-Very sad, Rondel Clark fought for Cage Titans on Saturday night and died Tuesday. I havent found anything yet so if someone sees anything or has an update please post. (RIP)
Ferguson and Lee is not the most intelligent fight. Lee is doing it right all you need is beat a couple of bums and talk smack to move up in the UFC. What about Khabib?
Some quick hits
-Reebok is updating their fightware with colors
-Paige VanZant is moving up to Flyweight because of horrible weight cuts
-Ronda Rousey and her "Four Horsewomen" were at some wrestling event. They cut a promo I guess and its really something that needs to be seen.

Did you guys watch the ultimate fighter last night? Ok so I saw the last episode and the one before that. They were to two most lopsided wins the fighter that won was completely dominate in the match and good for them they trained well and showed up, but cmon the ladies that lost pretty much just didn't belong. That may be disrespectful , and I do not mean to be, but its what I thought of as a consumer watching this show.
I really am not a big fan of the show and if I do catch the show I usually wait until the end and just watch the fight. The interviews on FS1 are ok sometimes as well.
