Social media has become a significant part of the sporting landscape. But few, if any, professional sports match the level of interaction and personal access provided by MMA.
In an individual competition in which nearly every athlete is chasing the same goal of financial success and championship glory, it’s important for fighters to provide insight into their lives in order to connect with fans and gain followings.
Although the life of a fighter often can be mundane and repetitive, there...

Jorge Masvidal and Ben Askren had one of the bigger rivalries this year, yet it appears that beef has been squashed.
In the lead up to their UFC 239 fight, the two traded shots at one another making their scrap one of the most highly anticipated bouts on the card. But, the fight itself did not last long, as Masvidal knocked out Askren in five seconds with a flying knee. After the bout, “Gamebred” continued his trash talk towards “Funky.”
It was a disappointing loss for Askren but he...

With another night of UFC action in the rearview mirror, it’s time to look forward, put on a pair of Sean Shelby and Mick Maynard’s shoes, and play UFC matchmaker for UFC 245’s key winning fighters.

It’s safe to say that Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington are no longer friends.
It’s pretty obvious by now that former training partners Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington don’t share a lot of love any more. Covington went scorched earth on everyone in his wake leading into UFC 245, and that included a guy that has been on his side for a long time in Gamebred. So it should come as no surprise that when Colby came up short at UFC 245, Masvidal...
LAS VEGAS – After a win at UFC 245, Octagon veteran Matt Brown admits to having a bit of ring rust, calls for quick turnaround at the promotion’s March 28 event in Columbus, Ohio, and talks about getting the help of UFC Hall of Famer Mark Coleman in camp for his fight with Ben Saunders.
LAS VEGAS – Irene Aldana isn’t one to try and call her shots. That won’t change, even after her bonus-earning knockout of Ketlen Vieira at UFC 245.
While she feels comfortable declaring she’s ready for a title shot, Aldana told media backstage she doesn’t want to “pressure anyone.” In her eyes, the UFC makes the fights – not her.
“I don’t ask for fights, and I just wait for the UFC to ask me for a fight – to make a proposal for a fight,” Aldana said. “I think I’m...
