainings had to offer my fighter. Throughout your career as a fighter you are given options to attend UFC sponsored events that will improve your fighter's likability with the fans. In my first career I tried to attend every one of these events.

However, I soon learned that this was only taking away from my training time and would hurt my fighter down the long run. After a long career and retaining the belt for one fight I was forced to retire and that ended my first experiment with the UFC career mode.However once I got a feel for the game I created a new character, one that would be a real challenger. I had learned from my previous experiences and knew what I should and shouldn't do. With my new career I started it correctly by winning my first fight. I then rejected any publicity events and continued to improve my stats. Within about eight straight wins I was able to challenge Rashad Evans for the belt. I of course won, and went on to win every fight until I was forced to retire.

UFC Undisputed is probably my favorite game on the Xbox 360 at this time. The game has a great career mode that matches you up against some of the greatest fighters in the world. The game is easy to understand and does not frustrate you while trying to learn. Even a novice can sit down and play this game with success. I would definitely recommend this game to anyone.

The Jiu-jitsu Technique In The UFC - Sports - Martial Arts

The famed Jiu-jitsu technique employed by the Gracie family was not as well known before 1993 as it is today. What changed was the creation of a new mixed martial arts tournament called the Ultimate Fighting Championship. Essentially, the competition was designed to pit different disciplines against each other in order to determine the most effective martial art. Royce Gracie entered the tournament and won with the use of his style of martial art techniques. After he won two more tournaments the world realized that this was the fighting discipline to master in order to win.

After Gracie proved that a command over the jiu-jitsu technique was essential for success in mixed martial arts competitions, all fighters began receiving some form of personal training in jiu-jitsu, and the UFC became a series of matches on the ground. A standup fighter was almost always doomed, for once the combatant who knew jiu-jitsu got him on the ground, a tap out from the striker was inevitable. Submissions in the form of chokes, arm bars, leg locks and so on became the norm for those early UFC matches.

Because all of this was new to the other fighters, submissions often occurred quite quickly. Yet as more people learned the jiu-jitsu technique, the fights on the ground lasted longer, sometimes with the two combatants seemingly locked in a stalemate, with one on top and the other trapped underneath. The audience began to get bored with this style of fighting and the promoters began to encourage participants to stay on their feet longer to provide more entertainment.

Some people believe the jiu-jitsu technique has disappeared in the recent tournaments of the UFC, but that's not quite accurate. All fighters engaged in mixed martial arts tournaments have to study jiu-jitsu in order to be able to compete effectively. This means that these top fighters can more easily block and counter the different submissions and groundwork that fighters use when grappling. MMA and jiu jitsu still have a strong relationship.

It would be wrong to say that the jiu-jitsu technique is dead in the UFC, just because there are fewer tap outs to submissions than there were before. MMA and jiu jitsu will always go hand in hand; jiu jitsu just won't be the deciding factor in a fight anymore because everyone studies it now. If you are interested in participating in any mixed martial arts tournaments, then you would be well advised to study jiu jitsu in order to be able to compete with everyone else.

Mixed Martial Arts & Street Self Defense #1 - Have you ever noticed one of the best attributes of a mixed martial arts fighter is their ability to stand toe to toe for up to twenty minutes.

Being able to constantly train with other people, wearing sparring gear and fighting each other is essential to learning real skills when it comes to street self defense. In mixed martial arts, all they do is practice fighting on a daily basis. If you can cordinate going to a martial arts class or trying out self defense classes, you will be doing better then sitting on your butt watching the UFC.

Mixed Martial Arts & Street Self Defense #3 - Actively engaging in combat on a daily basis is essential. That's why if it takes saving up and buying a pair of boxing gloves at the wal-mart with a buddy, or joining a sparring based martial arts school is essential for implementing real street martial arts and self defense skills. You want to be able to fight and fight often, like UFC fighters. The more exposure to combat that you get, the less fear and stress you will experience if you ever get caught in a situation that calls for violence.

UFC 110 Nogueira vs. Velasquez Fight Preview - Sports - Other Sports

Cain Velasquez will be a top level fighter in about 4 or 5 years but not when he fights Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira. Despite having 6 knock outs in his last 7 fights Velasquez is not the heavy striker that most people make him out to be. Yes Velasquez can KO people, but he is a "chucker" and he throws the wild over hand right with a lot of power. The difference between theses 2 fighters is power versus technique.

Nogueira may not have more power than Velasquez but he is a better technical striker. If you look at his fight with Cheick Kongo he was picked apart with technical striking. Kongo only hit him with a couple of shots but Velasquez was hurt and you could see the holes in his striking game. If Kongo was a better fighter his striking would have set up other aspects of fighting like grappling.

If you look at Cain's last fight with Ben Rothwell he used his dominate wrestling game to pin down Rothwell. He came in for single leg takedowns and used his dominate wrestling game to impose his top wrestling game. From there he was able to land strikes. Yes he won the fight by strikes on the score sheet but it was his wrestling that set it up. He will not be able to do the same thing he did against Nog as he did against Rothwell. Nogueira's is too good to be pinned down. Nogueira has an incredible bottom grappling game and he will not let Velasquez pin his shoulder or hips down like Velasquez has down with other fighters.

Nogueira is a top level fighter that is something that Cain does not have yet. Nogueira is the first and only fighter to have held Championship titles in both the Pride and the UFC. He holds notable wins over Tim Sylvia, Dan Henderson, Sergei Kharitonov, Mark Coleman, Valentijn Overeem, Ricco Rodriguez, Mirko Filipovi, Jeremy Horn, Josh Barnett, Heath Herring, Fabricio Werdum, Semmy Schilt, Bob Sapp and Randy Couture.

Who has Cain beaten? He has not fought a top ten fighter in his career. UFC betting wise the -120 lines for Nogueira is a good price to wager at. I would have set the Nogueira betting lines a bit higher, so to be this is a high value bet.

This fight will eventually go to the ground and Cain will try to maintain top position but Nogueira will bait him into one position and Velasquez will over commit and that is when Minotauro will submit him.

UFC Undisputed 2010 Goes The Distance - Computers - Computer Games

One year after UFC 2009 was released, the much hoped-for UFC Undisputed 2010 is taking the the human race by storm. With improvements added to the newer version, the fans requests were answered by the games' developers.

UFC Undisputed 2010 is an inspiring showcase of THQ's ability for improving on their franchise. This game is much faster than the last one. When you are fighting and locked into a prone and mid-hold position, your guy is breathing hard and staining to break free. Trying to break out of a hold shows the bulging of the arm muscles quite unmistakably. The transition take-downs are more extensive and marked.

, In this edition of UFC Undisputed you can change to the southpaw stance if you click in on the right joystick, the fight animations have been quadrupled, the clinch has been reanimated, the number of front submissions have been doubled, there's a new targeting system, and there are individual submissions like B.J. The Arm Trap Fighters can easily change fighting styles from Sambo to karate, Greco-Roman to your own self created styles.

Speaking of created fighter, Undisputed 2010 is going to pack more than 100 fighters, and none of them will be made from the creation mode like fifty percent of last year's roster. The athletes look very photo-realistic giving the gamer an genuine experience of being in a fight without having to take any real punches.

The only downside to this game is if you are a button masher, then you'll probably get frustrated trying to get your fighter to make the right moves. The controls are very precise and there is a bunch of combination moves that take a while to learn. Aimlessly mashing buttons will not get the results you are looking for and your fighter will get creamed before you can react but, if you take the time to learn the combos, you'll find the transitions to be smooth and effective.

One other tip is to resist the temptation to skip the Career Mode. The first time I played I skipped that part in my excitement to get started, only to discover that the background story in Career Mode plays an important role in the development of the game later on. How your fighter comes up in the ranks effects your reputation with the media and your fans as the game unfolds and if you rushed past the Career Mode your reputation suffers.

I am sure that this game will be one of the top selling games of 2010. With all the added features, this game may have the potential to be one of the greatest fighting games ever made.

George St Pierre Upcoming Scrap, UFC 124 Vs Koscheck - Sports - Martial Arts

George St Pierre's upcoming fight will be on December 11th, at 10PM EST against Josh Koscheck at the Montreal Bell Centre for UFC 124. This is a extremely anticipated rematch between the two fighters.

As many of you know St Pierre dominated Koscheck in their prior scrap on August 25, 2007, at UFC 74. Last time, lots of people predicted Koscheck would be better on the ground because he is a four-time Division I NCAA All-American andan NCAA wrestling champion, but Georges completely dominated him on the ground, stopping Koscheck's takedown efforts and maintaining top position for most of the fight.

This is sure to be a great fight, as George is focused and training hard. There is a long list of fighters wanting to get a crack at GSP, but his only target right now is Josh Koscheck. Koscheck has been poking at St Pierre for months during the hit TV show "The Ultimate Fighter", which has been a build up to their approaching fight, but George just shrugs it off and keeps training.

St-Pierre, the man under the welterweight spotlight, is not thinking past the sharp-tongued fighter who will be waiting for him in the cage at the Bell Centre on Dec. 11.

"I don't worry because it's not now," St. Pierre said of a possible Shields matchup. "I worry about Koscheck, I don't worry about Shields.

Same for a possible Silva showdown, even if one assumes the Fertittas usually get what they want in the UFC.

"It's not in my head, because it's not an immediate fight," St-Pierre told The Canadian Press. "Saying that too early, that means you expect me to win against Koscheck and you're expecting him (Silva) to beat Vitor Belfort and me beat Jake Shields.

The entire fight card is as follows:

Main Card:

Georges St-Pierre (20-2) vs. Josh Koscheck (15-4) Main Event (Welterweight Title Fight)Stefan Struve (20-4) vs. Sean McCorkle (10-0)Jim Miller (18-2) vs. Charles Oliveira (14-0)Joe Stevenson (31-11) vs. Mac Danzig (19-8-1)Thiago Alves (17-7) vs. John Howard (14-5)

Preliminary Card:
