MMA

I have to admit to you all that I am becoming more and more of a fan of Mixed Martial Arts. Over the past 2-3 years I have watched UFC Fight Night and UFC Unleashed on Spike TV. Several months ago I ran across the Big O and Dukes Radio Show on WJFK in D.C. As i was listen the topic of the moment was MMA, Chad's love of it, and the guest was one Mr. Luke Thomas who host MMA Nation, Saturdays on WJFK, as well as running the top shelf MMA sight Bloody Elbow. As they talked about MMA I became more and more interested. Growing up as a boxing fan, I loved hearing the enthusiasm and excitement regarding MMA. The same excitement I heard from my grad dad and his cronies as they talked Ali, Frazier, and Marciano. I was totally pumped to hear about MMA and its evolution from underground human cock fights to a multi-million dollar sport that it is today.

If you are in the greater D.C. area and want to see MMA in person I would suggest you check out UWC Man 'o War event at the Patriot Center. I wish I was able to attend in person, but money is tight. So if any of you reading this can help me out with a couple of tickets, I would be grateful. I have never seen a MMA fight in person and I am itching too! Hey Luke, Big O, Dukes hook a fellow fan up...please!

Before I yell Book 'Em Dano, check out one of the greatest movies ever. Book 'Em Dano!
