Nick Diaz to face Mach Sakurai at DREAM 15

Maybe Diaz should tie one arm to make this a fair fight!

This will be a one-sided affair, but it doesn’t mean it won’t be entertaining!

BJ Penn Undisputed 2010 Trailer

“You wanna be a fighter?” That’s the angle that the UFC and the game developers are taking for the new Undisputed 2010 trailers.

Extended version

This one is better in my opinion. It feels more raw and unscripted.

The next fighter to be featured will be Cain Velasquez, sweet!

BJ Penn is the #1 fighter pound-for-pound says Jake Rossen of Sherdog

I disagree, I think that Penn is a great fighter, but he is not as dominant as let’s say, Anderson Silva or Fedor Emelianenko.

Here’s how my ranking would look:

1 – Fedor Emelianenko – A great fighter that can deal with opponents with different styles in devastating fashions. He is smart and capable of defeating his opponents at their own games. He stood toe to toe with the prime Crocop, and dominated Noguiera on the ground. He KOd two former UFC champions, Tim Sylvia and Andrei Arlovski, within the first Rounds. Although, he hasn’t fought top-competition for a couple of years, I still think that he can defeat Brock Lesnar if they ever met in the cage.

2. – Anderson Silva – Silva was never in the best P4P category a couple of years ago, but he is a different animal now. Silva can dominate his opponents standing and on the ground, with ease. He’s wiped out the entire 185-division, so he moves up to 205. The way he dominated the 205-lb former champion, Griffin, was a revelation. A revelation that this man isn’t just a product of the UFC hype machine; that his wins were not just “flukes; a revelation that he is the most dominant striker in MMA today. While his ground game is mostly defensive, he is still capable of winning on the ground. Ask former UFC and PRIDE champion, Dan Henderson. He was choked out by Silva in Rd. 2.

3 – BJ Penn – Penn is great at three things; sprawling, boxing, and Jiu-Jitsu. Penn has the best BJJ that is utilized in MMA today. When he takes his opponents’ back, it’s over. Ask Kenny Florian, and Joe Stevenson. Although, he hasn’t KOd anybody in a while with his hands, his boxing is top-notch. Penn will wear his opponents down with his boxing, until they’re broken down. Then, he’ll finish them on the ground. I have him as #3 because he isn’t as consistent as the other two above.

I’m not a big fan of Tapout Clothing, but I love this commercial. Very artsy and edgy at the same time, cool commercial except for the last photo!
