Video: Jens Pulver – ‘Driven’

January 17th, 2010 sidechoke No comments

This video has surfaced online over the past few days, basically a small teaser of an documentary planned to document Jens Pulver’s next WEC fight, scheduled for March against veteran Javier Vasquez.

It’s hard not to root for Little Evil, despite having a tough couple of years i don’t think it’s too late to count the former UFC Lightweight Champion out. The documentary itself looks like it could be fantastic, it shows Pulver again reminiscing about his troubled past and explaining why it is he fights.

If anyone’s unaware of Jens’ past, i highly recommend you seek out his book, also entitled Little Evil. It’s kind of gotten forgotten as it was released before the boom of Mixed Martial Arts, and i barely see it get mentioned along with the books of Chuck Liddell, Randy Couture etc. Jens’ is a different beast altogther, i recommend everyone seeks out a copy.

I’ll be rooting for Little Evil come March.

News: Kimbo Slice to fight Matt Mitrione @ UFC 113

January 17th, 2010 sidechoke 1 comment

its being reported that internet street fighting phenom come unlikely UFC fighter Kimbo Slice will fight fellow TUF 10 cast member and Marcus Jones slayer Matt Mitrione at UFC 113 in Montreal.

Great matchup in my opinion, Kimbo’s a guy who needs to be matched up correctly, he’s a cash-cow and the UFC knows it. It’s a winnable fight for Kimbo and ultimately you know that’s what the UFC wants.

That’s not to say former NFL Star Mitrione isn’t dangerous, despite having clear mental lapses during the show and a horrible gas tank, what he did prove was that he had a jaw of iron and hit like a truck, if Kimbo isn’t careful he could end up flat on his face…I’m still hoping we end up seeing Kimbo/Paul Buentello at some point.

UFC 113 is shaping up!
