Anatomy of a Fighter is just one guy doing behind the scenes stuff to help promote fighters (usually before their next fight) because he felt like the UFC does a poor job of it.

here's another video that breaks some of it down

Looks like Zhang is training with legendary Thai boxer Saenchai in preparation for her next fight!

The Weasel did his own take on the Zabit vs Kattar fight. The Weasel is a popular fight analyst/podcaster on YouTube who goes by a pseudonym like a handful of other analysts (Lawrence Kenshin and...
Luke Thomas, who is a fantastic fight analyst and MMA journalist, broke down the recent Zabit fight and made some light analysis of Zabit as a fighter in general.
Just some background on the...
My boy Zabit picked up another win, going 6-0 in the UFC and 18-1 overall in MMA!
His opponent, Calvin Kattar was 3" shorter but had the same reach (Zabit is tall for the featherweight division)...
Thanks Jimbo! I'm surprised I forgot them
Zabit is scheduled to fight Calvin Kattar this Saturday at UFC Fight Night 163 in the main event. I'll do my best to update the results after the fight and give my take on it but you can either watch...
The week before a fight, the UFC puts up footage of older fights (usually their last one or two wins). Here's Zabit vs Kyle Bochniak in April 2018. This video likely won't be around after Monday...
Here's a video of Zabit's only loss thus far. This was in 2013 before he was in the UFC and fighting for ProFC.

Traditional in this case means karate and kung fu
Please do me a favor and mention what organization everyone fights out of in the future and FYI Zhang Weili was the first one I mentioned :P
Thanks Jimbo! For some reason I thought that Roy Nelson's experience in Ng Ga was very minimal but his wikipedia page says he has a black sash
I wasn't really sure what to title this since something like SanDa isn't considered traditional, but it's Kung Fu. Karate is traditional but is not Kung Fu. Catch my drift? Good.
This is an...
Here's a 20-min interview with Zhang from last month on the Ariel Helwani show. It was two days after her title fight
More on the recent suplex-gate. This article goes in to good detail on the issue and mentions the few times a fighter (including ONE darling Christian Lee) has been DQ'd for a suplex. Based on the...
More fuzzy stuff from ONE. The atomweight champion and ONE darling Angela Lee defended her belt against Xiong Jin Nan who defeated her in a different title fight. She used a suplex-like move that...
ONE has a lot going for it as the Asian UFC and a rising contender to the UFC's monopoly as they pick up more and more former UFC fighters and some notable American fighters (like BJJ legend Gordon...
In regards to drug testing, it seems that ONE is engaging in wishful thinking at best or blowing smoke at worst.

Good ol McGregor, keeping honor and dignity in the martial arts once again. This one is some speculation, but it's not entirely out of character for him as he is currently going through a sexual...

Gene must be slipping in his old age :p
Zabit Magomedsharipov is a Sanda and Sambo (and a whole bunch of other things according to Wikipedia) fighter who is the #5 ranked featherweight...
Go you remember what you posted a decade ago, kids?
Gene knows.
I think Gene's the Pepperidge Farm guy...
Gene's like the TimeHop of KFM :P :P
I find that I can't take Bawang seriously when he's not trolling
In general, I'd suggest Jow Ga. I think it would take your further long-term than Wing Chun based on my experience.
If you have time later on, I'd spend some time cross training with Judo and Wing...
