Excited about an upcoming fight? Want to make predictions, or just give people a heads-up that there are some fights on? We can do it here.

(Also a good place to complain, dicuss, and agrue about the outcomes)

Never heard of him. Apparently he's a Springfield guy.

A source close to the situation revealed the news to MMABay earlier today.

Johnson enters the house with an 8-4 record and hails from Springfield, Missouri. He currently trains at the Gracie Barra Fightclub alongside Zak Cummings and is the former Midwest Fight League & Xtreme Cage Fighting champion. He holds a win over Clay French while coming up short against UFC veteran, Joe Brammer.

The reality show kicks off on SPIKE TV on September 15th with coaches, Georges St. Pierre and Josh Koscheck going head to head for twelve weeks on our screens. Stay tuned to MMABay for further announcements.

So Jones gets the winner of Bader/Nog?

I hope it's Bader

I also noticed one of my favorite fighters, Phil Davis, is scheduled to face Tim Boetsch. How good is Boetsch? Not much of a name in UFC...oh well

Remember the name Daniel Cormier, btw. He's gonna be a good one---though he's already 31

No surprise Bones gets the winner of that fight...too bad the UFC is scared to feed Forrest to him, thought they might make that fight.
[Reply]

Jones also said he got the impression from Dana that if he wins his next two fights, he'll get a title shot.
[Reply]

Makes sense...he beats Bader/Nog and moves on to fight the winner of Machida and Rampage perhaps?

Either way, I don't see anyone stopping Bones in the foreseeable future....dude is legit.

Shine fights and MFC are on right now.

Shine is hilarious and pathetic.

[Reply]

LOL the first two prelims are GREAT. and this one is funny. Frye hilarious as always talking about balls on his hat. and talking about his Fight vs Takayama in PRIDE comparing them.

Keith Jardine took another beat down this weekend. That guy has had a rough time getting it together lately.
[Reply]

Yeah he has, I've always liked Jardine and can't understand the hate. He always goes out to put on a show and either does well or get knocked out. After last night I do agree with his cut though, he needs to string together some wins before coming back to the big show. Jackson will sort him out and figure out something for him. All his older fights in KOTC were grappling because he is a good grappler so maybe they go that route next.
