UFC 118 Fight Gallery
We are back from Boston and thoroughly exhausted from our month long tour through San Diego–Oakland–Phoenix–Houston–Boston along the MMA media circuit. My full gallery is up at MMAfighting.com, but these sixteen are my absolute favorites. Unfortunately, I saw little of Boston but I do hope to return one day with better-planned lodging and perhaps a little more [...]
UFC 118 Fight Week
Just a gallery of photos from all the fight week events I’ve shot for MMAfighting.com leading up to tonight’s UFC 118 here in lovely Boston, MA to whet your appetite for the fights. I’m pretty jazzed for this card, especially Nate Diaz vs Marcus Davis, and interested in Amilcar Alves’ UFC debut. Don’t forget to [...]
Strikeforce Houston Fight Night
It’s not a secret that we here at All Elbows are longtime fans of Mo Lawal, as we’ve done pretty much all his pre-fight hype videos since meeting him in Japan last year. But I have also worked with Rafael “Feijao” Cavalcante since his days at EliteXC and I honestly couldn’t be prouder to see [...]
Strikeforce Houston Weigh-ins
Strikeforce: Houston is tomorrow night! We had weigh-ins today at the Toyota Center with lots of fans in attendance. Below are the weigh-in photos + Jorge “Macaco” Patino weighing in after the stage had been torn down. Casey’s here working for AOL and he made a video on fight week events, which is below the [...]
Strikeforce Houston Media Workout
I’m all settled in here in downtown Houston for Strikeforce fight week and more than thrilled for this Saturday’s card at the Toyota Center in my adopted hometown. The week started off with today’s media workout at the Metro Fight Club. In the afternoon, KJ Noons, Bobby Lashley, King Mo, and Tim Kennedy went to [...]
Strikeforce Challengers Phoenix Fight Night
Phoenix was interesting. The fights were good, though I’ll say it again, three minute rounds are far too short for the women’s bouts. The layout of the theater was probably nice for fans, a bit uncomfortable for the media, but I hope the spectators had a good time — seemed like they did. Fans ran [...]
Strikeforce Challengers Phoenix Weigh
Weigh-ins & studio today here in warm Phoenix. Got to meet all the tournament participants today and I’m thoroughly excited for tomorrow night — oh wait, it’s past midnight now — tonight’s fights. Wanted to post a few shots from today’s weigh-ins, I apologize for not more comprehensive photo coverage. My speedlite died halfway through [...]
UFC 117 Fight Night
I was fortunate enough to have the last moment of Silva-Sonnen right in front of me. Seven or eight feet away. The whole night seemed to blur at that moment. I’m still not confident that it’s Monday morning. I don’t remember my flight home. I remember the bus ride from the airport to Union Station [...]
UFC 117 Workout Photos + Video
We’re up here in mild-summered Oakland for UFC 117 fight week doing our usual comprehensive coverage for AOL Fanhouse. I’ve got my favorite photos from yesterday’s workout and today’s very fun presser (full gallery here on AOL — with fullscreen capability) and Casey made this sweet video of the whole event. And photos! Yay!
