Slo-Mo of UFC 81 Tim Sylvia vs. Rodrigo Minotauro Nogueira
2008-02-25 18:25:00 Found something to stop the commotion of whether or not Nogueira's finishing takedown at UFC 81 against Sylvia was intentional or not. The video below shows what happens, step by step... you'd be surprised at all the details you would have missed if it was playing in real-time.http://www.youtube.co-m/v/rcpLehAiug4@ :10 - Definitely a half-guard pull. People have argued that he was going for some other takedown, and just slipped, but that looks pretty intentional to me.Before :42 - Waiting out for the left leg to get the simple half-guard sweep.@ :42 - Sylvia basically just gives him the leg in an attempt to pull out of Nogueira's half-guard. Of course, textbook sweep comes. The beginning of the end.@ :49 - Big Nog pulls out of half-guard top to side mount.@ 1:05 - While Nogueria tries going for what I assume was an attempt to either move to NS positon or for an opposite-arm armbar, Sylvia scrambles to get up.@ 1:10 - Minotauro moves with him, locks in the closed-guard gulliotine. ...

The Lighter Side Of The UFC
2008-01-03 08:59:00 I?ve always been fascinated by the UFC?s dichotomy between violence and comedy. For a sport that was born from two men beating the snot out of each other, there certainly are some funny things that go down in and out of the Octagon. As we catch our breath from UFC 67 and gear up for UFC 68, I thought it would be a welcome departure to look at some of the UFC?s funniest moments. With so many to choose from, I?ve tried to narrow down my choices to the five that can still make me laugh. A timeless article (from last year) by MMA Mania's Jesse Holland.5. Go with the KenFloKenny Florian, despite his talent, gets quite a bit of heat from UFC fans. I?m sure it has a lot to do with his stint on The Ultimate Fighter, an experience that can vault you into the main event of a pay-per-view while simultaneously branding you with a Scarlet Letter. Most of the gags are cheap and childish, like the comparisons to Ben Stiller and Kevin Richardson from The Backstreet Boys. There does exist however,...

UFC 79 Analysis
2008-01-02 19:24:00 The UFC 79 card was definitely exciting, but what exactly does it mean for the UFC and its fighters? Ben Zeidler examines the subject.Liddell is back!Chuck Liddell is back in full force, utterly dominating Wanderlei Silva for three straight rounds. Sure, he didn't knock The Axe Murderer out cold, but the performance was solid enough to declare The Iceman officially on the rebound from his Rampage loss earlier this year.St. Pierre takes the crownGeorges St. Pierre beat Hughes with the very move he was beaten by more than two years ago. In doing this, he established himself as the clear top Welterweight and looks to be steamrolling towards avenging the Serra loss.Sokoudjou NOT the real deal, Machida is though...The aura surrounding Sokoudjou's two quick knockouts earlier this year was dispelled as Machida showed the extent of his ability in a dominant submission victory. Sokoudjou goes back to the drawing board, Machida goes to the top 4 of the division.Sylvia-Nogueira for inter...

UFC 77 Brandon Vera Interview Video, Talks About Tim Sylvia
2007-10-17 04:26:00 Earlier today we posted a video of Tim Sylvia talking about his upcoming UFC 77 fight against Brandon Vera. Now let’s hear Brandon Vera’s take on the upcoming fight (note, the video was shot before Randy’s Exit from the UFC). Brandon was very humble during the interview. He hopes that if he beats Tim Sylvia that he will get a title shot. He knows that if he beats Brandon, he will prove to the world that that he’s the truth. He’s setting out to do so.

Tim Sylvia Says He’s Back and Brandon Vera is in the Way - UFC 77 EPSN Vi
2007-10-16 13:23:00 Tim Sylvia talks about his fight against Randy Couture. He states that he was shocked that Randy challenged him. They were friends, he didn’t expect that. Tim said in went into the fight with an injury and Randy went into the fight with a game plan. To fake the leg kick that Randy always threw did when they trained together and throw an overhand right instead. Tim talks about Brandon Vera. He thinks that Brandon is good, but not as good as he thinks. He states that Brandon has not had the opportunity to face up against someone of the caliber of Tim Sylvia, he doesn’t know what he’s getting into.
Rich Franklin Betting Odds - Too Good To Pass Up
2007-10-10 16:41:00 Alright I've put my bet in today. I had been considering a bet on Silva if his odds improved, but the money is still floating his way at most books. Today Bookmaker posted odds of +185 for Rich Franklin.It's just too good of a value for me to pass up. Franklin is a very smart fighter training with an excellent team and he will definitely have an effective game plan ready for this fight. His probability of winning is much better than the 35% chance Bookmaker is listing him at. For insight into those odds here's a CBSSPORTS article discussing rematches at length (Thanks Ufcmania for spotting this one)The other line I'm keeping an eye on is a chalk bet on Brandon Vera. The odds tightened up by about 10 points this week with Vera currently sitting at -175. I would prefer to enter this one around -150, but I'll likely bite at -165. This is another fight I'm really looking forward to both of these fighters have a lot on the line and questions to answer.**update Bradon Vera's odds h...
UFC 77 Preview: Sylvia-Vera Serves As Tantalizing Precursor To Main Event
2007-10-02 22:49:00 For as much hype as is swirling around Silva-Franklin (as well there should be), there is equally little being dedicated to the next most important fight on the card, Sylvia-Vera. Sylvia is still reeling from his loss to Couture while Vera is undefeated and on the fast track to a title shot. With Cro Cop's loss and Nogueira's less than stellar performance (and even worse promoting), this looks to be the bout which will feed the fans their new #1 contender. Of course, nothing has been announced (expect that at the post-conference), but I can't imagine anything else happening.If Sylvia wins (which he isn't "supposed" to, just like Jardine and Forrest weren't "supposed" to), the fans will have to deal with Couture-Sylvia II. If Sylvia were to pull that off, it would be just about the worst thing that could happen to the UFC's Heavyweight division. Right now, Dana White only has two marketable champs, and he doesn't need that knocked down to two. In fact, I would be comfort...

I realize the UFC heavyweight division is much stronger now, but I like having more challenges, and that just gives me more motivation to train. I feel that when I?m on top of my game, nobody can beat me. I have a plan to become the heavyweight champion, so I?m going to stick to the plan that my management team NCFC and both of my coaches set and win the titles. I want to prove I?m the best for my family, my friends and most of all my fans.?Vera's opponent?
