Tag: Mauricio “Shogun” Rua (Page 2 of 2)

Friday MMA Review 3/20

Here’s a weekly rundown of MMA content from Ben Goldstein of CagePotato.com:

Chuck Liddell– Unless he has a great performance against Mauricio “Shogun” Rua next month, the UFC might not want Chuck Liddell to fight for them anymore.

– “King Mo” ruled and L.C. Davis got handled by a scrub at Sengoku: Seventh Battle. You can watch some of the fight videos here.

– Former UFC light-heavyweight champ Tito Ortiz and porn legend Jenna Jameson just had twins.

– After testing positive for three different unapproved painkillers following UFC 94, the Nevada State Athletic Commission smacked Karo Parisyan with a nine-month suspension, a $32,000 fine, and voided his last win.

– We looked at a one-legged mixed martial artist and a sexy Arianny Celeste magazine shoot.

– The full fighter roster for the “UFC 2009 Undisputed” video game was released. But where’s Randy?

– Denied justice in the “Lubrigate” scandal, BJ Penn may be starting a cult at his shadowy island fortress.

– If you have absolutely nothing going on Saturday night, why not watch former WWE star Bobby Lashley beat the bejesus out of Clay Guida’s brother at “March Badness”? Roy Jones Jr. will also be boxing in the main event. (You remember boxing, right? It’s like MMA, except you only get to throw punches, and you have to wear these weird pillow-things on your hands. And there’s no choking!)

MMA Review for Friday, January 23

BJ PennHere’s a weekly rundown of MMA content from Ben Goldstein of CagePotato.com:

– In the aftermath of UFC 93, it was announced that Dan Henderson will coach opposite Michael Bisping on the next season of The Ultimate Fighter, Quinton Jackson will fight Keith Jardine in March, and Chuck Liddell will take on Mauricio “Shogun” Rua in April.

– Remember Jeff Monson, the former UFC fighter who was busted last week for anarchist graffiti? Well, he was arrested again for destroying his girlfriend’s grandfather clock when she discovered he had two wives. The good news is, one lucky prison will be getting a new grappling champion.

– UFC ring girls Arianny Celeste and Ali Sonoma were photographed in very little clothing. (Photos possibly NSFW, and absolutely AMAZING.)

– The battle to legalize MMA in New York is being stalled by one idiot assemblyman.

BJ Penn may have gone AWOL from the UFC’s new multi-million-dollar reality show.

– Brock Lesnar has a Facebook page, apparently. And according to a recent status update, he’ll be having his heavyweight championship rematch with Frank Mir at UFC 98 (May 23rd, Las Vegas). Great profile pic, bro.

– “Affliction: Day of Reckoning” goes down tomorrow in Anaheim, California. CagePotato.com will be liveblogging the pay-per-view broadcast beginning at 9 p.m. ET. For a preview of the action, check out this documentary on headliner Fedor Emelianenko, this in-depth discussion of the event and the promotion’s future, and some sound betting advice.

– Or, you could spend your Saturday night watching Danny Bonaduce vs. Jose Conseco instead.
