Brian Stann explains his injury that kept him from fighting Hector Lombard at UFC on Fox 4: "It’s a grade two separation of my right AC joint, which is what I’m feeling right now, and that’s a 6 to 8 week recovery, no surgery luckily but you know hopefully I can get this thing healed up as soon as possible and get my range of motion back, but for right now, I can’t even pick my arm up." "It’s happened once before in both shoulders, it’s a really common football injury so it’s happened to me in high school, but it has not happened before. I was actually sparring and UFC heavyweight Shawn Jordan, we were against the cage and I stuffed the takedown and he went for a hip toss, and when he threw for the hip throw he actually landed directly on my shoulder, all 275 pounds of him, which was not really intended. I think he slipped, he knew not to land on me if he was to land a takedown but it just happened and my shoulder didn’t really stand a chance. I landed directly on the shoulder with his hip right on my arm, and you could hear the crack right away. It’s one of those feelings where you know when you’re hurt, and you know the difference of when you’re injured, and unfortunately I was injured and you know, the x-rays and the doctors confirmed everything that day."

@MMAMATTY no not at all. We are contracted to fight at 195. Just cuz we weighed in diff doesn't mean anyone missed weight. All though I can understand why ppl would think and say what they do. Its all good tho I expect it @PappyKnuckles ppl read a lot of diff things. Too bad we had contracts that said 195. So I personally don't care what the media say about anything. They talk just to talk.

Do you want to increase testing? "Yes. We're going to do our own testing, order these guys into [a lab]; we're sorting it out now. You have to do this to save the sport. You can't have these guys fighting on this stuff." - Dana White http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-dana-white-ufc-qa-20120522,0,2715666.story

This is Sadaharu Tanikawa. As I already announced last April, trademark right of K-1 has been transferred to K-1 Global Holdings / EMCOM and I resigned the position of K-1’s event producer. Today I need to inform you another important fact. I received a notice of a petition for bankruptcy of FEG from Tokyo district court in April 10th. This lawsuit was made by Golden Glory / Knockout Investment. The team leader Bas Boon, who had outstanding money from FEG occurred at K-1 WGP FIANL 2010 and Dynamite 2010, applied an application for the bankruptcy. K-1’s right has been transferred to EMCOM but most of the debt was left to FEG. I had been trying to pay off the debt but after becoming bankrupt, there are no ways left to carry it on. I was working with people who Boon and EMCOM brought to pay off the debt but Boon changed his mind and suddenly pushed us to bankruptcy. This was surprising to me and I didn’t understand why he had to do that. Somehow he needed to make that action for some reasons. After appearing 2 times in court, the district court delivered us a judgment of bankruptcy. An official receiver was designated and bankruptcy proceeding has already started. In the next procedure, assets and debt are officially adjusted and then reported to creditors. I truly apologize to all creditors. I will submit all property I possess. I will sacrifice all my life to compensate for this. After the judgment was delivered, I spoke to Mr. Boon. He was saying like "I have no grudge against you, Tanikawa. I know you have been working hard to protect K-1. I know you have no money left on you. But I just have another purpose that I had to make this action and have FEG become bankrupt". I’m not on the position for blaming Mr. Boon. So I think I should not make any statements on this. I only would like to apologize to all the people who have supported K-1 for long time. I once promise to make up to the people in the rest of my life. This is my last message on this website. I wish new K-1 best. Once again, I appreciate all the big support you have ever given to us.

Steven Seagal, Hollywood actor and martial arts master, and Anderson Silva, middleweight champion, climb into the ring. The challenge is no longer a fight in the UFC, the trendy mixed martial arts championship. It's the last beer in the bar, tells story of Mariana Barbosa published in Folha this Wednesday. Parodying classic fight scenes in movies, the new campaign for Budweiser in Brazil, which airs on the last weekend of May, is a superproduction, directed by Argentinean Armando Bo, "Biutiful" and "The Ultimate Elvis" . Sort of a preview for the big fight in Las Vegas UFC, Anderson Silva against Chael Sonnen, in July, the film is the first episode of a saga that the brewer AmBev intends to launch during the event. The company does not disclose figures of the campaign, but the superproduction gives an idea of the bet that the brand does for Brazil.

So I contacted @ebay, and they informed that the last real bidder was the one who wanted to pay $5.00 . I knew that belt wasn't worth shit!— Vinny Magalhaes (@VinnyMMA) May 15, 2012

"I have to be honest, if there’s someone to blame, it’s me. Even though it was my expo, I had one guy working on it and he was good at organizing it and putting it together. The only thing he’s not good at is dealing with fighters. From what I understand, Junior called Cesar Gracie’s room the night previously at midnight and said Braulio Estima would be 10 pounds overweight. You have to understand, Nick Diaz was already giving up too much fighting that caliber of fighter in BJJ. For Nick to take the match, it shows the kind of guts he has. It ended up turning out the way that it did because the guy dealing with the fighters is an amateur, and he didn’t understand the emotions the athletes go through."
