MMA Brawl

Archive for February, 2008

Back in Vegas, the UFC’s hometown, after the stops in Ohio and Montreal, the Ultimate Fighting Championship is in for another crazy fight night.

To this day, only 3 fights have been confirmed for that event but the bouts, on paper, look really promising.

In the main event, BJ Penn defends his lightweight title for the first time against former champion, and favorite enemy, Sean Sherk. Let’s see what Sherk looks like off the roids…

Wanderlei Silva, the Axe Murderer, will make his return after his epic battle – and third loss in a row – with Chuck Liddell. For this fight he will face Keith Jardine, who recently won against the same Liddell… That’s not a good match up for Wandy who needs to build back his confidence and score a victory. He can’t afford to loose this one if he plans to fight for a long time in the UFC.

Third and last confirmed bout, Tito Ortiz in the light heavyweight, will face Lyoto Machida, a feared and undefeated fighter for possibly his last fight in the UFC. Tito Ortiz is supposed to make a big announcement right after UFC 84… If he can.

Rumored Fights

• Rashad Evans vs. Thiago Silva
• Rameau Thierry Sokodjou vs. Kazuhiro Nakamura
• Jeremy Stephens vs. Terry Etim
• Rousimar Palhares vs. Ivan Salaverry
• Goran Reljic vs. Wilson Gouveia
• Dong-Hyun Kim vs. Jason Tan
• John Koppenhaver vs. TBA

Multi-vitamin is probably the most important supplement that can be consumed by fighters, athletes or any average untrained John Doe. A smoker is advised to take Multi-Vitamin or, even better, C vitamin regularly to counter the destructive effect of the cigarette. It’s also recommended to do a Multi-Vitamin cycle at the end of the winter.

It gives you a good boost when you lack vitamin. If after a while you don’t feel any benefit anymore, it’s time for another pause. I always talk about cleaning cycles in supplement reviews, but I really don’t like the idea of stuffing my body with massive amounts of chemical products, hoping to become a monster in months.

Those products need to be taken wisely and according to your workout routine. Multivitamins may be dangerous if taken in large amounts, due to the toxicity of certain components.

Simply take your Multi-Vitamin in the morning, and after your workout. On the days you don’t train, take only one serving of multi-vitamin in the morning.

Anyone a little versed in MMA knows that the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has been invented by the Gracie Family and popularized by Royce Gracie at UFC 1 to UFC 4.

At the time it was considered the most lethal style of fighting, based on Royce Gracie’s easy victories against monsters and un-skilled fighters. Starting from there, a huge following on BJJ started and it rapidly became one of the most important parts of the new and growing Mixed Martial Arts style of fighting along with Muay Thai and wrestling.

Brazilian Master Gustavo Froes, black Belt under respected Master Joe Moreira, heads the vastly renowned Global Jiu Jitsu Academy in Costa Mesa along with Marcelo Carvalho. They both produced amazing BJJ competitors and are in great demand as Judges in the California BJJ circuit.

In this DVD set box, Master Gustavo Froes covers all the basic, intermediate and advanced Brazilian Jiu Jitsu techniques that he required from his students to receive their Black Belts.

Boxing Coach Christopher Getz has been owner and head instructor of the popular Black Tiger-Top Ten Boxing Gym, in San Diego, California, where he trains many top amateur and pro boxers along with Muay Thai and mixed martial arts fighters.

He’s a Golden Gloves boxer and also fought Kickboxing in the PKA org with a good record of 17-5-1 and held the amateur welterweight title. Getz also has an 5-0-1 record in Muay Thai and a 6th Degree Black Belt in Kenpo Karate.

He truly believes that his wins in kickboxing and Muay Thai were due to his superior boxing skills that he feels many kick boxers’ and MMA fighters lack.

In this DVD set box Getz explains and demonstrates all the technical aspects of the art of punching and explains how to maximize the power and the speed of it. Do not expect sophisticated images and soundtracks, this DVD set box is straight to the point and training oriented only. The lessons are very well structured and all DVDs compliment each other.

