Saturday was a great night for sports fans. I was most excited about Pacquiao-Marquez; after seeing the way these two fighters matched up in their first two fights, you knew it would be worth the $55 on PPV. But what surprised me was that when I started calling my buddies to let them know I was renting the fight, every single one of them said they’d come by as long as we were also watching the UFC on Fox at 9:00. Of course, the two events didn’t overlap so it was all the same to me, but it proved to me that in the key demographic of 18-34 year olds, MMA had clearly taken over as the king of combat sports.

By now, you’ve probably heard about the Mayweather vs. Ortiz fight that happened over the weekend. Some of you might have caught the roast of Charlie Sheen last night where Mike Tyson railed on the Charlie (not ‘railed charlie’, that’s another story). Some of his jokes hit hard, but certainly weren’t as jarring as, say, his knockout punch against Frank Bruno. Since today (September 20th) is National Punch Day, we thought we’d show you some of the most devastating punches ever caught on camera. Check out the gallery and videos after the jump.

With video of Bart Scott’s emotional post-game interview spreading across the ‘net like whoa, we thought we’d take a look at some of the best postgame interviews ever uploaded. It’s important to note we didn’t include videos from press conferences. Players and coaches know what they’re stepping into when those happen. These post-game interviews feature players fresh off the court, the rink, or the field, often still in uniform, still out-of-breath, and still in the heat of the moment. That’s when you get the best emotion. We know you CAN’T WAIT! See the videos after the jump!

Thiago Silva completely destroyed Brandon Vera’s face and spirit in a dominant decision win during Saturday night’s UFC 125. Vera spent much of the bout on his back guarding his mug against Silva’s aggressive facial assault. At the end of the fight, Silva continued slapping and taunting Vera silly, ultimately leaving the usually boistrous brawler unusually humbled. (see Silva’s post fight interview here.)

Tonight, Josh Koscheck will be fighting Georges St. Pierre for the UFC Welterweight championship in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. He’s comfortable being the heel and underdog against arguably the best pound-for-pound fighter on the planet in GSP. After 7 months, the one-sided flame war which started ironically enough in Montreal when Kos said the Pittsburgh Penguins would beat the Canadiens and then he would be St. Pierre so they (the fans) would lose twice. If I told you he didn’t cross over from WWE but instead made his rise to the top starting on the first season of The Ultimate Fighter, you may be a little hesitant. Five years and a dozen seasons later, Josh Koscheck has come full circle in the MMA world.
