Here are several stories in the world of mixed martial arts from the past week. We try to bring you as much original content as possible and also bring you a good overview of all the major news going on, but there are always a few stories we either did not have time to get to, or maybe we did not feel it deserved an entire article. So here’s the Sunday VERY late night link dump:
