SIM "THE BEAR TAMER" SEMI-FINALS MATCH AT UFC FAN EXPO:

Watch Pride and WAMMA Heavyweight Champion, Fedor Emelianenko compete in his national sport of Russian (Combat) Sambo. I think it's very cool that Fedor has the national pride and support of his country and President to represent his Team.

Video of Gilbert "El Nino" Melendez, Strikeforce standout and 6-time Grapplers Quest Champion from the May 2008 tournament at The Sports Center in Las Vegas. It is a great honor to showcase such amazing Professional MMA fighters compete on a regular basis to challenge themselves without the element of striking to improve their grappling ability and confidence.

Just wanted to report back on Tuesday night's fantastic Concert to raise money for Autism featured Jerry Seinfeld and Bruce Springsteen on stage together at Carnegie Hall for the very first time. It was amazing to see superstars coming out to support such a worthy cause, Bruce played "If I Fall Behind" for all the families and loved ones with Autism, seems like a perfect song.

I just wanted to let all my fans know publicly, that I was forced to withdraw from my upcoming fight on Dec 5th vs Frank Edgar. My back has been a problem since my last fight vs Josh Neer, and I did not give it the proper rest it deserved. I am now dealing with 3 herniated discs in my back. I know no fighter ever goes into a fight 100%. I fought with knee injuries, hand injuries, and many bumps and bruises and I have fought through it, but it was impossible to fight through this back injury. It took me over a week to come to terms with the fact that I would have to pull out of this fight.
