Cage Fighting Web

Archive for December, 2009

This is my crush I’m talking about. She’s into sports, but I don’t know.

This isn’t some underground thing, it’s a more mainstream show, but still.

I’m just asking the ladies if they’d go to an event like this.
Oh yeah, for 20 dollars, you can climb in the cage at the end and just have a massive brawl.

I think this would impress her, na?

i’d go!!!!! hell yeah!

i’m also into karate and fighting and soccer and contact sports, so maybe i’m just wierd like that.

don’t try to put on the gentleman attitude for a girl. i hate when guys do that. i don’t wnat to spend 4 months figuring out who a guy is, to know if i want to continue dating him. i’d rather find out that night.
it saves you both the heartache.

also, i’m the girl that goes out and fights with guys to flirt, so i might not be the best source, but hey! i tried!

best of luck! and ask her if she’d like to go. who knows, honestly?

I’m wanting to host a Mixed Martial Arts Tournament soon and i wanna know if there is anything legality wise that i have to do or watch out for. Such as if i have to have it in an actual gym or can it be in someones back yard. I plan on it being a big event so help me out here.

I have no idea, man. At a minimum you need the backing of a sanctioning body; an athletic commission or boxing commission.

No offense, but if you need to ask us, you’re nowhere near prepared enough to put on a show.

**UK channels not American or where ever **

Any news were UFC will be viewed in the UK? i tryed to research but keep getting UFC 100 information and thats old.

Some channels are linked like ESPN, Sky Sports, Bravo and Virgin Media.

I hope it isn’t sky because i’m not subsribing to Sky Sports lol
That didn’t help mate, i no the card.

It must be on somewhere, the news just needs to be found

Dana White promised us i think

well UFC 101, i doubt it will be on any of the channels you listed.

Anderson silva moves up to 205 to take on Forest Griffin ( in my opinion will be sensational fight)
Also BJ Penn is set to face Kenny Florian.

Websites like sherdog.com are excellent for keepin up with MMA News but the official website for k1 isnt that great I want a site I can keep track of the next major fights the news on the k1 heavyweight division and thier heavyweight fighters!

If you could let me know Id greatly apprecoate it!

I want to get into MMA, like UFC and stuff like that. I have no prior experience in organized fighting. What would be some good first steps for me to take in learning how to fight Mixed Martial Arts? Do i need to learn karate or something?

I have one question. Are you a fighter and have a dream of being the best one day? Or do you just see the money and fame? Ill tell you how I got started. I did take taekwondo when i was 9 but its not necessary. When i was 16 i started weight lifting and really got into it and bought a boxing bag and speed bag and a jump rope to train at home. I would start by doing some weight lifting so you at least have a base. Next, find local MMA gyms which will vary all over the place and dont hesitate to go into one and ask if they have a free trial. Most gyms offer anywhere from 1 week to a month free to train there to see if you like it. Be sure to let your trainer know that you are interested in competing. From there lots of gyms have there own fight teams and they should take care of the rest for you. Over time you will be able to move up in competition and bigger organizations and get your name out there. But i will tell you that guys on t.v. make it look extremely easy. You will know within the first week wether or not its what you want to pursue or not. Best of luck to you and have fun with it!

By far the most popular is sherdog.com but mmaweekly.com and mmajunkie.com are sometimes more up to minute, they report rumors but specify them as rumors until they have been confirmed. The Yahoo sports UFC section is not so accurate as many of its writers unapologetically push the UFC agenda while being inaccurate in covering none UFC events
