Today on "MMA Nation" we'll be joined by ex-Strikeforce middleweight champ Cung Le, who relinquished his title this week in order to pursue an acting career, as well as UWC promoter Marcello Foran. For those that listened last week, you'll recall I was on the air for 15 minutes due to the University of Maryland football game post-game show running long. So, let's try this again. We'll talk to Foran about the upcoming UWC 7: Redemption event October 3rd at the Patriot Center in Fairfax, VA. We'll also be giving away tickets and potentially VIP passes, so this is your opportunity to call in and win.
We'll also be talking about the week in MMA: Rampage's dispute with Dana White, The Ultimate Fighter 10, Strikeforce's signing of Herschel Walker and much more.
Also, I plan on burning DCist.com at the stake on air.
"MMA Nation" airs every Saturday 7:00pm EST to 9:00pm EST on 106.7 The Fan. TODAY THE SHOW WILL BEGIN AT APPROXIMATELY 8:00 pm EST and will run until 10pm EST to accommodate University of Maryland football. To listen live over the Internet, go to The Fan's website and click "Listen Live".
I'm also now on Twitter: @mmanation.
"MMA Nation" is also available by podcast on iTunes.
Number to call: 800-636-1067

Talk to you then.

If your going to talk about Herschel Walker fighting in Strikeforce on the show can you find out if there is any dangers in allowing him to fight with the mental disorder he has?
The NFL and other outside doctors are doing studies now on the effect of concussions because of several players developing mental problems. So I can’t help but wonder if allowing someone with a serious mental disorder like multiple personality disorder to potentially suffer a concussion is safe. Not just in the short term for him but long term like with NFL players.
This isn’t about Herschel Walker specifically to me it’s a question of safety. In fact ignore the fact it is Herschel Walker and ask the question should a 47 year old man with a serious mental disorder be allowed to fight?
Just BE.
Thank you.
I can’t figure out why no one that has written about this has wondered about it. In fact out of all the reports I have read about him signing with Strikeforce no has even bothered to mention his mental disorder. Which I don’t understand because it’s common knowledge considering he wrote a book about it that came out last year I believe.
Here is a link to a transcript of an interview Herschel Walker did with Bob Woodruff if you want to use it for some reference:
Just BE.
What's been going on with the podcast?
I’m always out on Saturday nites but I look forward to hearing the podcast on Sundays… the only thing is lately they’ve been posted a few days later.
Keep up the good work, btw, it’s a great listen.
We're just a million little gods causin' rain storms, turning every good thing to rust.
