Throwing Boulders

Just touched down in L.A. town after spending the week in the fabulous city of Lost Wages (Las Vegas for you smart dumb niggas). It was a hectic but productive week and our efforts produced the TUF Finale in The Pearl at The Plams, one of the best fight cards of the year. It was an amazing event and eventhough there was another fight in town (y'know, they get their own HBO show and circle each other throwing 10 punches a round...pffffffft...congrats to Floyd though) the big fireworks were definitely going off in the Octagon.


you may get tickets, you may buy the pay per view, but you dont got the green all access pass



the squared circle, where dreams are found and shattered at the same time



Jonathon Goulet vs. Paul Georgieff
Goulet came out quick and pushed the action. It was his last fight unded his current contract and he was eager to impress Joe Silva & Dana White. Goulet scored a quick takedown and then found himself in the full mount position where he began to ground and pound. It wasnt long before Georgieff turtled and gave Goulet his back and Goulet ended the fight with a rear naked choke. Congrats to Goulet & David Loiseau for their great efforts. These are two of the dopest muh' fuckers ive met in the organization and im happy to see them bounce back after Goulet's loss to Luke Cummo in September. Now go get GSP ready to kill Hughes and i'll see you pimps back in Vegas in a couple weeks

Dorian Price vs. Roman Mitichyan
First off, let me say Dorian Price hold your head up. You got a long career in MMA ahead of you, one loss aint gonna define you pimp. There's not much to say about this fight, Dorian was hoping for a stand up fight, while Roman, from Karo Parisian and Manny Gamburian Judo camp, wanted it to go to the ground which is exactly where it ended up. Roman took down Dorian as soon as the bell rang. There was a transition and Dorian quickly found himself in Roman's Heel Hook and was submitted in 23 seconds of the first round.

John Kolosci vs. Matt Arroyo
This fight truly displayed Arroyo's talent. It started off as a stand up war but as soon it went to the ground Arroyo dominated dislocating not one, but both of Kolosci's arms. It was a great fight that ended with Kolosci being submitted to an Arroyo arm bar.

Troy Mandaloniz vs. Richie Hightower
This was a standup war that was pretty much dominated by the taller and longer Mandaloniz, who won by K.O.


Dan Barrera vs. Ben Saunders

Billy Miles vs. George Sotiropoulos


Jon Koppenhaver vs. Jared Rollins
War Machine vs. J.Roc was one of the best fights of the year and also earned the FIGHT OF THE NIGHT award which gave each fighter an extra $15,000 to their purse. Non-stop action and striking in this one and it turned out to be one of the bloodiest battles in a long while. Rollins has major potential in the game after a lil more training. Koppenhaver is a beast and will shake up the welterweight division in the very near future. The fight ended with a war machine K.O. of J.Roc.


Tommy Speer vs. Mac Danzig
This fight pitted the bigger stronger Speer, fighting out of the Miletich camp, against the favorite of the show, Mac Danzig. Mac's truly a lightweight and many thought that Speer's size would carry him to a victory. People were sorely mistaken. Mac quickly took Speer to the ground and submitted him to a rear naked choke soon after. The victory gives Danzig the TUF6 title and the six figure UFC contract. Congrats Mac, i look forward to working with you again in the near future.

Clay Guida vs. Roger Huerta
This was my fight of the year. The fight pitted the highly energetic Guida vs. the undefeated Huerta. Guida won the first two rounds in this war. Non-stop standup action and plenty of transitions on the ground. Huerta almost was submitted to a rear naked choke but displayed great patience and finally shook out of it. The third round had Guida needing to just survive to get the win, but lucky for Huerta, and the UFC fans, thats not Clays style. He came out and pushed the action like it was the beginning of the 1st round, but was eventually rocked and then submitted to rear naked choke by the scrappy and crafty Huerta.

Got this official event poster autographed by every fighter in the event. I may raffle this off, ebay it, or just give it away to a lucky person. stay tuned



And last, but definitely not least, shout out to my amazingly hot and sexy lady for the wank material for the week. Y'all cats gotta be jealous that your female aint working with a body like this. Face and name withheld to protect the gorgeously innocent. Love you babe



It was a long week, too long sometimes, but it turned out a great event. Hope you, the fans, enjoyed because there is a lot of hard work done by dedicated people throughout the week to give you a great event. Im off to El Norte now to spend some vacation before i do it all over again on the FIGHT OF THE YEAR on December 29th. Get ready snitches.
