UFC Should Follow NFL's Example on HGH Testing

In the battle between performance enhancing drugs and the testing methods to catch athletes using them, the PED's have always had the lead.

With Accurate HGH Testing on the Horizon, Will Zuffa Take Notice?

Last week I wrote my own little piece on pain, and then fell into a modest depression when I read David Epstein's obviously superior work on the same topic (brilliantly summarized by Jonathan Snowden the other day). It's not that I expect to write work on par with a real (and great) journalist, but...

Herschel Walker NFL comeback: Former running back 'may even try out for football again'

That's according to the chicken mogul and budding mixed martial artist on yesterday's Strikeforce conference call: "I left not only my home in Dallas but also my company. I’ve left my company to my top guy and I’ve come out here to [San Jose] to train. I moved into a hotel in July to...

Chael Sonnen's Guilty Plea Is More Damning of the UFC Than Him

The racist, xenophobic remarks should have given them pause, but the UFC needed to sell fights. The elevated hormone levels should have put him on the shelf, but how could the UFC take away a man's living? Now, the guilty plea in a federal money laundering case should have gotten him the axe, but...
