We know there’s mucho excitement comin’ into UFC 140 this Sat night, but the MMA Community
is still in awe as to what happened to Mayhem Miller in his fight with Michael Bisping. According to
Dana White, Miller was breathing heavy during his entrance to the cage and hinted the pressure of
returning to the UFC could have gotten to him. Dana has hinted at cutting Mayhem from the UFC. I
say not so fast. Nerves alone can zap a fighter’s cardio as well as going all out at the beginning of a
fight. I do agree with Dana. It looked like Miller’s first fight. We’ve seen Mayhem Miller tap out the great
Sakuraba and almost beat Jake Shieds. Even when he lost to GSP, cardio was never a problem.
UFC on Fox 2 looking real good. Phil “Mr Wonderful” Davis vs Rashad and Bad Boy Chael Sonnen faces
Mark Munoz with another fight to be added. Rashad went a little too far during pre fight trash talk. React-
ing to Rashad saying he’s gonna ko Phil Davis, Phil’s response was “According to Jon Jones, you have
no chin”. Rashad totally went off on Davis and his final words to Mr Wonderful being ” Gonna put my
hands on you worse then that coach did to those kids @ Penn State”. Davis, by the way wrestled for
Penn. Bad Boy Chael kept it more friendly, saying about his friend Munoz, Mark’s a really good wrestler,
but I’m a fighter. As to #1 contender for Jon Jones belt, Dana says it’s still Rashad.
According to Nick Diaz, Carlos Condit is a better matchup for him then GSP. “Carlos comes to fight”.
Condit says,”First Diaz, then St Pierre”.Georges, by the way claims to have Diaz all figured out. One
thing for sure….Carlos Condit and Nick Diaz gonna bring it @ UFC 143 for the UFC Interim Welterweight
Title. Do not blink! Both guys still looking to fight the current Undisputed UFC Welterweight Champ,
Georges St Pierre. who is unfortunately on the injured list for the next 10 months.
Good news. Strikeforce not going anywhere for now. They return to Showtime Jan 7th. On the card so far
is AKA star and Strikeforce Middleweight Champion Luke Rockhold defending his title against the ever
dangerous Team Jackson and former UFC fighter fighter Keith Jardine. King Mo and Robbie Lawler are also
on the card. Big congrats to Tuf 14 winners John Dodson and Diego Brandao. They both look to be future
UFC stars. If Dodson drops down in weight for the new 125 division, he’s got potential to be a champ. Diego
rocked the house with his white belt armbar from the guard. Yes!!
Until Next Time. See You At The Fights!
