I really liked Luke’s comparison of Pride vs UFC marketing and production.

I wholeheartedly approve of the use of Mobb Deep’s “Shook Ones Pt.II.”

Really diggin it Luke. Except the guy saying Japan was more pure somehow is kinda absurd, good job calling him on it.

to the bloodyelbow crew from venezuela

hey guys, its been a while since i wrote here, because i lost my account here, but i did another one, because i think this new worth it, if you remember a long time ago i wrote to you that mma in venezuela just don´t exist because no one knows about it. it turns out that this year will take place an event called "Copa Caracas" (caracas is the capital of venezuela) that basically is a martial arts event, but this time will include 3 MMA Fights, im not sure who came up with the idea, but to me, a fan of the sport is awsome that finally mma is in my country, the best part is that some people from the ufc will come to caracas looking for talent, venezuela is next to brazil and here are a lot of good BJJ guys, in fact the guy who star BJJ in venezuela is Francisco Salvador a Black Belt Under Carlson Gracie. Any news about the event i will post it here, the article is in “ufcespanol.com” the official ufc page for latin america, and if you wanted i can translate the whole article here!! Once again Thanks for the good work you do every day in here

For those of us who missed it, is there a podcast?

Yes

WJFK is working as we speak to get my space on the website set-up. Once that happens the show will be available as a podcast and you can subscribe to it as such on iTunes.
