Lytle's fight is next week by the way, i got the date wrong.

Not sure what happened with Shamrock. This bareknuckle thing is strange though, there's been a few fighters linked to it but a lot of seems to fall through. Lytle can't be making more from this than a return to MMA would surely?

has anyone seen the new of former Bellator Featherweight Champ Daniel Straus being involved in a pretty serious motorbike accident over Christmas? Apparently being told initially he may never walk again, he's back on his feet already and is planning his comeback. Sad news, but a crazy story. Straus is the man.

This is a few weeks old now but I'm only just seeing it. 

Jean Claude Van Damme kicking Cody Garbrandt in the gob...

Beautiful. Even better that it clearly bothered Cody so much :laugh:

He seems to see the funny side. They look to be having a very light/no contact spar and JCVD accidentally kicks him in the face then is very sorry.

 

Seagal probably would have claimed he KO'd Cody.

Haha. Yeah, two things from that: 1) JCVD has some legit kicks! 2) Cody acts like such a baby ... obvious genuine mistake and he instantly loses it. What a tit.

Not to mention it's JCVD! He was a star before Cody was born. Should consider it an honour to be kicked in the head by him.

In all seriousness, though, how petulant. How do you go into a sparring match with one of the most famous and loved martial arts movie stars ever, and end up treating a clear accident like a personal slight?

I don't think Garbrandt is as horrible as he's often made out to be; his bark is much worse than his bite, but FFS - his bark is really fucking exasperating.

Both random, and shit in equal measure...but every time I see a picture of Rag'n'Bone Man, the first thing that springs to mind is when Conor McGregor gets bored again and decides he fancies a crack at Stipe Miocic.

Conor is ringside to watch this Russian MMA fight involving a midget. Looks like he has put on some weight to. Could see him fighting at Heavy in the future.

Will Brooks has been released by the UFC and has joined the PFL for their $1M tournament, according to his social media accounts.

Brooks was a bust in the UFC, bit of a shame. Wondering what the PFL thing will be like, they are laying low and are primed to make some kind of annoucement, could be good.

When he makes his way back to the UFC, let's have him move up a division, and book Will Brooks vs. Phil Brooks. We need more discussions of CM Punk fighting in MMA.

There's a new series added to Netflix which I noticed last night..'Bare Knuckle Fight Club'. Apparently a docuseries following fighters/promoters in the UK bare knuckle scene. I haven't watched any yet but my wife is out on Saturday night so if it's not completely shit I'll likely plough through it then.
