ON June 7th WEC 41 will present Brown Vs. Faber 2 , the “rematch” between WEC Featherweight Champion Mike Brown and Urijah Faber , the man he took the belt from. Faber who’s only lost twice in his professional career defended the WEC Championship 5 times before losing it to Brown at WEC 36 in November.
Brown has defended the title once against Leonard Garcia and proved to the WEC that he didn’t just “Get lucky” against Faber. Of course if you’ve been following Mike Brown throughout his career in MMA then you probably already knew that he’s a fierce featherweight.

I really wanted to watch Last night’s UFC 97 pay-par-view but I had family in town and I couldn’t. Upon reading the results this morning I was kind of disappointed with the results.
Some  people say that WEC fighters aren’t of the same caliber of UFC fighters. When you see some of the top WEC contenders that transitioned to the UFC after the weight class change lose, it’s almost hard to disagree.

After UFC President Dana White verbally attacked a Sherdog.com writer with some harsh comments and poorly chosen words, he came back a few days later and apologized to an extent.
He also said that he was going to stop doing the video blogs and take himself out of the lime-light. In this UFC 97 Video blog, Dana returns, though this time he speaks with a much quieter voice and keeps it pretty brief.
Does this mean that Dana will continue to do more video blogs in the future and being the mouth of war in the MMA world? We’ll find out …read more

UFC 97 is this Saturday, even thought ever pay per view event is being overshadowed right now by UFC 100, and there are some great bouts. Anderson Silva wants to make up for his “Poor performance” against Patrick Cote from last fall and he wants to defend his title and Thales Leites. The Countdown to UFC 97 started last night on Spike TV and I think it’s running all this week at 11pm Est. Chuck Liddell is out to prove that his UFC and championship days are not numbered as he takes on Mauricio Rua. I’d like to see Chuck …read more

UFC 97 has some exciting fights coming up. With Anderson Silva on the card it’s always going to be a good fight. You have Chuck Liddell, but some are wondering what he has left in him. Then there is UFC newcomer Krzystoc Soszynski pitted against Brian Stann.
So here are my simple win/lose predictions for those three fights.
