Matt, i just read your BLURB on MMA Fighter Shannon The Cannon Ritch....I would suggest you go find the latest Issue of GLADIATOR MAGAZINE and read it.
You forget to mention that SHANNON is also ranked in the top 5 in the WORLD in several Things.
1. Most 1st round wins
2. Most wins by Armbar Submission
3. Most wins by heel hook / leglocks
4. Fought in most organizations
5. Most international Fights.
You protray him as a GLASS JAW looser, look the guy has 95 wins 72 loss and only 2 draws. His site is www.ShannonRitch.blogspot.com you should interview him, and get his side before you trash his good name. Just my .02

TRUE MMA FAN

Hey Matt,

Glad too see you back recently with two new MMA articles. You always bring a unique perspective to the table. Keep up the good work and let me know if there is anything you ever need.

It's Been a while since I last wrote an article .

UFC 100 is over, But were Brock Lesnar's actions positive or negative for the UFC?

Here are my thoughts. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/217699-brock-lesnar-bad-for-the-ufc

Thanks, Farooq.

Matt-
My latest article is a bit personal- seeing Wrigley Field through new eyes. Check it out when you have a chance. Thanks

Its that time again. Time for the 3rd edition of B/R MMA rankings. We will be ranking our Top 5 fighters in each division (lightweight-heavyweight) and doing a Top 10 P4P rankings.

A few notes: For P4P feel free to include fighters from featherweight or bantamweight. A fighter who hasn't fought in over a year he is ineligible. As far as Rich Franklin and Dan Henderson, Franklin will only receive votes at light heavyweight and Dan Henderson will only receive votes at middleweight. If you have any questions about this feel free to ask. Keep in mind that Diego Sanchez is fighting at 155 at UFC 95. I would lean toward voting for him at lightweight (if he is in your top 5) but technically he is still a welterweight so use your best discretion. please email your submissions to brianc.oswald@gmail.com and in your subject line put: your name and B/R MMA rankings. Thanks for taking the time to vote!
