 Georges “Rush” St. Pierre meeting Jon Fitch, along with the lightweight eliminator clash between Kenny Florian and Roger Huerta, will give hardcore fans plenty to get excited about. The problem the UFC is going to face however (and I’ve been predicting it for a while) is that because they have so many dates booked to capitalize on the gravy train created by the success of The Ultimate Fighter TV series, the top-draw, money making talent pool is starting to thin out and the undercards, and possibly the main events in the not to distant future, are starting to show the effects.

 The weirdest thing happened…I just could not get interested in this past season of The Ultimate Fighter. I have been a huge fan of the show since it’s beginning in January 2005. I remember Ryan Bennett calling me up and telling me how great the show was after seeing a screening of the first episode. From that very first show, with Chris Leben meting out his territorial spritzings, I was hooked. And when I first heard that the UFC had announced Jackson and Griffin as the head coaches I was excited. I agreed with the casting; it seemed logical.Killer Butterfly & Human Crucifix 3 DVD Set by Nino Schembri Now Available!

 This rematch is nothing personal, only business…ALL business. And, other than Matt Serra’s teammate Pete Sell referring to the former champion/challenger as a “mental midget”, there are no tricks, no theatrics or showboating here. In their hearts, both men know this is a fight for survival. Whether they admit it or not, they both STILL have something to prove: Matt Serra-was his first shocking victory a fluke and Georges St. Pierre-can he shake the post KO victim curse of nerves and/or falling into the resulting tentativeness/inconsistency?Budovideos Review Contest Winner!

Unlike most jiu-jitsu instructional books, Garcia leaves no stone unturned. Not only does he show you how to sweep your opponent using the X-Guard from nearly every control position, he shows you how to do it both with a gi and without.

(2008-03-05)
 Mauricio “Tinguinha” Mariano has done a lot of work for you. Besides playing a large role in the creation of many of the modern open guard moves while a student at the Gracie Barra Academy in Rio, he has also laid them all out for the benefit of everyone. In Tinguinha’s widely popular Ultimate Open Guard Series, Tinguinha takes all levels of practitioners through the Spider Guard, Sitting Up Guard, and Cross Guard, and later he puts them all together in one of the most dynamic volumes to date- The Extreme Open Guard.
UFC 82: Pride of A Champion
(2008-02-27)
 This is a match I have personally been waiting for and advocating for years. Believe me, I am excited that it is finally here. If you leave Henderson’s teammate Matt “The Law” Lindland out of the equation (and sadly the UFC seems to have done just that, which to me is the sport’s loss), Anderson Silva versus Dan Henderson is the greatest middleweight fight that MMA has to offer or could produce at this moment in time. Expectation-wise this ranks up there with the first match of Fedor Emelianenko and Rodrigo “Minotauro” Nogueira (Pride 25) or the second clash between Georges St. Pierre and Matt Hughes (UFC 65). Click here to read the entire previewTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Guards with Telles and Russell…
(2008-02-01)
 In Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, the turtle historically has been seen as a conduit to either recovering guard or getting your guard passed (or possibly being submitted). However, over the last few years a lot of these views have changed as the turtle has become an offensive staging ground for sweeps, reversals, and even some submissions. While some have been slow to accept this changing paradigm shift about the turtle, others have embraced the unique aspects of this game. Nowhere else is this change so obvious than in the two Turtle specific volumes by Josh Russell and Eduardo Telles. Following is a cross comparison review of both instructionals where there can only be one winner and it isn’t the hare. Read the full postUFC 81: Breaking Point

 I’m not going to read the cue card of all Lesner’s non-mixed martial art athletic achievements.

(2008-01-16)
 To me Penn is the clear favorite here. I know Stevenson has more experience ‘on paper’ (28-7 compared to BJ’s 11-4-1). But come on, BJ Penn submitted Takanori Gomi, Matt Hughes and Jens Pulver and won decisions over Matt Serra and Renzo Gracie. And even in the rare occasions that he lost, the opposition always paid a heavy price (and probably doesn’t look forward to a rematch). Proof of this is in evidence in the two highest profile losses the Prodigy has had – against Matt Hughes (in their second fight) and Georges St. Pierre. In both matches Penn was in complete control early with that brutal, in-the-pocket standup style that he most likely acquired at birth. Both matches appeared to be his, but both slipped through his fingers. Why? Read on…New DVDs in Stock!

When he made his debut in Cage Rage (UK) on September 11, 2004 it was against a man who was feared on the street as well as in the cage, England’s “Lighting” Lee Murray. Murray had just KO’d The Spider’s then-training partner Jose "Pele" Landy and played the UK versus Brazil angle to almost disrespectful heights at the pre-Anderson fight weigh-in.

