My friend has a subscription is Dave Meltzer's site and was listening to Observer Radio this morning. On the show, they were talking about that the rumor is Diaz is going to fail his drug test, obviously for weed. They said it took him over 6 hours to provide a urine sample after the Condit fight. This would make a lot of sense for the reason that the Diaz camp has not jumped all over the opportunity to sign up for the Condit vs Diaz 2 rematch. Thoughts?

Today, I was watching Storage Wars from last night's DVR list, and I noticed that one of the Las Vegas auctions featured was for a lot of MMA equipment, most notably a Championship Belt. This belt had "Powerhouse World Promotions: War on the Mainland" on it, as well as "Middleweight Champion" on the side. After  some googleing, I found that this unpaid locker must belong to Matt Horwich since he won this belt in August 2010. Then I saw  this Sherdog post, and I knew I wasn't crazy. Just thought that was kind of sad that Matt can't afford a storage lot. 

I don't know if this might be a bit premature, but i was wondering how many people on the bloodyelbow are going to UFC 100. My friend and I just ordered our tickets for the event and the expo, and are staying in the Tropicana. If there is a good amount of people, maybe we should all pick a place to meet up and have a few drinks. Tell me what you all think.

We all know that the UFC pretty much has a monopoly when it comes to MMA, but there is still some great talent out there that many fans would love for the UFC to pick up. I thought it would be a great for everyone to talk about who their 5 personal picks would be, so I will start it out.

When me and my buddies were watching the TUF finale, i noticed that one fighter in the ring and one of the promo shots looked famaliar. The guy i saw was Allen Browning from Lexington,Ky. He trains at the 4 Seasons MMA gym in Lexington and he gave me and my friend are first ever MMA lesson. I also know one of his friends and he said that he would be on the show. He was fighting for the AFL mma promotion, the same one that just signed ex-WWE wrestler Bobby Lashley. This is the first i've heard of this story on the internet, so i must have the scoop i guess.
