How to win big in lottery? There are probably tons of strategies, but one can't play lottery without buying a lottery ticket. By the same rationale, to become a world champion, one must at least compete for that title.

Jucão always says, "Control your space." This sounds similar to "I see you" from Avatar. I never really understood what Jucão meant. Until recently.

"The official trailer of the upcoming documentary, 'Grappling Kings.' This takes a look at one of the ground elements of mixed martial arts- submission grappling. Can this be the next sport to hit mainstream? Grappling Kings features Strikeforce's Gina Carano, UFC's Kurt Pelligrino and Pete Sell, WWE's Bryan Danielson, Wrestling Roundtable's Eric Santamaria, as well as other great fighters,

Even though Fedor Emelianenko was not widely advertised for his short visit to New York, many hundreds of MMA fans came to see him and get his authograph at Fighthouse. But not many got a chance to get close to Fedor, many left the gym disappointed.Photo Credit: Me.

Ailson “Jucão” Brites is a happy man. Everyone knows how affectionate he is about his family. As much as he loves his wife and daughters, he loves his work. I heard him say, “I am happy because I play jiu-jitsu”. His happiness is reflected in his constant smile and ever lively eyes. But Jucão is even happier when he outwrestles his students. Since that happens invariably, 100% of the time, Jucão

The M-1 Challenge 9 that took place on November 21, 2008 in Saint-Petersburg, Russia made me think about Yuki Nakai. Specifically, the M-1 fight between Musa Khamanaev (Sambo Team Legion) and Bogdan Cristea (Netherlands) reminded me of the 1995 Vale Tudo tournament in Japan. Yuki Nakai lost vision in his right eye after an illegally eye gouge by Gerard Gordeau.As Teddy Atlas exclaimed after the

Last Saturday, I came to the dojo one hour earlier by mistake. I was surprised to see three young boys training there. I think the boys were between 7 and 9 years old. I also saw an infant sitting in the corner, to whom I did not pay attention at first.I went upstairs to an observation balcony so that I could watch the kids at training. There I saw three fathers who were watching over their
