GonzoGeek’s Top 10 Posts of 2010

Cheescake of the Year...again! It's that time once again kids. That's right, its the only time of year that Dan Fogelberg gets any regular airplay. Thank the gods. It's also the time of year when we look back and see where we've been and where we're heading.  It was another good year for the Gonzo …

The Ultimate Fighter – Season 12, The Ultimate Finale

You know what is really annoying? You spend three months watching and chronicling these fights, then, the night of the big finale, the main event goes over the DVR assigned time limit and you lose six and half minutes of the final fight. That's right, I didn't actually see the end of the second or …

The Ultimate Fighter – Season 12, Episode 11

  For the life of me I can't figure out why this episode has to be two hours. I mean, combined, the fights are 30 minutes.  That's an hour and a half of filler.  Is there really that much left unresolved that we need to see the ousted fighters banter for that long? Nope. I'm …

The Ultimate Fighter – Season 12, Episode 10

We already know Jonathan Brookins and Nam Phan will be in the semi-finals. Who will join them? That's what this week's show is all about. They've saved Bruce Leroy's fight for the very end, presumably to milk every last bit of his irritating personality before disposing of him (see also - Slice, Kimbo). Our first …

The Ultimate Fighter – Season 12, Episode 9

This is where the rubber hits the road, so to speak. After eight weeks of fights, we are down to our quarter-finals. There is a lot at stake for these guys. I haven't been as diligent about writing up these recaps this season as I have in the past.  Things have been hectic.  I've also …

The Ultimate Fighter – Season 12, Episode 8

Two guys. One fight. One slot. That's what this week is all about. Yes kids, its the return of the "wild card" fight. Marc Stevens comes into the fight as a controversial pick.  Aaron "English" Wilkinson not so much. Things get off to a rough start as Josh Koscheck once again gets into a verbal …

UFC 123: Rampage vs. Machida Predictions

Quinton "Rampage" Jackson vs. Lyoto Machida Bruce: I'm picking Machida. Why? Simple. Matt has an unnatural mancrush on Rampage so I KNOW he's going to pick him. I'm picking against just to do so. Let's see how I do. Want more science? Machida beat Rashad Evans in May 2009. Rashad Evans beat Rampage in May …

GonzoGeek to Cover Austin Comic Con

Stephe and I have attended the Texas Wizard World Conventions every year since their inception. Those conventions have historically been held in Arlington, Texas. That was until last year when they cancelled the Con altogether.  This year, Wizard got back on the horse and moved the Con to Austin, Texas. We're going again, and, for …

The Ultimate Fighter – Season 12, Episode 7

We're down to our final first round fight.  Team GSP has won 5 of the first 6 fights and is firmly in control of the competition so far. Tonight's fight will feature Dane Sayers (TEAM SaGSP) taking on Sako Chivitchian (TEAM KOSCHECK). Sayers was the final fighter taken during the draft and he seems intent …

The Ultimate Fighter – Season 12, Episode 6

Tonight's show will have two of our final three first round fights.  Can Koscheck retain control or will GSP get it back?  Lots of action to get to.  When last we checked in with our Ultimate Fighter cast, Team Koscheck had finally won a fight and taken control of the fight creation aspect of the competition. Now, …
