MMA News Roundup


The UFC was on ESPN's Hotlist for the 1st time Monday. Dana White spoke 1st on how he took over the UFC and the evolution of the sport. It was the average explanation of the state of the fight game but necessary to new viewers. Next, Matt Hughes and George St. Pierre came on to be interviewed and promote their upcoming title fight.

Along with Wanderlei Silva, Pride is reportedly sending Phil Baroni and Ironhead Fujita to the UFC to fight on the same card. The opponents are TBA but Baroni has claimed he will be facing a "top Welterweight." Also, Fujita reportedly had his elbow broken in his bout with Wanderlei Silva so his participation is suspect.

The "Final Four" for Pride's Open Weight Grand Prix is set. Wanderlei Silva will face Mirko Cro Cop while Josh Barnett will battle Antonio Nogueira. Silva and Cro Cop fought once before to a draw in a special rules bout. Shogun Rua may also return from injury on the same card as well.

Hidehiko Yoshida suffered a broken leg and torn ligaments from his fight with Cro Cop. Yoshida is out indefinately.

Forrest Griffin and Stephan Bonnar will do it again in a rematch August 26, at the Babalu/Liddell PPV. Both men desperately need a big win after coming off losses. A loss could push one man to the bottom of the ladder in the UFC.

Shane Mosely did it again, and this time left no doubt, KOing Fernando Vargas in round 6 of their rematch.

Andrei Arlovski has torn ligaments and extreme swelling on his leg after his fight with Tim Sylvia. Andrei's boxing coach Mike Garcia, stated the knee area swelled to 4 times its normal size after the fight. Arlovski received a cast on his leg from the calf down and is recovering.

En outre, la confrontation de différentes air jordan 5 metallic silver cultures peut conduire à des malentendus impliquant des cultures distinctes créant une méfiance à au moins une autre (Mihhailova & Piiriste 2004). Avec une personne sur le dernier savoir-faire technologique, les chaussures FlyKnit, Nike continue cependant à l'améliorer en plus. Cowboys a noté qu'il a gardé le soleil de vos yeux et de votre cou. Les chaussures Air Jordan 14 France vertes Nike Dunk Nylon pour hommes, et enfin les lettres bleu blanc rouge High Pro SB pour hommes Nike dunk. Considérant qu'il est en fait conçu à l'écart d'un savoir-faire hybride, la performance de l'article est assurée. Ces chaussures étaient aussi les 1ères paires de baskets Jordan qui présentaient adidas zx flux rose et grise pas cher une semelle de base translucide ou apparente.
