McKinney on MMA Column
Permalink Closed

OK, I have my next article topic in mind. This is gonna be huge. There are going to be three parts to it, and I can't wait to start writing.

1. I am going to preview WEC 31, which will take place on Dec. 12 in Vegas. This event is shown free on Versus in the States, but I'm not sure if it's on TV in the UK. I'll have to get back to you on that (DM...some help?). Anyway, this event features a main event of Urijah Faber vs. Jeff Curran for the Featherweight title. Also on the card are MW champ Paulo Filho (who will be defending his belt against Chael Sonnen), Jens Pulver (who will fight Cub Swanson in his return to the 145-lb/66 kg) division, and Doug "The Rhino" Marshall (who will fight Ariel Gandulla for the light heavyweight title). This is the biggest WEC event ever, and I'm happy to preview it for you guys.

2. I am going to review the 6th season of The Ultimate Fighter. From Joe Scarola leaving the house to the semifinal fights, I am going to tell you what happened this year.

3. I am going to preview The Ultimate Fighter 6 Finale. The main event is a huge lightweight matchup between two young guns in fan fave Roger Huerta and extemely athletic Clay Guida. By all accounts, this will be a great fight, and it has Fight of the Year implications. And of course, you will have the finale of the series. Seven fighters remain: Mac Danzig (already in the semifinals), Matt Arroyo, Richie Hightower, Troy Mandaloniz, Ben Saunders, George Sotiropoulos, and Tommy Speer. Two of these fighters will be in the finale, and most of them will probably fight. I'll break down all of the fights for you, and I'll do it in a way that nobody else can.

Hope you guys are excited. I know I'm excited.

UFC on Bravo 2 and Cage Rage and Cage Warriors on TWCF are the only MMA that's shown over here I believe.

No on TWCF they show quite a few different MMA orgs now including King of the Cage and the ones you have already mentioned. We don't get WEC, IFL, Bodog, or Elite XTC (Other than the recently aquired Cage Rage).

I'm not totally sure about this, but I believe that the WEC event may be available online. The Strikeforce/Elite XC events are almost always available online, so you guys should have access to those too. I knew about UFC on Bravo 2....it's on Spike TV here in the States. I'll still preview the WEC event, but it may be shorter now, as most of the readers will probably not be able to see it...sound good?

I'm sure you can still do a full preview. If anything, it means you'll have a ready audience for the results. wink.gif

My next column (after the 2007 Year in Review column goes up...hopefully sometime in 2007) will be a preview of MMA in 2008. I wrote part of it today, and I'll finish by the weekend. Just something to look forward to!

Unless I missed it, there is no mention of Brock Lesnar's entry into MMA this year yet in The Third Round column, it's listed in his Top 10 stories of the year. What gives?

It's in there, Mibbers. I second-guessed myself and had to go and check. But it's in there. It is one of the top stories of the year. Here's the quote:

"At UFC 77: HOSTILE TERRITORY, a big announcement was made that former NCAA wrestling champion and WWE star Brock Lesnar had signed with the UFC. Some fans questioned the signing, as Brock has only one pro MMA fight, but he is set to make his debut in February against former heavyweight champion Frank Mir. "

That's in the October section

Ah mae culpa.

I was looking at earlier in the year when he had his debut fight. I didn't realise he had actually signed with UFC since then.

2008 MMA Preview is done and should be up soon. Personally, I'd like to make my column a weekly thing, but I guess that it'll stay monthly for now.

I think you'd get burnt out pretty quickly if you did a weekly column. Do it monthly to allow yourself time to breathe. smile.gif

Breathing is overrated. And I have so many great column ideas!
