MMA Sweet Tweets Vol. 11: Tracy Lee, UFC 121 and Guest Co-Writer Erin McDougall
A week without MMA Sweet Tweets is like a week without cell phones and, sadly, this generation simply cannot continue their lives without either of the two.
For all of you old folks out there, it is the equivalent of taking your Viagra and applesauce away for seven days...well, maybe not the applesauce, but certainly the male enhancements.
I sincerely apologize for denying all of you loyal Mitch-aholics your weekly MMA Sweet Tweets crave last week.
You see, I had my hands full with a couple of Peruvian strippers and a jar of peanut butter so, unfortunately, I was unable to provide the Sweet Tweets on that particular day.
But, fear not, because MMA Sweet Tweets is back and with a new twist. Beginning with today’s groundbreaking 11th installment, I am going to feature weekly co-writers to give their Sweet Tweet mentions in addition to my own.
You will be introduced to that guest co-writer later in this slideshow, but first let’s talk about this week’s ultra-sexy and mega-awesome cover girl…Tracy Lee.
Click the next slide to read about Lee and her secret superpowers.
Sweet Tweets Cover Girl: Tracy Lee
1 of 17
If you’re a fan of MMA, chances are you’ve heard of this brunette bombshell and her photography prowess.
You’ve probably visited her website Combat Lifestyle on occasion, and have seen her high-quality fight pictures on websites such as Yahoo Sports. It’s also likely that you have studied her “hot body Sunday” bikini photos of herself and her gorgeous friends.
What you don’t know about Lee is that she secretly has superpowers. No, she cannot fly nor can she shoot laser beams out of her breasts…I mean, eyes (although that would be kind of cool).
Her powers are way more advanced than that because she has what is called “Super Pancake Blasts.” This means if you mess with Tracy Lee, she has the ability to fire a pancake out of her palms at rocket speed and knock you into next week.
Now, personally, I think that is the sexiest superpower a woman can have. You all know my love for pancakes. Granted, I can imagine getting hit in the face with one at rocket speed might not be a pleasant feeling but, nevertheless, I am sure I would enjoy it.

Team Deathclutch: Brock Lesnar
2 of 17
We all know that UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar doesn’t believe in the Internet or social networking. When we are sitting behind our keyboard posting tweets about how much we’d love to pimp smack the cast of Jersey Shore, Lesnar is out in the woods bench-pressing grizzly bears.
However, his Death Clutch team does have a Twitter page. If you want to grow an epic beard like Lesnar, the first step is to follow his team on Twitter.
Actually, the first step would be to eat a raw horse, but for the sake of your health I recommend you follow Death Clutch instead.
Lesnar puts his title on the line this weekend at UFC 121 against Cain Velasquez in a highly anticipated heavyweight collision.
Recent sweet tweet: “RT @HeavyMMA 47 more followers for @heavymma and we're giving away a sweet @dcbrocklesnar @ufc 121 walkout shirt. follow to win!”
Cain Velasquez
3 of 17
In case you didn’t already know…throughout fighting history there has never been a Mexican heavyweight champion. Cain Velasquez is determined to become the first.
I just wanted to remind you of that in case the UFC’s constant promotion of that very fact wasn’t already instilled into your brain like a bad porno flick.
All joking aside, Velasquez has long been considered the best heavyweight in the world by his AKA coaches and other fighters who have trained with him.
On October 23, we are finally going to see if Velasquez can live up to that moniker when he attempts to take Brock Lesnar’s heavyweight strap away from him.
Recent sweet tweet: “RT @dethrone: doors open 11:30, film at noon. free shirts. @gilbertlmelendez and @migueltorresmma will be there.”

