Rapper DMX is going to be taking part in Alabama Pride’s MMA “Freak Show” card on December 12th. He says “looking forward to have some fun”.
From dog-fighting to the octagon, DMX is sure to provoke some strong reactions.
He’ll be fighting Eric Martinez.
One can only hope he gets his dog-fighting ass completely whomped by Martinez.
November 21 in Las Vegas will be UFC 106. The card was just announced:
Public sale of tickets starts September 19th. Pre-sales begin September 17th.
Jason David Frank, once known to kids of a certain age as the green Power Ranger Tommy (of Might Morphin’ Power Rangers fame) is now morphing from actor to MMA fighter.
Frank signed a contract with Suckerpunch Entertainment and hopes to fight his first match soon.
He has studied martial arts since the age of 4, and in 2003 was inducted into the World Karate Union Hall of Fame. He is now 35.
Green wasn’t the only suit Frank wore on the Power Rangers. Given the fact that their faces weren’t seen, there was a lot of swapping about of costumes. But when Frank enters the UFC ring for the first time, there will be no hiding.
Jason Frank has admitted that people will want to see the Power Ranger get his ass kicked in the octagon, but intends to bring his best game when he finally gets in there. He is currently training with Melvin Guillard.
Vancouver, Canada
“It’s clearly a legitimate sport with legitimate athletes and as long as they’re working with the Vancouver council and a proper athletic commission, we have no problem with it whatsoever,” said BC Attorney General Mike DeJong.
UFC is looking toward Summer 2010 to stage its first match in Vancouver.
UFC 102 between Nogueira and Couture will be fought in Portland, OR on Saturday night.
Pro BMX legend Jamie Bestwick took a hard tumble and knocked himself out on a tailwhip 540, yet still managed to bring in the gold at the X Games 15 in Los Angeles on August 1. His two stellar runs prior to the wipeout were enough to keep him in first place. So despite being unconscious for the last moment of the competition, he still won.
His bag of magic tricks for the comp were alley-oop whips, a perfectly nailed nosedive tailwhip 5, opposite and regular flairs and consistent flow and style.
We here at All-Day wish to congratulate Jamie on his near-perfect performance. Here’s to a speedy recovery, dude.
The jury is still out on many energy drink products like Red Bull and 5-Hour Energy. The FDA rarely gets involved in these types of products (All-Day Energy Spray included) unless there is a hazard involved.
For example, the FDA got involved with HydroxyCut, the fat burning pill that was taken off the market earlier this year because of the potential for severe liver damage.
But when it comes to energy supplements, hard data isn’t easy to come by.
So what do we know about them? Well, like most things in life, everything should be consumed in moderation. There isn’t enough caffeine or B-vitamins in drinks like 5-Hour to do serious harm to anyone, when taken as directed. You suck down a dozen of them, and you’re dealing with something else altogether. But the makers are pretty clear about that on their website: they state that there’s a potential “niacin flush reaction” from Vitamin B3, but that’s very temporary.
The fact is drinks like Red Bull shouldn’t be taken in conjunction with 5-Hour Energy, which shouldn’t be capped off with All-Day Energy Spray, which shouldn’t be washed down with coffee!
All-Day Energy Spray and its Xytine formula are made from all natural ingredients that are designed to give you a boost of energy and clarity. It is not designed to keep you awake for days at a time! All-Day Energy Spray is made for people who like to play hard, but wrestlers, skaters and other extreme athletes know that taking care of their bodies with proper rest and nutrition are crucial to peak performance.
The maker of 5-Hour Energy said it best: “There is no law against stupidity and there is always that person out there that is going to push the envelope and consume too many…”
So don’t be stupid! Get plenty of rest, stay hydrated (especially important for heavy coffee drinkers and takers of diet pills, as they are very dehydrating by nature), and use energy products in moderation.
That fight rocked! I mean let’s face it - despite being totally buff, Coleman is old. And he pulled off an amazing fight! At the age of 44, he was beginning to lose energy, but came back with a surprise attack in the end, and a unanimous decision of 29-28 from the panel. I ought to send him a case of All-Day for future losses of energy!
Stephen Bonnar was the fan favorite going into the Vegas match, and Mark Coleman surprised everyone with his first win in 12 years. got on to Bonnar and stuck to him like glue until the fight was called.
The fight between Coleman and Bonnar was really the only surprise upset of the night. Everything else was pretty much expected.
George St. Pierre (I’m a fan, I admit it) held on to his title against Theago Alves of Brazil, but hurt his groin in the process. Alves would zig and GSP would zag, dancing like Muhammed Ali’s proverbial butterfly. No word on how long his injury recovery will be.
Here’s wishing Georges St. Pierre all the best, and huge congratulations to Mark Coleman for a match well fought.
