This Week in Dumb MMA Stuff

Welcome to Leg Kick TKO, a MMA blog that’s less legitimate than a Bob Sapp fight.

Fights – Once again, there were a fair number of events this past week, and at least two cool moments out of all the fights.

UFC on Fox 4 was a very entertaining card (Free MMA best MMA!).  Here’s what was the most impressive.

Moraga vs. Gomez


Flyweight fights are always fun, even if they don’t wear their traditional gnome outfits.  Moraga finishes off Gomez with strikes against the cage, proving that Flyweights pack some power.

Check out a lot more fights and even a piece of news or two after the jump!

UFC on Fox 4 Primer

Welcome to Leg Kick TKO, a MMA blog that's less relevant than Harold Howard!

From time to time, I’ll try to provide a quick rundown and primer on upcoming MMA events.  Basically let you know who these jerks are, what they do, if there’s anything particularly hilarious that’s happened to them in a fight.

This Saturday, the UFC is back on Fox for a night of free fights with an interesting stipulation for the two co-main events.  Whoever wins in the more impressive fashion will be the next number one contender to the Light Heavyweight title, taking on the winner of Jon Jones and Dan Henderson (Please, please, please win Dan!).

UNDER CARD

"Useless" Ulysses Gomez vs. John Moraga
  • Gomez's Style - Brazilian jiu-jitsu
  • Moraga's Style - Wrestling
  • What will probably happen?  I have no idea!  I don't know either fighter, but I've heard of Gomez, so I'll say he gets the win by submission.


Manvel "Anvil" Gamburyan vs. Michihiro Omigawa
  • Gamburyan's Style - Judo
  • Omigawa's Style - Judo
  • What will happen?  I'm going to guess/hope Omigawa takes it, mainly because I once read a description of him as being a cross between Manny Pacquiao and a Carebear.

Phil De Fries vs. Oli Thompson
  • De Fries' Style - Brazilian jiu-jitsu
  • Thompson's Style - World's Strongest Man
  • What will happen?  De Fries will submit Thompson in a display of laughable English offensive wrestling against nonexistent English defensive wrestling.

Josh "Fluke" Grispi vs. Rani Yahya
  • Grispi's Style - Submissions
  • Yahya's Style - Brazilian jiu-jitsu
  • What should happen?  Yahya will submit Grispi

Phil "Mr. Wonderful" Davis vs. Wagner "Caldeirao" Prado
  • Davis' Style - Wrestling
  • Prado's Style - Muay Thai kickboxing
  • What should happen?  Davis will submit Prado, hopefully with another Mr. Wonderful

Cole "Magrinho" Miller vs. Nam Phan
  • Miller's Style - Brazilian jiu-jitsu
  • Phan's Style - Boxing
  • What should happen?  Miller with a submission victory.
Check out the main card breakdown with much more thought and effort put into it after the jump!