Getz covers everything from fighting gear to basic and advanced techniques, so I must say this series offers a complete instructional study on Mixed Martial Arts fighting technique.

Affliction t-shirt is the top seller brand for hardcore MMA fans and for just about any young guy who’s into extreme sport or who has that kind of “live in a fast lane” attitude.

It goes along very well with heavily tattooed arms and necks.

The Randy Couture Screaming Eagle Signature Series is the favorite among MMA fans.

You can get it in two colors, black & white. I like the eagle design, it looks pretty neat.

Affliction sponsored a huge list of MMA fighters like Rampage Jackson, Georges St. Pierre, Randy Couture, Karo Parisyan and Rich Franklin among many others.

Everyone in the world of mixed martial arts seams to wear Affliction clothing or similar brands by watching fighters and people in the UFC audience or other shows.

I have to admit they look pretty cool and with the hardcore attitude of the normal MMA fan, they have achieved a status of “official uniform” of real MMA fans.

If you don’t like black, this brand is not for you. They are actually using only three different colors: black for the material, red for the logo and white for the writing.

Frank Shamrock, one of the best known Mixed Martial Artists, self proclaimed “the fighter who did everything in MMA” and certainly one of the most active Youtube divas, will finally meet the undefeated Cung Le (21-0) in the main event of a co-promoted EliteXC-Strikeforce fight night frenzy on March 29th 2008 at the HP Pavilion in San Jose.

This fight is going to be huge. Frank Shamrock, who plans to fight his brother Ken Shamrock for a highly anticipated “blood brother” fight, can’t afford to lose. He can make fun of Le as much as he wants, call him a little girl or try to hurt with whatever kind of smack talking he can think of, the fact is that he must win this fight if he wants to fight his brother later on this year. Frank Shamrock better take Cung Le seriously, otherwise his non stop bad mouthing and his high self confidence will turn back on him.

Up to now, all the past Elite XC cards and Strikeforce cards were quite successful and fight wise real interesting for most of the fights. Having popular fighters like Shamrock, Le, Kimbo Slice or Phil Baroni make them crowd favorites for the US fans. Recent fights like Baroni vs. Shamrock or Tank Abbott vs. Kimbo Slice were huge successes and this one is going to be big in San Jose.

CatFights time again! This time Remix : Women’s World Fighting Championship is a more “legit” Chick fights DVD than the other sick Catfight DVDs already covered at MmaBrawl : Brawling Chicks and Ghetto Ass Chick Fights.

This DVD is the female version of the Ultimate Fighting Championship from the early days.

In Japan, Mixed Martial Artists from different countries entered a single elimination tournament, just for pride and glory.

All the fighters are using the same fighting techniques used in a male MMA fight: kicks, punches, strikes, chokes and knee strikes. They are all skilled fighters who advantageously replaced balls with women hysteria. And trust me, it works.

This DVD feature over 15 full contact Fights, action packed guaranteed. All the girls you’d never wish to have as a girl friend in a single DVD. Your girl friend never looked so nice…

Leg block or even kicking in a punching bag is extremely painful. You need to build resistance in your legs in order to thicken the bones and slowly transform your legs into a lethal weapon…

You can’t do that right off the bat and expect to be the new Muay Thai kicker after a few months of practice. I know what I’m talking about. I stopped Muay Thay after the first leg block against a trained Thai boxer who was working his legs against telephone poles and was real happy about himself. I couldn’t walk for a week and, 10 years later, I still have a bump on my leg.

That’s why you have to protect yourself at every workout. All the pro MMA or Muay Thai fighters have sore legs for weeks after their fights, “just” after a 15 minutes bout. Imagine what their legs would be if they hadn’t been wearing shin guards at every workout. They’d be handicapped.

Tap Out produced flashy designed shin guards, military oriented, to suit the young’s fashion. There are also more basic oriented shin guards that offer the same kind of protection.

Look at the shin guards I selected for you