Dave Camarillo
4 of 17
The key to becoming a world-class jiu-jitsu instructor is to indulge in as many slices of pizza as you can before you teach class. Forget about what Eddie Bravo says about cannabis—it’s all about the sauce, my friends.
AKA BJJ coach Dave Camarillo is highly regarded as one of the top jiu-jitsu instructors in the world. His supreme knowledge of the ground game is outstanding, and his ability to instill that knowledge into his fighters is absolutely incredible.
What cannabis did for Eddie Bravo…pizza did for Dave Camarillo. And trust me, pizza can do wonders for your performance in any aspect of life.
I am probably the worst bowler in the history of bowling, but you give me three slices of pizza and I’m bowling strikes like you wouldn’t believe.
Camarillo is currently being featured as an assistant coach on TUF 12 for Team Koscheck. He was also a big part of Cain Velasquez’ training camp in preparation for Brock Lesnar at UFC 121.
Recent sweet tweet: “Had a very informative conversation with @DigitalRoyalty last night. Learned a lot, thanks.”
Jake Shields
5 of 17
The time has finally come for Jake Shields to make his highly anticipated UFC debut. A victory over Martin Kampmann this weekend at UFC 121 could easily put the Cesar Gracie-trained fighter right into title contention.
Whoever comes out on top between welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre and Josh Koscheck in December could face Shields next—if Shields defeats “The Hitman.”
Recent sweet tweet: "Big thanks @LVChompers.com for getting me a new mouth guard on no notice. #fb”
Stephanie Ann Cook
6 of 17
On the third installment of MMA Sweet Tweets, I mentioned a nonprofit organization called It Ain't Chemo. They are a group that helps supply cancer patients with comfort items and emotional support in their fight against cancer.
Stephanie Ann Cook is the spokesmodel for It Ain't Chemo. She is also a ring girl for the Las Vegas-based amateur MMA promotion, TUFF N’ UFF.
As you can see, she is a very beautiful woman with a kind heart and a passion to help make a difference in this world. She also loves MMA and seems to be a very cool chick in general.
I’d say she’s definitely worth the follow.
Recent sweet tweet: “Going to victorias secret with ric :)”
Tito Ortiz
7 of 17
According to Ortiz, he is finally 100 percent healthy and ready to take the light heavyweight division by storm once again.
If that is the case, we may see the most impressive version of Ortiz in the Octagon tomorrow night when he meets his former pupil, Matt Hamill.
By contrast, a loss for Ortiz would be devastating and could mark the end of his illustrious MMA career altogether.
Recent sweet tweet: “My Official After Fight Party will be at OC Sports Grille-Across the street from the Honda Center.: http://bit.ly/c2zF5H”
Colton Whittemore
8 of 17
A few days ago, Colton Whittemore committed a horrific crime. You see, this fellow B/R MMA featured columnist had the audacity to steal one of my catchphrases and post it on his facebook page.
See for yourself:
"Aldous Colton Whittemore Follow me on twitter if you want to see awesome tweets about hot chicks, hot dogs, hot plates and hot wings. And you also get to see me argue with cowriters about random crap. All in the name of fun. @ColtonW93, add it!"
Normally, I would slap a lawsuit on young Colton, but I'll let him get away with it just this one time. In all honesty, Whittemore is a promising up-and-coming MMA analyst with a lot of potential to make it big someday.
So long as he never steals another catchphrase from the sexiest columnist in the world ever again, he will do just fine.
You've all read his work here on Bleacher Report, the kid knows his stuff. Check him out on Twitter and show him some love.
Recent sweet tweet: “God I hate the dentist's office. I wish I had a manlier reason to be here”
Diego Sanchez
9 of 17
Diego Sanchez is what I like to call a strange bird, and I mean that as a compliment.
Between the YES cartwheels, the unique yoga and meditation methods, and the insane energy he constantly brings to the table, I find it a mystery how he has not won a UFC championship by now.
Despite his current two-fight losing streak, Sanchez is still an unbelievably talented fighter. The problem is, he hasn’t shown it lately. A third loss in a row against Paulo Thiago this weekend would set the TUF winner back tremendously.
However, the force is strong in Sanchez, once again, as he has reunited with longtime mentor Greg Jackson for this fight.
Recent sweet tweet: “Off to Cali. READY for ufc 121. YESSSS!!!!!!!”
Cherie Carlson
10 of 17
Cherries go with everything. You can literally put a cherry on top of any type of food and it will bolster the taste of whatever it is that you are eating.
Hell, I put cherries on my pancakes all the time. Once I take a bite, it feels as if I am in some sort of fantasyland where ugly people and Snookie don’t exist.
Anyway, meet the lovely Cherie Carlson. Much like Tracy Lee, Carlson is a professional photographer. She is also a model and the director of marketing for Alchemist Management (MC Hammer’s MMA management team).
I like cherries…don’t you? Well then, follow her on twitter.
Recent sweet tweet: “Just left t fighter hotel.@brendanschaub is on point. Doesnt even need to cut weight”
Guest Co-Writer Erin McDougall's Sweet Tweets
11 of 17
I’m Miss Erin McDougall…aka McDoogs and I’m Mitch’s better half.
Sorta.
We pretty much rock the world of Blogtalk radio every Sunday afternoon with the TUF CRAP radio show that we co-host. I am just a regular Canadian girl who laughs at all her own (unfunny) jokes, is always thinking about her next meal and has a dirty love for MMA.
I am so incredibly stoked to be the first guest writer on Sweet Tweets. I’m taking this V-card and happily proclaiming that I was the first. Suckaaaas.
Sweet ass…let’s giddyup with it, shall we?
MMA Beatdown and Big B Traffic

