10 Legendary MMA Fighters You've Probably Never Heard Of

Dana White Puts Philadelphia’s Ass on Notice


("Ladies, do you mind? Evans-Machida is about to start.")

Great news for cheese-steak gobbling Ryan Howard fans — last Friday, Pennsylvania officially approved the regulation of mixed martial arts, allowing for MMA events to take place there this year. And you know what that means:

"It’s a big fight town, always has been," [UFC president Dana] White said about Philadelphia on Thursday. "When you talk about Las Vegas, you talk about New York, Philadelphia is one of them too. The Blue Horizon, I saw some of the best boxing ever from the Blue Horizon in Philly. It’s a big fight town…I’m not saying no to Pittsburgh, but we’re going to Philly this year."

Added MMA Weekly:

The UFC is also hopeful that they will hold an event in New York City by the end of this year, and White said he believes other markets like Buffalo could be home to events such as the popular "Fight Night" series on Spike.

2009 has already seen the UFC make its first appearance in Ireland, and the organization is preparing for its upcoming debuts in Tennessee (Condit vs. Kampmann on April 1st) and Oregon (UFC 101 in August). New York is far from a done deal, but Philadelphian UFC fans may want to keep their schedules clear this fall.

The only reason Bisping bloodied Leben is because Leben didn't give a shit and walked right into his punchs, he even dropped his hands and taunted Bisping eating a few punchs and kicks just to show him he has no power. If Leben would stop trying to be so damn entertaining and actually fight with a game plan and discipline he would probably be a legitimate contender. I'm all for a good exciting slugfest but sometimes you need to be smart and get the W. Besides, half the time he does that it's not even very exciting it just looks sloppy.

lmao. You really need to have a search online before you make a ridiculous claim like that. Independence day. lmao. Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story. We still actually own the states. Ever single war you guys have ever been in was fabricated through your media. Only in america could a retard like George Bush become president. lol
And you always go after weak countries. Why don't you motherfuckers invade China. You know why. Some motherfucker in China would just push a button and OOPS where did America go. LOL

Brazil?? No such place as Brasil. And I believe he said it was created in Brazil. Which Is correct obviously.

As a Philly native and resident, I'm thoroughly excited. I figured they probably wouldn't have an event here til after I got my masters and moved. I'm glad to see they're moving quickly, even if it's mostly to try to peer pressure NY.

lol. Britain owns the U.S

No really. We actually own the U.S. Look it up. The states still actually pay us money. We put a large debt on the whole country and they have been paying it us back for over a 100 years. lol

baseball, basketball, american football. nobody gives a shit about these sports outside of the states. and before you mention mixed martial arts. it was actually invented in brazil :)

where as real football. you know the 1 where you use your foot to kick the ball? you know the 1 that wasn't invented as accross between football and rugby. a.k.a gridiron. is played all over the world. even rugby and cricket are played all over the world more importantly than any american sports.
