- Don't Try To Steal Cars From UFC Fighters
Ever thought about stealing a car? That's not smart. Ever thought about stealing a car that belongs to a professional fighter? That's probably the least smart thing you could ever do. Well it so turns out, people as smart as this actually exist! Turns out just yes. Someone tried to steal Jordan Williams, a UFC Welterweight fighters car yesterday. You can go see the video from the incident on his Instagram account - bomayemma Where this wanna be car thief lurks outside the store watching Jordan go inside. He then rushes inside the car and tries to leave, but doesn't get very far before he's yanked from the vehicle. To then run off with his tail between his legs Believe it or not, this isn't the first case of a UFC fighter having someone trying to Grand Theft Auto them. Derrick Lewis was also almost a car thief victim. What almost was a video game like car robbery turned into an MMA fight in Derrick Lewis's thief's case. The guy was rag doll ripped right out of the car (he didn't know how to drive stick) and was rightfully knocked the **** out. You can watch a video of Derrick giving one of his famous post fight interviews after the attempted car theft. He's a little more serious than he is in his usual post fight interviews, but it's a great one to watch none the less. What do you think of these car thieves? How dumb can you be to try to steal a car, let alone a car owned by Derrick Lewis. Don't go around stealing cars. Especially nice ones, it might belong to Mike Tyson Or Floyd Mayweather.

I like Spence, I respect Spence. I know he is always ready for any challenge. I just think ⊠I just have some suspicions about this whole thing. I just think the way it manifested and came out suddenly and so fast ⊠Iâll just say stay tuned." "If you hear something other than what everyone was given and what was told. I think there is more to the story than what it is. But if it is true, I wish him a speedy recovery. But I just have to say that first because I want to be the first one that people say, âwhat did I know that everybody else didnât first knowâ or âwhat did I know that a few people did know but nobody was bold enough or brave enough to say it." "Again, if itâs the case then I think we all should see it. It can be an eye issue. It can be business. It could be lack of. The whole thing ⊠itâs been told and most people probably will believe it. Most people wonât dare to question it or ask for more details. Iâm the type of person, Iâll show the X-ray to the world. If Iâm ready to fight, Iâll say âlook, itâs a hairline fracture or itâs a straight cut-through broken bone." What do you think? Are you excited for Pacman to face off with Ugas?

- Cormier VS Mcgregor Twitter Fued
Conor as graceful and humble as he is, had some kind words for Daniel on twitter yesterday. If you know anything about Conor, you know that last sentence was sarcastic. Cormier and Mcgregor have been exchanging words for some time now as Mcgregor recently tweeted out against Khabib's late father. Courmier had this to say - âSo McGregor, listen to me bud. Stop worrying about me. Donât worry about Daniel Cormier. Donât worry about the things that Iâm saying. Donât worry about how Iâm dressing and how Iâm looking. Donât do that. Worry about the dudes that keep beating your ass every time you go into the octagon.â âIâm not the guy youâve got to worry about fighting, Iâm done. Iâm retired. Iâm living my best life. You need to worry about trying to beat the guys that you fight against. Get off the internet. I donât hate this dude, but McGregor, fall back.â Courmier went on to explain the Mcgregor acting out like this is a cry for help. With emphasis he meant that sincerely. He acknowledged Mcgregors abilities as an athlete but mentions concerns for his health and those he surrounds himself with. So maybe this will be the last of the twitter spats between the two, or it's just the beginnign. What do you think?

- Ngannou VS Gane Sparring Video Surfaces
A video is going viral of Francis Ngannou and Ciryl Gane point sparring. It turns out that the Cameroonian moved to France to further his MMA career, where he was a training partner of Gane. The two actually know each other fairly well and seem to show a mutual respect towards the other. Ciryl Gane has since come out and stated - "Training is something, but the fight is another." Acknowledging that although he seemed to hold his own against Ngannou, actually fighting him may be a whole other story. "For me it's just a sport. I want to make a show. I want to make a performance. This is my job, I just want to make money." Gane also included that he has everyone asking him about the end of the year.

- Kamaru Usman's Camp Looking At Nick Diaz
Kamaru Usman's manager, Ali Abdelaziz said "If Nick Diaz beat Robbie Lawler he become the number 1 contender automatically." So we can assume the Usman's camp is in talks of a Nick Diaz fight. Calling it a battle of the generations, we'd be seeing two greats going at it. Which would also stir some controversy. This might just be for clout, as Nick hasn't had a win since 2011, a fight since 2015, and the turn out of his bout against Lawler will be very decisive. Nick Diaz would definitely bring a lot to the table in terms of PPV sale power. He's got a huge following even outside of the MMA community. Kamaru Usman will definitely be facing someone big soon. I think the answer is clear - Vicente Luque, or at least one of the other top 10 contenders Usman hasn't faced yet. Luque stands the biggest chance of being the next contender as he's #4 in UFC Welterweight P4P rankings. The fight with Nick Diaz would he cool but, it would seem that there's other hungry contenders who've earned that fight with Usman as well. What do you think? Who should Usman fight next?
- Nastiest UFC Head Kick KO's
MMA is full of nasty knockouts, the nastiest though are arguably from head-kicks. We all know who the biggest kickers are - Mirko Cro Cop, Anderson Silva, Jose Aldo, Lyoto Machida, Bas Rutten, to name a few. What about the nastiest head kick knockouts? What were some of those. Looking back we found - Rashad Evans head kick knockout over Sean Salmon. At UFC Fight Night 8, Rashad Evans caught Sean Salmon with a roundhouse kick to the head, ending him and proclaiming a victory via KO. We'll never forget this one. Mirko Cro Cop is known for his head kicks and just kicks in general. Being kicked in the ribs by Mirko Cro Cop is enough to put most grown men down on the ground. When Cro Cop faced Gabriel Gonzaga, it was actually Mirko who get the receiving end of the head kick knockout at UFC 70. UFC 129 will go down in the record books as one of the nastiest knockout nights EVER. Lyoto Machida faced off against Randy Couture, and knocked him out with a front kick to the face. Machida is known for his kicks and the last thing you want is one of those to the face. GSP vs Matt Hughes 2 at UFC 50 was phenomenal. George caught Matt with a switch kick to the head and ended him pretty early on that night. Everyone was stunned as the first time they fought, Matt ended GSP's undefeated streak and took him to the ground. Seeing GSP win the title with a headkick KO really set the pace for the rest of his career. Those are some of our favorite UFC headkick knockouts. What are yours?
