If there's been a better UFC or even MMA show in 2013 than Saturday's UFC on Fox 7, I can't think of it. If there's going to be a better one later this year, it's going to have to be pretty special. Tonight saw a record-tying number of knockouts, a sensational fight card from top to bottom, surprising upsets, an entire fight team that appears to be improving before our very eyes and so much more....

If there's been a better UFC or even MMA show in 2013 than Saturday's UFC on Fox 7, I can't think of it. If there's going to be a better one later this year, it's going to have to be pretty special.

Two of the top ranked bantamweights in the world will collide tomorrow night (April 13, 2013) as Urijah Faber takes on Scott Jorgensen in the main event of The Ultimate Fighter 17 Finale in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Faber has reached the peak of the sport, but after losing his WEC title, he's been unable to reclaim his top spot. That hasn't stopped him from crushing everyone but the champion, however, ...

The UFC's latest offering on Fuel TV is undoubtedly the best one to date. Today they mark their return to Saitama, Japan after a stacked PPV a little over one year ago. Before you watch the stacked main card, which includes Wanderlei Silva, Mark Hunt, Takanori Gomi, Yushin Okami, Hector Lombard, and other top names in the sport, there are five preliminary card fights scheduled for streaming on th...

Wanderlei Silva vs. Brian StannTim Burke: I still think it’s weird that they’re doing this at LHW. Sure, Wandy wasn’t want to fight at 185 anymore. That’s cool. But he should at least be fighting an actual LHW then! Either way, I’m not sure how much of a difference it will make. Wandy’s chin is not elite anymore, and I think Stann’s is still pretty good. Don’t like doing it, but I gotta turn...

Two of the most experienced bantamweights in the world will rematch this Saturday night (Feb. 26, 2013) as former WEC champion Urijah Faber takes on Ivan Menjivar on the UFC 157 main card in Anaheim, California.

Faber has experienced a very up-and-down career as of late, winning every fight that didn't involve a championship belt but coming up short when the title was on the line. He'll be tryin...

An interim title will be defended for the first time in years tomorrow (Feb. 16, 2013) as UFC Interim Bantamweight Champion Renan Barao battles challenger Michael McDonald in the main event of UFC on FUEL TV 7 in London, England.

Barao has gone 30 fights without defeat, hands down the longest active streak in MMA today. He rose to the top of the UFC bantamweight division, stepping in place of in...

If Michael McDonald defeats interim bantamweight champion Renan Barao this Saturday in London and becomes the youngest titleholder in UFC history, many people may ask to see the Californian’s birth certificate, because it’s hard to believe that he’s only 22 years old. And that’s not just a reflection on his fighting ability, which has resulted in 15 wins out of 16 pro fights, four of them coming ...

Throughout the history of Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), a lot of fighters have won "Fight of the Night" for putting together a dazzling display of fireworks inside the Octagon.

Not a lot of fighters have been able to do it in just four minutes.

That's all Renan Mota do Nascimento Pegado -- known by the mercifully shorter Renan "Barao" -- needed when he went to war against Brad Pickett i...

In early 2011, Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) was making the most of its newly-acquired assets from World Extreme Cafefighting (WEC). Just as Jose Aldo had taken the lead at 145 pounds, Dominick Cruz had anointed himself king of the Bantamweights, preparing for his upcoming grudge (re) match against nemesis Urijah Faber.

While the mixed martial arts (MMA) world focused on the heated rivalr...

Hail to the king, Maniacs.

After more than 1.5 years on the sidelines, UFC Welterweight Champion Georges St. Pierre is back in action and looking to stop the latest usurper, interim 170-pound kingpin champion Carlos Condit, in the main event of UFC 154.

The winner’s next challenger will likely be decided in the co-featured fight of the night, which pits Danish destroyer Martin Kampmann against ...

Rich Franklin vs. Cung Le

Brent Brookhouse: Cung's gas tank is the biggest issue. He gets tired, he also seems like he gets bothered by getting hit after the first round. Cung will win round 1 before Rich figures out his rhythm and takes over as Le fades. I don't see a stoppage so I'll go with Rich Franklin by decision.

Tim Burke: I don't see Cung having much of a shot here, especially if ...

Wait -- tell me you're not still disparaging TUF 12 contestant Alex Caceres and whining about why he's still getting fights in the UFC? Yeah ... that is so 2011.

Caceres is for real. Here's why: only a select few 135-pounders can match his height (5'9") and none even approach equality with his Jon Jones-ish reach measurement (73"). At only 24-years-old, Caceres already has a few years of Kimbo S...

Alex Caceres

Record: 7-5 overall, 2-3 in the UFC

Key Wins: Damacio Page (UFC on Fuel TV 4), Cole Escovedo (UFC on Fox)

Key Losses: Jimy Hettes (UFC on Versus 5), Mackens Semerzier (UFC Fight Night 23)

How he got here: Alex Caceres got his start in fighting on the streets or in backyards in his native Florida. He started training in MMA and refining his technique, going pro in 2008 and winni...
