MMA Power rankings: The Middle weights

 Terrible day. Have to take a detour on the way to work, then get a ticket because I rush the other way. The work day is fine, but when I go to submit the MW power rankings the whole computer shuts down. I really don’t feel like listing descriptions again (especially because I was really happy with the first ones, and I just think I’ll miss some points now), but the WW list will be done in full. So without further ado here’s who I believe are the most talented MW fighters in the world today:

Blogkick: Important Upcoming Fights

Fedor Emelianenko vs Antonio Silva
This may be one of the most important fights of Fedor’s career and it has massive implications. A loss to Silva would be catastrophic for M1 and Strikeforce. Fedor is still one of the biggest draws in MMA and almost everyone wants to see him fight, whether you want him to win or lose. This will be the fight that will give us an indicator of where Fedor’s skills are at. There are an overwhelming number of fans that believe Fedor is on a downward spiral as a fighter and

Blogkick: The Top 10 Fighters of All Time

Now I won’t even begin to preach this list as matter of fact. As with more or less any top 10 list, it is completely subjective and unique to the person making it, and there is no list that everyone will be able to agree on, especially on such a debatable topic as the one I’m about to delve into. However, i have tried to be as fair as possible and take each fighter’s accomplishments into account with as equal measure as his counterparts. And that is mostly what my list is attempting to reflect:

Blogkick: Stupid MMA Quotes

After numerous articles outlining various opinions on fighters’ rankings and predictions on upcoming fights I feel like it’s time for a change of pace in the Blogkick third season. This article is a compilation of my favourite “stupid quotes” in MMA.
First on the list is Ken Shamrock. After weeks of Tito Ortiz getting the better of Shamrock throughout the first season of TUF and in the build up to their first fight Shamrock finally exploded at the pre-fight press conference with

BlogKick: Do you remember your first time?

I actually remember it like it was yesterday. Let me take you in a trip in my time machine, back to the year 1994. I was young and naive, didn’t know too much the world yet. Growing up as a young kid in Vancouver, Britsh Columbia, Canada at the time I was a big Martial Arts movie buff. I loved watching movies with Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Jean Claude Van-Damme, Steven Seagal just to name a few. I loved playing Street Fighter II and Mortal Kombat on my Sega Genesis (or Megadrive for you people not from North

BlogKick: What Does it mean to be an Elite Striker?

You hear it a lot. We’ve heard it even more than usual last Saturday for the Fight for The Troops 2 card, Joe Rogan talking about how so and so is an “elite striker”. What exactly is an elite striker and who should be considered an elite striker? I’ve thought about this for a long time prior to last Saturday’s UFC event. You hear this phrase thrown around so loosely in the world of Mixed Martial Arts. Now, I’m not comparing the sport of Mixed Martial Arts to other Combat Sports like Boxing or Muay Thai / K
