“Brock (Lesnar) actually took care of me from the financial standpoint. He knows the guys he wants around him to help him train, people he gets along with, and he compensates you for it. I was fortunate, because it allowed me to train full time. Every time he had a practice, I was there, not [...] The UFC and Spike are revisiting their popular “Primetime” series to hype up UFC 111, coming up Saturday, Mar. 27. In the short sneak preview that was released on Youtube, we learn that Georges St. Pierre can jump really, really high. The last time the UFC and Spike did “Primetime,” it was for St. Pierre’s fight [...] Props: Wisconsin Combat Sports Quoteworthy: “I chose Bellator for a number of reasons. They offered me the best contract, I can get three fights done in three months, and on top of that I really think that they will do a good job of promoting me. I feel good about facing (Ryan) Thomas.

We’ll see where this fight is going to go. I think he’s going to try to stand with me honestly. He might force it to the ground, and if he’s really after those takedowns it’s going to end up on the ground eventually [...] “That is a horrible fight for me. I have trained with his brother a little bit, so he already has the ‘inside scoop’ on me, he’s a southpaw, has got a good chin, and has good power. Plus he is pretty solid on the ground. The only place I would have an advantage would be [...] By Bryan Levick, BleacherReport.com – Newly crowned WEC lightweight champion Ben Henderson is just starting his MMA career.

Bleacher Report had the chance to speak with the champ [...] Props: Sun-Sentinel.com Quoteworthy: “When the fight comes with Fedor, which is going to be two, maybe three fights away, I will be definitely ready for him.
