I've never gotten really into it but have been wanting to follow mma for years.

I created new UFC, MMA forums in The Fight Club. For now I have just been moving some old threads to the new forums but I hope to add more and have people into mma start posting. Maybe we will also add some forums on boxing and the wwe. Let me know what you guys think.

I am REALLY looking forward to a new UFC heavyweight title match. What's up with Cain? He hasn't fought of 2 years. I guess UFC and other MMA organizations should set up some guidelines about title holders who are not able to compete for more than a year for any reasons. If the champs are not able to defend his title for 6 months, then there should be an interim champ. IF, the champ is still not able to come back after a year, then the interim champ should be the actual title holder. I know injuries and sickness happen, but it wouldn't be fair to other fighters who works as equally hard as the champs, to delay their chances of being a title holder themselves.

Eddie Alvarez battles Michael Chandler for the Bellator MMA Lightweight Championship in one of the best fights of 2011.

That's never going to happen. Fedor can make a lot more money fighting in Japan, where he's better-known and celebrated as an MMA legend. Also, he's older now (and slightly overrated), and would not be successful against the likes of Werdum (who's beaten him already), Velasquez, Miocic, et al.

2015 may turn out to be the UFC's worst year ever for injuries. Most recently, Matt Brown's had to pull out of his fight with Kelvin Gastellum, and Khabib Nurmagomedov injured a rib, knocking him out of his scheduled scrap with Tony Ferguson. There have been (seemingly) countless others this year. If you're like me, you're crossing your fingers like hell that McGregor / Aldo comes off without a hitch in December. Hopefully Aldo doesn't hurt his poor little rib again... heh heh.

the steroid report said that the urine was off a dead person or an animal....honestly randleman is putting no effort towards hiding his juicing

That really does imply a real lack of effort there. I would think that all the people that surround these guys, agents and media and all the stuff, if you really wanted to you could throw someone 100 dollars for a clean sample. Maybe not though, and maybe everyone is dedicated to the integrity of the sports and do not want to see substances used (I am kind of being sarcastic here, because I do not think this is the case). Maybe he will get better in the future.

Brandon Vera of the Philippines remains the heavyweight champion in the One Championship league. I wonder why Vera wouldn't fight in the UFC. Is it because UFC has a very high standard that One Championship fighters appappear to be of inferior quality when it comes to fighting skills?
