They say that people who are good at martial arts will still lose in a street fight because streetfighters don’t follow the same rules of fighting as someone skilled in martial arts. So I thought, Well, then you should probably just be a streetfighter! But after seeing this awesome flying knockout kick to the neck, I’m not so sure that theory is correct.

Capoeria is a Brazilian martial arts that simulates dancing, which is what these two guys are supposed to be showcasing for a crowd. But in the middle, something goes wrong, and the pretend fighting turns into an all-out rumble. Yay!

With the recession coming home to roost on Wall Street, New York’s about to get dangerous again. In fact, someone was just robbed in my apartment building last week – something that hasn’t happend in seven years of living in this neighborhood. So it’s probably a good time to learn to defend myself properly. But instead of learning an entire fighting style, I think I’m just going to learn this…

If you came across something called “Lady Is the Boss” on You Tube, you might dismiss it as lame. But you’d be so wrong, it would be embarrassing. Not only that, but you’d miss the sweetest gang of ninja BMX riders, led my the gnarliest chick you’ve ever seen on film, beat the hell out of the bad guys. Life doesn’t get much better – that’s what you would miss…

A new month and a new UFC card. Taking place on Saturday, September 6^th at the Philips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, UFC 88 lacks any title fights, but does include a few bouts that have title implications. Here is an overview of the card.

Chuck “The Iceman” Liddell vs. “Sugar” Rashad Evans

The return of the king. Or rather, former king. Chuck Liddell makes his first appearance in the Octagon since his ridiculously exciting bout versus Wanderlei Silva in 2007.

This fight was supposed to take place in June but Chuck injured his hamstring, and despite his insistence that he could fight (Chuck had never pulled himself from a card before) Dana White pulled the plug. A smart decision, considering Rashad is no pushover.

Evans is a TUF winner and currently undefeated in the UFC (one draw, versus Tito Ortiz). This is a classic wrestler vs. striker match-up, and while we definitely believe that Rashad is a prospect at 205, COED is taking Liddell in this one.

Chuck might be getting older, but he showed in his fight against Silva that he’s still hungry and can play an intelligent game. The one thing that hasn’t declined for Chuck is his sprawl. More so than his knockout power, The Iceman’s ability to stay on his feet is truly legendary. If Rashad wants to win, he’ll have to shoot and scoop. Unfortunately, Chuck won’t let this happen and will catch Rashad multiple times as he comes in for the take down.

COED Pick : Chuck Liddell by TKO. (more…)
