I'm looking at a picture of Ken Shamrock, but I'm seeing a picture of MMA's George Burns!

"i've never even heard of catch-wrestling, i'm going like lets do it, they haven't brought it here and done shit with it"

I actually liked nick diaz's interview, he is right on a lot of points. He talks in street, but its true

Jeff Monson is a complete dumbfuck. He thinks he is all deep, with his MS in Psychology, and his nuanced understanding of governmental systems illustrated artfully by the tattoo of big "A" that can't quite be contained by the circle around it. But he is nothing more than a pathetic conformist, conforming to the style of the outspoken rebel wannabe nonconformist stereotype. Hope you have fun in jail, Jeff.

And Jim Cramer should grow some balls and stand by his original criticisms. He dared to speak out against the liberal orthodoxy that he has long tried to uphold, and they turned against him. So rather than stand on principle, he goes and takes his lashings like a good boy from Jon Stewart in the hopes they let him back in the club. What a bitch!

Monson and Cramer are bithces!

...Oh yeah, and WAR Nick Diaz! Jeff Monson take notes - Nick Diaz is the real nonconformist.

I'm actually starting to feel bad for Ken Shamrock... can I get a prescription to get rid of nostalgia? No? Fine, I'll just drink more...

Like I said, I get the points that Diaz was trying to make, and I like watching his fights. He has an interesting style of trying to gradually wear down his opponents and whatnot. He just needs to work on his interviews a little bit. Although, that could be said about many MMA fighters. I guess when your career consists of getting hit in the head and trying to knock people unconscious, you can't expect everyone to be another Kip Thorne.

diaz is a real dude. i know hes not the best public speaker, but he really does make good points. why should he try to be the perfect role model when the sport he competes in revolves around hitting people in the face? good interview. i think he might have been about to kill the interviewer though.

I'm guessing Ken's speedbag isn't so big and dangly in recent times.

I'm from Olympia, Monson's hometown. I saw that article plastered all over the front page the other day at a gas station and I thought, "Damnit, did Jeff spraypaint his shitty tattoos over some government building again?"

He's such a nice guy too. If only he'd stop painting other people's property and fucking skanky ring girls.

i actually agreed with nick. it's odd because i usually think his bro and him are thugs (with great skills), but he actually expressed alot of true things about the sport i think.

clay guida is a great fighter. his last performance wasnt pretty to watch but he still won. u can hate all u wan but he did what he had to do against a guy that was way taller than him and had a major reach advantage . besides, nate is skinny as fuck he should be at welter weight. i hate seeing tall guys fight at light weight. its almost unfair, they should put height class along with weight class.

I'm guessing the Nick Diaz wasn't a public speaking major...That was just a bit painful to listen to. I ended up closing it after about 4 minutes. I understand he was trying to make a point and defend his image against Frank, but man, he came off as being as intelligent as a horny 14 year old kid in a chatroom at 3am

How unfortunate that they lump WWE and UFC into one category in the "A look at the UFC’s youthful fanbase." article link...

That documentary of Pride, the first 10 years, was very well done with lots of fight clips and candid interviews. Grab a snickers, it's long- a couple of hours but I enjoyed every minute.

I take it back. Boerne has a t-shirt launcher! This is a video I put together at my internship. Check out the jigglies I left in at :08. I'm going to keep an eye out for Boerne V. NB Canyon--fingers crossed that there is a huge riot!

Make a podcast for the MMA rated show, por favor!. It would be cool if I could listen to it in my car. Down south we have cars that we actually drive everyday. PEACE!

Also, the bench clearing fight was awesome. Those two high school teams are from small towns surrounding San Antonio, where I live. I go to New Braunfels all the time to float the river. There isn't anything in Boerne. New Braunfels is sort of famous for Schlitterbahn. Maybe the video will put these two towns on the map! Crazy white kids!

fyi- the last of the three Pride vids is the first Pride fight, Fedor/Cro Cop, and Hendo/Silva in that order in full.

the first two are documentary...pretty cool i thought.
