Strikeforce Heavyweights Catching Up, But UFC’s Division Still Supreme

admin — Sat, 10 Jul 2010 21:45:07 +0000

While Strikeforce has done an excellent job of building up their superstars in the Mixed Martial Arts world despite relatively small payrolls in comparison to the Ultimate Fighting Championship, the fact remains that the money president Dana White has at his disposal alone is what keeps the former from reaching the latter’s potential as far as star power.

Chuck Liddell Gets Wax Figure at Madame Tussauds

admin — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 14:05:08 +0000

Chuck Liddell is widely regarded as the first mixed martial arts super-duper star, becoming a household name and transitioning into the cultural lexicon as not only a UFC Champion, but also as an actor.

And as his career in the UFC comes to a close, it is almost appropriate that he be enshrined in time at Madame Tussauds wax museum with his very own figurine.

IN the BetFlix MMAWeekly video you can see the unveiling of the Chuck Liddell wax figure and it uncanny resemblance to the former Light Heavyweight Champ as Liddell posed beside his look-alike wearing an identical shirt and sporting the all-to-familiar wide Mohawk haircut and Japanese character tattoo on the side of his head.

The 40 year old Liddell is coming off his third consecutive knockout loss in the UFC, and has lost five of his last six fights, only one of which went the distance.

He has been openly “retired” by UFC president Dana White, who refuses to book the fighting legend in anymore fights under the UFC banner, though Liddell still clings to hope that he will one day be able to not only fight again, but compete in the UFC.

Liddell has been immortalized in the past as a video game character and an action figure, and the Iceman will forever be considered one of the pioneering fighters that helped bring the UFC and mixed martial arts out of the fringe and obscurity into the world of respected mainstream athletics.

While Saturday night’s middleweight bout between Goran Reljic and Kendall Grove has been demoted to UFC’s un-aired preliminary card, MMA betting enthusiasts can still increase their annual betting bankroll on what I believe is one of the best ‘lock’ selections on the entire UFC 116 card.

admin — Sat, 03 Jul 2010 16:57:21 +0000

Kurt Pellegrino has steadily earned his way in the lightweight ranks of the UFC, with losses to Nate Diaz and Joe “Daddy” Stevenson serving as the only blemishes on an otherwise sterling run. He will try to continue to prove his stealth submissions can carry him to glory as he fights the dangerous Australian George Sotiropoulos.

Since moving to lightweight, Sotiropoulos has won three straight fights, including a recent win by unanimous decision over Stevenson which won “Fight of the Night” at UFC 110: Nogueira vs.

admin — Sat, 03 Jul 2010 15:54:19 +0000

The first matchup between Krzysztof Soszynski and Stephan Bonnar was controversial, as a doctor’s stoppage gave Soszynski the win. But the two seemed so closely match and capable of producing a great fight again that a rematch was granted.
