It looks like UFC 133 isn?t the only event from the famed organization in August having to accommodate a few last minute changes to the card due for health-related reasons. With less than two weeks remaining before showtime, former featherweight contender Leonard Garcia has been scratched from the UFC Live 5 lineup due to an [...]

I’m addicted to this photo process and now look at the world through HDR goggles… It takes a little extra time to shoot and since I hand hold long exposures I often have to do them over multiple times.. I cant wait to see how this one turns out!

In a way, I almost feel sorry for Miesha Tate. Here?s a woman who won her opportunity to compete for a title almost a year ago, only to have it given to someone else after she was sidelined with an injury. After nearly a year away from the cage Miesha returned and gave an outstanding [...]

Rashad Evans made a highly entertaining appearance last night on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon on NBC to promote next weekend's UFC 133 fight with Tito Ortiz. But he talked about a lot more than the fight, getting into fighting advice from his grandmother, what Randy Couture said to him before his fight with Chuck Liddell and more, and also gave an impromptu singing performance as well. All in all, it was a very fun watch, check out the clip below:
