The Verbal Submission: Rampage Wins, Couture vs...., and Logan Stanton Pics

Wed, 31 Dec 2008 08:56:19 0000

We are days removed from the biggest MMA show of the year, and I'm still all tingly. I might have had too much egg nog over the holidays. That stuff is addictive. Along with my opinions of UFC 92, I've got a column chocked full of Dana White Vlogs, Arlovski boxing (which is nothing like foxy boxing), and Gary Shaw is trying to return to your TV. We must stop him! All this, and two pics of new UFC ring girl, Logan Stanton. Oh yeah, she's a girl. I checked.

The Verbal Submission: UFC 92 preview, Tito Cosell, and Arlovski 360

Sat, 27 Dec 2008 06:52:06 0000

It's the last Verbal Submission before Santa Claus sneaks down your chimney and leaves every season of The Ultimate Fighter under your tree. What a guy! I've also got my highly suspect thoughts on UFC 92: The Ultimate 2008, Andre Arlovski's foray into the world of web video, Tito Ortiz keeping that spotlight firmly planted on his giant head, and more! So get some hot cocoa, throw some chestnuts on the open fire, and calmly read my personal brand of insanity.

The Dead Push: Hardy vs Kozlov, Baby Voice debuts, and a TNA What If

Fri, 5 Dec 2008 16:21:22 0000

So I was sitting around thinking about TNA and in between fits of rage I decided to do some fantasy booking. Then I started thinking about Vladdy Kozlov and the rage returned again. Wrestling can have a real Incredible Hulk effect on me sometimes. Probably more TV series, and less terrible Ang Lee movie. I haven't seen the Ed Norton version yet. Lou Ferrigno. OK, I'm done.

The Verbal Submission: WEC 37 preview, Kimbo in K1, and Cung Le

Wed, 3 Dec 2008 09:11:13 0000

December has arrived and it's going to be a ZUFFA Xmas after all. The first offering arrives Wednesday night with a highly touted bantamweight title match. I've got some thoughts on that plus Kimbo in K-1, the MMA unemployment line grows, and what's all this jibber jabber about Cung Le? I've also got some wishes for 2009 pertaining to the UFC. Who wants a chubby BJ...Penn?
