State of the Sport come check out there website

Here is another great website on all sorts of infomation about sports.They also have alot of great articals on the UFC/MMA.Here is a sample of one of there articals....

Four fights that make UFC 132 worth it!

Many were surprised by what UFC 131 had to offer and now we look towards UFC 132 on July 2nd to do exactly the same. I heard a lot of “fans” on the internet say that the UFC 131 card wasn’t really worth dishing out the $50 to order.

I realize times are tough but let’s be realistic.

That’s five days of taking your own lunch to work instead of buying a coffee and Subway. That’s one less video game you could do without for the month. It’s not a lot of money when you break it down and if I still haven’t convinced you through my mathematical sorcery here are four fights from UFC 132 that make that card worth $50 on it’s own.

I am pretty biased on this first one (and it‘s probably not even going to be televised). I am Australian and for me to have someone to cheer for inside that Octagon, that’s a big thing. George Sotiropolous was heading towards glory for a little while. With seven straight wins to his name he was sure to be in line for a title shot, however he came unstuck at UFC 127 when he just couldn’t do a thing against Denis Siver. Not to worry though, back on the horse for Georgie and he steps into the cage this time around looking to get back on the winning track against Rafael dos Anjos (who was supposed to be Evan Dunham). Someone is going to tap out in this one and I know it’s not going to be Georgie boy!

Tito Ortiz has a lot of haters. It’s unfortunate because he really is a nice guy when it comes down to it. His fight with Ryan Bader is going to be do or die. Tito pretty much has to win this to keep his career alive, it hasn’t been confirmed but everyone kind of sees this as the last chance for Tito to get back into title contention. Bader has just come off his first career loss at the hands of the current Light Heavyweight champion. Everybody loses once, it’s almost guaranteed, it’s not the loss that kills your career, it’s what you do after it. I like Bader but I like Tito more, I want the underdog (Tito) to win this one so he can have one last “hurrah!” for his career.
