THIS http://www.sherdog.com/radio/Beatdown-Nick-Diaz-Uncensored-308 fuckin' Nick Diaz interview. Honestly the whole thing is probably worth a listen as an MMA time capsule. Around 110 is when he foreshadows fighters having problems with testosterone levels after roiding. And High Fructose Corn Syrup before it became a common topic.
Also something about plastic tit mutant chicks was somewhere in the earlier portion of the interview. This was after his win over Gomi was reversed due to reefers. before the Mike Aina fight.


When I was knew to listening to Sherdog radio, they did an interview with Vitor.
Suddenly, Josh Gross (former Editor of Sherdog's news content) said "That's not Vitor!"
I think the guy hung up that point. Not sure that was the first time Vitor had a stand-in - but I recall something to the effect of "We're done with Vitor interviews"... which suggested that it was Vitor who let it happen - or at least that Gross was convinced that it was.



Even fewer people know that the turban on his head was actually a rolled-up judogi.
So how you know that?

A fake vitor? Tremendous.
 
That's better than being in the fuckin house for 6 weeks. Who won season 5?

Nate Diaz beat Manny Gamburyan in the finals when Manny separated his shoulder after winning the first round. Frankie would have been a favorite for sure.
 
Random clip of the pre-fight when Hendo stepped in to fight Bustamante in the GP



"Murilo Bustamante's gonna get his head knocked off"

Randy was pretty prophetic there lol

Fun facts: there was likely some bad blood to this last minute matchup as Bustamante had previously subbed Team Quest patriarch Matt Lindland when Murilo was the UFC MW champ. It was the first MMA loss of Lindland's career

Big Daddy´s talkin´outtah his ass here, 90% is not realistic...
Goodridge was exaggerating for sure. The 1st pride had worked matches but after that, very few matches were fixed, mostly Takada's.
Pride 1
Rickson Gracie def. Nobuhiko Takada Submission (armbar) 1 4:47 not a work
Kimo Leopoldo vs. Dan Severn Draw (time expired) 1 30:00 not a work
Branko Cikatic vs. Ralph White No Contest 1 1:52 [a] not a work
Koji Kitao def. Nathan Jones Submission (keylock) 1 2:14 work
Renzo Gracie vs. Akira Shoji Draw (time expired) 3 10:00 not a work
Gary Goodridge def. Oleg Taktarov KO (punch) 1 4:57 not a work
Kazunari Murakami def. John Dixson Submission (armbar) 1 1:34 work

So 2 out of 7 were works.
 
Anyone got any cage rage story’s from
Back In the day

I bet there was some rough shit going on there
I remember Dan Hardy saying on a podcast how he was travelling to the arena to fight that night
And the traffic was backed up really bad
Next thing he See’s is Lee Murray flying down the hard shoulder (big no no on UK roads) in his M3 not giving a fuck

There's a thread about Lee Murray's street fight stories on another certain MMA forum that I'm not allowed to post, but yeah he had a serious reputation around London in the early-mid 2000s.
 
Was there not a rumor of Cody Garbrandt meeting up with some dude at a UFC event where there was a whole thread that got deleted?
