Does Hendo Deserve Title Shot?

Posted on 12 January 2011 by Hobson Lopes

It was reported by MMAfighting.com that a Dan Henderson vs. Rafael Cavalcante fight for the Strikeforce Light Heavyweight title is being planned for March.  Henderson would be making just his second appearance in the division if the fight happens.  It’s understandable why Henderson is getting the title shot considering who else is in that weight class for Strikeforce.  In a division that is home to Abongo Humphrey, Muhammed Lawal, Gegard Mousasi & Trevor Prangley, (all former Strikeforce champions except for Humphrey) it’s an easier sell to the fans with Henderson.

Henderson has gone 4 – 1 over his last five fights

Pankration: Yes, Fedor Emelianenko’s Martial Art

Posted on 22 November 2009 by Tony Thacker

Different Types of Martial Arts

Pankration, the ancient full-contact fighting art, which became an Olympic sport in 648 BCE, is one of the world’s oldest martial arts. Mythology maintains that it was invented by Hercules

and Theseus, although it is more likely to have developed as a training method for Greek soldiers, who noted that, by combining boxing techniques and groundwork as both sport and exercise, they could keep themselves battle-ready and still fight effectively should they lose their weapon during the heat of battle.
