About

I'll go ahead and tell everyone straight up: I'm a Mixed Martial Arts fan. No other sport entertains me nearly as much. No other sport hits that sweet spot where I feel happy and complete after watching an event. It's toe-to-toe, it's in your face and you are accountable for your win or your loss. There is no team to blame it on when everything is said and done. The only sport that I even slightly care about after MMA would be football and I only have a passing knowledge of which teams are good and which aren't, most of which is info that I have heard from friends who care more about it than I do.

So, I'll go ahead and suggest that if you're not interested in the wonderful sport of MMA, then you are probably not going to care about anything I ever write.

Just sayin'. : )

    Anderson Silva's 10 fight win streak in the Octagon. And he will likely have the most consecutive title defenses before he leaves the company.
