MMA superstar and reigning UFC Welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre has stated that he feels Kenny Florian will walk away with the belt after he faces B.J. Penn for the UFC lightweight title at UFC 101. He told MMA Weekly:

“I’ve trained with him two times and he looked really sharp. I put my money on him against B.J. Penn.”

Any who have been following the dramatic and highly-publicized feud between B.J Penn and GSP may question the authenticity of his comments, as the men have engaged one another twice in the cage and endless times through a heated volley of verbal sparring in the media.

In this video, UFC commentator Joe Rogan talks about his deviated septum operation and gives a public service announcement about it to people who train and might need the procedure.

Frank Mir feels that Brock Lesnar’s size is going to be a hindrance in their rematch. He says that he moves like a middleweight and will keep Lesnar off balance and confused. In an interview with Cagewriter, Mir had this to say:

“Honestly, I think big guys are easier to fight. They don’t move as fast, they get tired quickly and they’re not as technical.”

Frank will probably be around 250 pounds for this fight and Brock has to cut weight to make the 265 pound limit. We’ll find out a week from tomorrow if Brock really is too big for his britches.

Funny video from last year. But now that Kimbo is with the UFC on TUF, he might be needed LT’s help.

In his rematch with Mike Brown, Urijah Faber broke his right hand and dislocated his left thumb.  In the following video he gets his soft cast off, stitches removed and a hard cast put on.

Great story here about a 72 year old ex boxer who beat the crap out of a young knife-wielding thug.  Story is below, from AOL news.

Never has a boxer lived up to his nickname than the Explosive Thin Man, Alexis Arguello. I was a big fan of his and his wars with Aaron Pryor are part of boxing’s folklore now. Alexis was very popular in his native Nicaragua and he was the mayor of a city there. Not sure of the details of his death, but his life will be remembered forever. He truly was one of boxing’s all time greats.

Here’s another exclusive from TheGARV.com. 12 seconds of Fedor, direct from Stary Oskol, Russia. I will grant you that 12 seconds is not very long, but we are talking about Fedor here.

And by the way, he looks kind of pissed in the clip. This does not bode well for Josh Barnett.

Rampage Jackson had a contest on his website and one lucky fan won a pair of his gloves. In the video below, Rampage announces the winner and gives her a warning.
