Greatest Night in MMA History

Sunday, July 20, 2008 1:51

As I try to calm down from the greatest night in MMA History it is clear how far we have come. Could anyone have predicted that all of our wishes would have come true? From the Free to Paid Fights we saw it all. If you chose to only watch one, you made a HUGE mistake. Correct it Now by Reading Mat's Blog and watching the videos.

Affliction Banned: Sylvia versus Fedor

Thursday, July 10, 2008 5:19

As Tim Sylvia gears up for the biggest fight of his life, he took the opportunity to sit down with Mark Chalifoux of the Baltimore Sun. In the Q&A he made some really interesting comments including: MMA Stomping Grounds: Can Affliction compete with the UFC? Sylvia: I don’t think Affliction is even considering competing with the UFC. They are just looking to put on quality shows, pay the fighters well and have a good time doing it because they can. MMA Stomping Grounds: Do you have friends in the UFC who are coming to you with complaints now that you’re currently out of the organization? Sylvia: I was with the UFC for five years. I have a lot of friends in the UFC, eh, you know what, no comment. I eventually want to fight back there some day and I left on good terms. MMA Stomping Grounds: What appealed to you about Affliction? Sylvia:They are friends of mine, they had six of the top 10 heavyweights in the world, and with me they have seven. That’s the best place for me to be to fight all the best fighters out there, so I have to be there.
