Dana White Says Jon Jones Still A Year Away From Title Contention
As any regular reader of MMA Fix has probably noted by now, Jon “Bones” Jones continues to rise up our ‘Who’s the Man’ index, and certainly Sunday’s win over Brandon Vera, only furthered this (and yes, we’re aware this admiration is now bordering dangerously close to ‘nauseating’). At any rate, by taking out another notable [...]
Jon Jones Credits Greg Jackson for Fight Ending Elbow
If anyone ever tells you that ground fighting is for ‘pussies,’ or that ‘sh-t never happens’ on the mat (you know, the kind of dude that starts booing two seconds after a fight hits the floor), feel free to introduce them to footage of Jon “Bones” Jones’ savage elbow to Brandon Vera last night. We’re [...]
Jon Jones Has No Doubts That He Can Beat Brandon Vera
As any regular reader here nows, we’re pretty damn excited about tonight’s UFC on Versus main event tilt between Jon “Bones” Jones and Brandon “The Truth” Vera; both guys are reedonkously skilled and judging by yesterday’s weigh-ins, things have got a wee bit personal between the two lads (check out the vid here- props to [...]
A Look at the Workouts of Jon “Bones” Jones
Any regular reader of MMA Fix knows that Jon “Bones” Jones continues to steadily rise up our ‘Now That’s What’s Up’ index, after all, this is a guy that has tossed studs like Matt Hamill and Stephan Bonnar through the air like beach balls (not to mention flooring the latter with a spinning elbow). That’s some [...]
Brandon Vera Predicting Stoppage in Bout With Jon Jones
We’re extremely excited about the upcoming March 21st tilt between Brandon “The Truth” Vera and Jon “Bones” Jones; not only is it a good match-up and on cable TV through Versus (meaning more dough for beer), Jones is so effing exciting to watch, even his hands getting taped is highlight reel material (that takes moves [...]
Brandon Vera Not Interested in Fighting Chuck Liddell
Ok fine. If you’ve been following MMA Fix throughout this week, yes, we’ve been gravitating towards fighter quotes that are less than complimentary towards their fellow Octagon competitors. Whatever, we’re cynical pricks; aren’t we all? Be honest…
The latest comment to catch our eye comes from Brandon “The Truth” Vera, who due to his nick name, [...]
Brandon Vera: “I Thought I Won”
Last night’s main event bout between Randy Couture and Brandon Vera may not have been the most exciting bout ever, but due to the fact it included one of the more intriguing figures in all of professional sports, namely the 46 year-old “Natural,” you better have been heavily sedated if you weren’t pumped up at [...]
Brandon Vera Jumped at Chance to Fight Randy Couture
After disposing of his first 4 UFC opponents in short order, (one of which was Frank Mir- you may recall the bloody beat down) the fanfare surrounding Brandon Vera was on it’s way to GSP levels. But, after dropping 3 of his next 4 bouts the chit-chat surrounding “The Truth” quickly went from ‘that guy’s [...]
Randy Couture Talks Future, Upcoming Bout with Brandon Vera
After competing just once in 2008, it’s pretty damn sweet that Randy “The Natural” Couture is fighting for the second time in less than 3 months on November 14th, when the legend takes on Brandon Vera at UFC 105 in Manchester, England. What’s even better is that for us fans in North America, we’ll get to [...]
It’s Official: Couture vs. Vera at UFC 105
Yesterday we said that the internet’s latest ‘it’ rumor, that Randy Couture would fight Brandon Vera at the upcoming November 14th UFC 105, sounded pretty damn plausible. (Like when your buddy tells you he only watches the weigh-ins when Gina Carano’s fighting- that’s extremely plausible) Well today, the promotion has confirmed that indeed Couture will [...]
