Blog of the month

Well, we do not have a section where we spotlight the best blogs we find in the internet, and I am sure I will not start doing this regularly, least of it because most of the time I spend surfing, I read blogs about economics and stuff totally unrelated to martial arts, but I thought the title would fit nice to this thread.

One of the best pound per pound MMA fighters in Europe, Paul Mc Veigh, BJJ brown belt and as Irish as the leprechaun, Guiness and the St. Patrick’s parade, writes in his blog about fitness, conditioning and training for MMA athletes, as well as hilarious stories of drunkenness and mayhem in Glasgow, besides throwing out some nice girls pix into the mix to make it even more interesting. A must read!

Dream 6 GP finals

Just finished a few hours ago in Tokio, Japan, Dream 6 was a great show, with promises of Fiedor Emelianenko fighting the winner of Overeem and Cro Cop on their next event on NYE.

All their fights can be watched online so am not posting results here, instead go to : http://mma-core.com/ and see it all!

Lyoto Machida HL

This awesome brazilian fighter with japanese roots has devastating Karate and BJJ skills, and to this date is unbeaten in MMA.

I reckon that soon he will take the UFC belt. Here the video taken from YouTube:

10 years of Pride

This video celebrates 10 years of Pride. It is a shame that the biggest MMA show had finished, but hopefully the M-1 will grow and replace it in the near future.

I personally always favoured Pride over the UFC, for me it had better fighters, a better production, better rules (although I like the elbows), better pay checks and the ring, which is a neutral ground for strikers, wrestlers and grapplers whereas the cage clearly gives a handycap to the wrestlers, not to mention that UFC has Dana White as their CEO. Every time he opens his mouth, I wish that he fought Fedor without time limit…

Enough said, lets remember Pride in this YouTube Video!
