Boxer Bernard Hopkins is tired of his sport being compared to MMA, mostly because the whole gay porn thing. Oh yeah, that…
Everybody is different. I don’t want to watch two grown men wrestling with panties on. I’m from the hood, we don’t play that. To me, I’m not buying a ticket to watch two grown [...]

MMA gay porn for straight guys?
A straight guy’s top MMA hotties
Quinn Wolfe goes to my gym in the Silver Lake section of L.A. Quinn and I somehow got on the topic of how hot some Mixed Martial Artists are. He started giving me his list, then added, “But I’m straight. Will that hurt my credibility?” It will only enhance it, I said, giving a unique [...]
Promoter: MMA nothing but ‘homosexuals’
Boxing promoter Bob Arum criticized fans of mixed martial arts as being “skinhead white guys” and the athletes like “homosexuals” rolling around on the ground. Arum, 77, made these remarks in an interview with Fanhouse (video below). Said Arum:
For me, and people like me, [MMA] is not something they ever care to see. They’ve [...]
When women do a no-no in sports
Last weekend I missed the MMA championship bout between Gina Carano and Cyborg Santos, but watched what I could find on YouTube. The steel-cage event headlined at the HP Pavilion in San Jose, was billed as a breakthrough for women, and aired on Showtime pay-per-view. Now controversy rages. On AOL Fanhouse, [...]
How impressive is jumping out of a pool?
A video is making the rounds that is turning lots of heads. It’s of MMA fighter B.J. Penn jumping out of a 3-foot-deep pool. Next weekend I’m going to track down a pool and try it myself. Is it that impressive? I’m assuming it is, since so many seem blown away by it. Check out [...]
UFC fighter Brock Lesnar is a jackass
I have had a strong dislike for former WWE wrestler and now Ultimate Fighting Championship star Brock Lesnar after he told ESPN the Magazine in 2004, “I don’t like gays. Write that down in your little notebook. I don’t like gays.”
So it was no surprise to see what a total jackoff he was during and [...]
Bruno scores big, avoids wrestling beatdown
“Hi, I’m Bruno.” This Friday, the gayest movie of the year is released; I saw it tonight and just loved it. It’s a relatively short movie, but in those 85 minutes I laughed as hard as I’d ever laughed. Many of it was uncomfortable laughter, but when he talks about the lips of his Christian [...]
Dana White: UFC would embrace gay fighter
Dana White, the head of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, says that fighters and fans of the sport would embrace an openly gay fighter. This is the same Dana White who apologized recently for using an anti-gay slur. In an interview (video below) following the May 23 UFC card, White was asked about how an openly [...]
Another hollow apology…from Dana White
Add the apology from UFC’s Dana White to the immeasurably long list of non-apologies (he used the ‘faggot’ in a rant earlier this week). While a simple “I got it wrong, I’m sorry” would have sufficed, White decided to go the “You don’t understand me and you got it wrong” route. GLAAD seems to have [...]
UFC’s Dana White to apologize for anti-gay slurs
Dana White, the president of the Ultimate Fighting Championship mixed martial arts organization, will apologize for an anti-gay slur he unleashed in a video while pissed off at a journalist. Ted Rybka of GLAAD’s sports arm spoke to White and just posted this:
I just spoke with UFC President Dana White. White expressed remorse for a [...]
MMA fighter opts for ‘urine therapy’
Health nuts and athletes can come up with some interesting ways to stay in shape, but rising MMA star Lyoto Machida from Brazil just might have everyone else beat. From Tatame Magazine:
Besides telling all his preparation routine, the undefeated fighter revealed a curious tradition in his family, a secret until then: urine therapy. Once in [...]
Dudes dig ultimate fighters
Cale Yarbrough is a University of Georgia student and mixed martial artist who appeared on Spike TV’s “Ultimate Fighter.” You would think this would make him popular with the ladies, but it’s the guys that hit on him, his roommate told a school newspaper.
“A lot of guys. A lot of drunk guys,” Yarbrough said. “A [...]
MMA fighter arrested in gay bar
MMA fighter Jon Koppenhaver, aka “War Machine,” was arrested in Las Vegas for allegedly attacking security in a gay bar there. He was being escorted out of Krave Nightclub, which patrons described as “gay but straight-friendly,” after allegedly causing a hubbub in the bar when he turned on security. They held him until Las Vegas [...]
Kanyon rips Lesnar’s “dumb luck”
Openly gay former pro wrestler Chris Kanyon (right) has become well-known after his career for 1) being gay and 2) for not pulling punches when it comes to talkin about pro wrestling. The latest in Kanyon’s sites: Brock Lesnar, who a couple weeks ago won a big fight on UFC. On Myspace, Kanyon rips into [...]
‘Goofy Homo’ knocks out Kimbo Slice
Seth Petruzelli, a last-minute replacement, needed only 14 seconds to knock out previously unbeaten Kimbo Slice on Saturday night in a mixed martial arts fight. What was strange was what Deadspin found on Petruzelli’s MySpace page, where he described himself as a “goofy homo.”
I AM A GOOFY HOMO THAT DOESNT ACT LIKE A FIGHTER AT [...]
