Jason "Mayhem Monkey" Miller starts MTV's Bully Beatdown

Jason "Mayhem Monkey" Miller has always been great at 2 things, being crazy, and beating down his opponents in MMA Mixed Martial Arts. Now MTV (Music Television) will allow him to be the Mayhem Miller that everyone loves to watch in a new show called Bully Beatdown where he will accept peoples cries for help from bully's around the world. Jason Miller will then stand-off with the bully's face to face allow them to rant about how great they are and then Mayhem Monkey will give them a challenge to face an MMA fighter of the same weight to win $10,000 dollars. Already the show is turning allot of heads because of it's Pros versus Joes style competitions but the MMA community has been ecstatic showing that it takes more then being the biggest baddest man around to be a MMA Fighter.

With reality shows coming in strong for the 2009 year this could be one of the best ones yet. Allowing bully's to get a taste of their own medicine on National TV. And great news for Triumph United Fans as Jason will be wearing different Triumph United shirts each episode.

W1 MMA: MARCH 28TH SHOW UPDATE!!

The day of reckoning is rapidly approaching as Warrior One MMA will be LIVE at the Robert Guertin Arena on March 28th for W1: INCEPTION. The highly anticipated main event between MMA legend CARLOS ‘THE RONIN’ NEWTON and NABIL ‘THE THRILL’ KHATIB continues to generate buzz throughout the MMA world. This fight was recently listed on Sherdog.com (the most popular MMA site in the world) as one of March’s top ten fights to watch; in the world!!

In addition to this historic main event, MARK ‘BOOTS’ HOLST will now put aside the past two months of opponent changes and will once again be scheduled to face his original opponent; striker MARTIN ‘THE HAMMER’ GRANDMONT in a lightweight slugfest.


“This is the fight we’ve wanted since day one,” said W1 Matchmaker Alex Caporicci. “Both these men are spectacular fighters who love to bang. There seems to be a genuine dislike between the camps and for year they’ve both heard arguments about who is the better striker. Finally they’ll get the opportunity to put an end to the debate.”


Due to an injury to his original opponent, former CFL and WWE superstar GLENN ‘THE KULKSTER’ KULKA will now be facing Amherst, NS native JOSH STRICKLAND. Kulka continues to train extremely hard to quickly dispatch of his opponent but Strickland looks to humble the Kulkster in front of his fans.


“Glenn continues to show how he is one of the best all-around athletes the country has ever produced,” said W1 Matchmaker Alex Caporicci. “For him to play junior hockey, be a CFL star, a pro wrestler and now a MMA fighter is incredible. There is not one thing that Glenn has set out to do and has not accomplished. Now he’s set his sights on MMA and I’m excited to see what his future in the sport will bring.”

Heavy Hitters Muay Thai Gear and MMA Equipment


Heavy Hitters Fight Gear - There are many different companies vying for your business in the MMA/Fight Sports world. They all promise high quality products, designed by real fighters, at the lowest prices possible. But, if you just look below the curtain of most of these companies, you'd see that most of these promises aren't all they're cracked up to be. A lot of companies are estranged newcomers that have just started up to cash in on the recent popularity of the MMA craze, and have little to no knowledge about what real fighting is or what real fighters need. One company, though, is breaking that trend, and producing real quality items made for real fighters, and actually developed by a Martial Arts guru with more than forty years of fighting. That company is Heavy Hitters Fight Gear.


Heavy Hitters Fight Gear has been around since before the big MMA popularity bubble burst. They have over twenty years in the business, and run a full line of equipment and apparel, from kenpo gloves to beanies. All of their equipment is U.S. patented, but what makes their line so unique is that it was developed by Grand Master Bob Chaney, an Eighth Dan Black Belt, and rival of Chuck Norris himself. The icing on the cake, though, is Heavy Hitters Martial Arts Team, Team Diamond. Training in the gym named for them in the city of Upland, Team Diamond tests and approves the Heavy Hitter's fight equipment in real, live fights open to the public. With so much going for it, most importantly its blatant authenticity when compared to these other MMA companies, Heavy Hitters is poised to outright steal the sales of them and prove its dominance of all things Fight Sports in these upcoming years.
