PXC 33 event tonight

Pacific Xtreme Combat (PXC) is having their event tonight titled PXC 33 originally headlined by PXC lightweight title fight between Harris Sarmiento vs Jon Tuck. However, Jon Tuck got injured and is replaced by Seung Hwa Han of South Korea.

The Co-main event is a featherweight fight between Mark 'Mugen' Striegl vs Roberto Wusstig. Personally I watched Striegl fight in a Malaysian Figthing Championship (MFC) card before. He was very impressive in that bout and he is still undefeated in his MMA professional career.

Tim Sylvia is a soccer ball

Here's a Gif of the Maine-iac getting soccer kick by the Pit bull Andrei Arlovski.

Btw, its a no contest. Illegal strikes because it is not from the open guard. (Ref needs need to give the green light for Soccer kicks to the head)

Koch out, Edgar in

At first I thought some one was bluffing but then came the confirmed news. Frankie Edgar is getting a title shot at 145 Lbs because he is a company man. And also, Erik Koch is injured of course. Fight is schedule for the UFC 153 event on the October 13 in HSBC Arena, Rio de Janeiro.

It seems in the UFC, fortune favours the loyal.


Article from MMA Fighting


Aug 31, 2012 - Frankie Edgar will be getting an immediate title shot when he drops to featherweight after all.

Edgar has replaced Erik Koch in the UFC 153 main event and will face Jose Aldo, MMA Fighting's Ariel Helwani has confirmed. USA Today was the first to break the news.

Koch suffered a knee injury recently and was forced to withdraw from the fight, according to Helwani.

Edgar (14-3-1) has lost his past two fights to UFC lightweight champion Benson Henderson. He was expected to make his featherweight debut later this year before the injury to Koch.

Koch apologized to his fans on Twitter, stating "I'm sorry guys this has been one crazy year for me deff a hard one, I just wanna thank all of you guys for the support means the world to me."

Aldo (21-1), who has won 14 straight fights, was critical of former UFC champion Edgar recently in an interview with Tatame.

"He said he wants to drop to featherweight, so I'm hoping he does that to end this story," Aldo told Tatame.com. "He's welcome here so that we can shut him off and he goes to the lightweight or bantamweight classes."

UFC 153 is scheduled for Oct. 13 at the HSBC Arena in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