UFC 75: Champion vs Champion - Preview by Stephen Quadros
(2007-09-04)
 Champion versus champion…that sounds great on paper. And it IS true to a certain extent. But it seems that this will be one of only three possible “unification” matches between the UFC® and “the organization formerly known as Pride”. Heavyweight Fedor Emelianenko and ”lightweight” (160 pounds) Takanori Gomi are the only remaining Pride champions in existence, besides Dan Henderson (who holds both the Pride 183 AND 205 pound titles), who have not lost their titles inside the ring (or now cage since the UFC® took things over). But since it realistically looks like there may not ever be another actual Pride show...The Secrets to Gracie Fighter’s Success…

  When looking at the current crop of champion factories in the BJJ and MMA world, one cannot overlook the powerhouse Cesar Gracie Competition Team. With champions and fighters like Dave Terrell, Gil Castillo, Nick and Nate Diaz, Jake Shields, and Gilbert Melendez, it is clear that Cesar Gracie offers something important as an instructor. To discover what this special “something” is, we are going to be diving into Cesar Gracie’s DVD legacies, his 3 disc Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Instructional by Ultimate Imports as well as the self produced 6 volume Gi-Less Jiu-Jitsu set.UFC 74: Respect - Preview by Stephen Quadros

 On The Not So Scientific Art Of Picking WinnersI have always enjoyed writing this column because it makes me take a long look at what’s happening in the world of American pay per view MMA events, which these days means the UFC® exclusively (the owners of the UFC, the Fertitta brothers, devoured their competition, the ‘other’ MMA pay per view event, Pride, last year). So here we are in 2007: the sport is mainstream and the athletes are much more evolved. But in that evolution comes the uncertainty of predicting who will prevail in any given contest. Longtime UFC® matchmaker Joe Silva has done such an outstanding job on putting together contests that have defied even the best odds makers... Attack, attack, and then attack some more with Cobrinha…

  When it comes to instructionals, there are usually two major subcategories that arise: 1. Encyclopedic- including the macro every move under the sun as well as the micro/position specific instructional and 2. Game specific- where the player tries to give insight into why his/her jiu-jitsu works so well. However, sometimes the dividing line between these subcategories becomes hazy and this is definitely the case with the recently released Rubens “Cobrinha” Charles Vol. 1 and Cobra Jiu-Jitsu 2 instructionals by Bull Terrier out of Japan. The Budo Blog: The Essential Rigan Machado
(2007-07-19)
 When I first thought of the idea of showcasing a certain athlete and his material, Rigan Machado was the first person to come to mind. The reason is simple… Rigan has a ton of knowledge, experience, and product both written and video from multiple publishers, therefore he was a prime candidate for the Essential Series. In addition, Rigan is respected as one of the greatest BJJ practitioners of his era and is also one of the five famous Machado brothers of jiu-jitsu.

 Title
fights by nature are supposed to represent the best that combat sports have to
offer, top contenders vying for the top position…in their division. And both
champion Wanderlei Silva and challenger “Dangerous” Dan Henderson are surely two
of the best fighters…in their two separate weight categories. Yeah, Dan finally
moved down to 183 pounds a few years back and (as expected) won the Pride belt
there on New Years Ever (2005) after a grueling tournament that saw him best
Murilo Bustamante (a second time) by decision in the finals...

2008 BJJ World Championship DVD Preview Online Now
I
don’t think anyone can argue that the UFC® (Ultimate Fighting Championship®) is
the reigning leader in the field of MMA (mixed martial arts)…at the moment.
Since the fall (“purchase”, whatever) of Japan’s Pride organization there has
been no real sustained threat to toppling the UFC’s growing stature. In the US
they dominate the ticket sales and the airways.
A
new feature to the Budo Blog beginning with this review is the Favorite Five.
The purpose of the Favorite Five is to provide the reader with not only five of
my personal favorite instructionals, tapes, etc., but to also provide a solid
foundation for your instructional library. Therefore, it is my intention to
showcase DVDs that both I myself enjoy and round me out as a student.
The
Budo Blog is the place to go to read in depth product reviews, comparisons
and news of upcoming martial arts and MMA related products.
Pan
Ams 2007 Picture gallery!
Four
of the fighters on tonight’s card hail from Texas: Mike Swick (Houston), Heath
Herring (Waco), Leonard Garcia (Plainview) and Roger Huerta (Austin). This is
the perfect marketing tool for entering a region like this and it will help the
live gate.
One
of the most sought after and well known martial arts product lines has been
added to our site. We have just added,
Daito-ryu
Aikibudo: History and Technique is the first book to comprehensively show the
roots, principles and techniques of this ancient art passed down directly from
its last Soke, Takeda Tokimune and his most faithful and long-time students.