I have no idea how I stumbled onto these guys back in the day, but for the love of God, you NEED to follow @mmabeatdown and @BigB_traffic.
They band together and are a part of the MMA Torture House family (www.mmatorturehouse.com). These two monkeys co-host the site's weekly radio show, and I can assure you no one can say “fu**ing douchebags” or “vagina face” like these guys. I don’t know why I dig the foul language, but I do.
Check them out…the show airs every Tuesday. They are good people…they tweet back, like to help others and are goddamn naturals for making funnies. I promise you a laugh.
Recent sweet tweet: "Whatever you do, don't follow Paris Hilton. That dirty bitche's page has the clap, and that shit lasts forever. #DNFF"

Gals' Guide to MMA

Written by Erin McDougall
I love when we chicks can take MMA and not suffocate our lovely horny hormones when being involved with it. My lady friends at galsguidetomma.com do just that.
They aren’t afraid to be sassy, yet they keep it tasteful. They won’t shy away from making a fight prediction based solely on the “doability” of the fighter and I, for one, love that.
I assure you those sites like Sherdog.com will still be there if you decide that the way these ladies do things is not for you. Give them a chance and check these girls out for a fun take on what’s happening in the MMA world.

Jackie is one of the gals who contributes to the website, galsguidetomma.com, and she is one awesome woman. Not only has she had my back on more than a few occasions, but she shares a sexy interest in Nam Phan from this season's TUF. So, I know she has good taste in men.
More importantly, she knows her MMA and is always on top of what’s happening as far as events go. Every Monday you can check her out for a list of all the MMA events you should tune in to during the week. Um, hello? How wonderful is that? Very.
Recent sweet tweet: "Tomorrow night will be the first (and probably only) time I will be hoping for an AKA win."

Looking for another kickass female MMA fan to interact with?
Hit up Miss Lindsay.
This girl has good taste in all things that matter…She is a tweeting machine and is super-friendly, totally sweet and she loves her MMA. Not to mention, she is beautiful. Now, really, how can you go wrong?!
Recent sweet tweet: "Starting a new book. #nerd ; )"
Jason Day

Written by Erin McDougall
Of course, I have to have a fighter on the list. You should follow my friend, Jason Day. After a bit of a “break” from Twitter, he is now back on, tweeting away and threatening to kick my ass in training. Ahhh, FML. Just what I want in training tonight…Jay Day being excited and happy to punch me in the face.
But in all honesty, he really does have my back and wants to see me succeed. He is a great guy, an awesome friend and he works hard at what he does. Follow him up.
Recent sweet tweet: "@theEMexperience you ready for another ass whooping? I will toughen you up yet!"

Mitch Ciccarelli and Erin McDougall are the sexiest writers in MMA today. Well, Mitch is, but Erin is a close second.
Let’s be honest—there isn’t a soul alive who is better looking than “The Pimptastic” Mitch Ciccarelli. Erin is drop-dead gorgeous, but even she cannot match that level of shmexiness.
Ciccarelli is a featured columnist here on B/R and an employed staff writer for Heavy MMA. He is also a future United States airman and a Jedi Master.
McDougall is an MMA “It Girl,” meaning there are absolutely no limits to what she can do. From writing articles to teaching kickboxing to eating ice cream in the nude to co-hosting a radio show with Ciccarelli to fighting in a ring, McDougall can do it all.
Together, McDougall and Ciccarelli host a radio show every Sunday called TUF Crap Radio.
