I can still remember when The president of the UFC, Dana White, had said there would never be female fighters in the UFC. Now some of the most exciting fights come from those very same fighters and Dana White has said he was very wrong on that point and he loves watching the women compete.

The next season of the Ultimate Fighter is starting and the coaches are Frankie Edgar and B.J.Penn. After the show is over the two will fight for the third time in what is sure to be a really good bout. So far Edgar is 2 and 0 against Penn which in all honesty has surprised everyone. Both fighters have a mutual respect for each other so there probably will not be too much of the usual trash talking.

Machida is considered by many to be an MMA fighting legend. What many people do not realize is that Machida put Karate back on the map as far as mixed martial arts go. Before many people have considered karate no longer effective for mixed martial arts , but Machida changed all that.

Now you can learn the karate system that made Machida who he is. The Machida do karate system is founded on effective karate, that is well suited for mma and ufc style matches.
