AMA Fight Club & NECO.com Take Care Of MMAWeekly Fans

Just hours before UFC 104 began, head trainer for AMA Fight Club, Mike Constantino, got word that he along with sponsor NECO.com had some extra tickets to the Staples Center event featuring the headlining bout between champion, Lyoto Machida and Mauricio "Shogun" Rua.

Instead of trying to sell the tickets, Constantino made a call to MMAWeekly.com and asked if any of the fans of our site would like a pair of tickets to the event that night.

The call went out over MMAWeekly's official Twitter page (www.twitter.com/mmaweeklycom) and within a few minutes the responses flooded in for the chance to get tickets to go to the event.

The lucky winners, Brian Ferguson and Kevin Cheek, not only got tickets to UFC 104 that night, but they had the tickets hand delivered to them by UFC middleweight contender, Dan Miller, who along with his coach gave the fans their tickets, posed for pictures and gave the fans autographs.

MMAWeekly would like to say a special thanks to Mike Constantino, Dan Miller, the AMA Fight Club, and NECO.com for taking care of the fans once again with an awesome prize package for UFC 104!

Houston Alexander Requests NSAC License; UFC 109 at Mandalay?

The Nevada State Athletic Commission Wednesday released the agenda for a Nov. 4 tele-meeting to discuss current business.

Two items on the agenda stood out:

1) A request from Houston Alexander for a fight license (all fighters over 35 must do so when their previous license runs out).

2) A request from Zuffa, LLC to hold an MMA event at the Mandalay Bay Events Center on Feb. 6.

Alexander (14-4-1) reportedly announced he'd be fighting Kevin "Kimbo Slice" Ferguson at UFC 107 on his Nebraska radio show, and subsequently sealed his lips when the inevitable media calls came in.

UFC president Dana White declined to confirm the match-up at a press conference for UFC 104 last week.

Last month, Alexander secured a future in the UFC--for the meantime--with a victory over Sherman Pendergarst at Adrenaline IV, which is promoted by his manager Monte Cox.

Slice is currently in Miami and commuting to American Top Team for his next fight. He has been mum about his next opponent in media appearances.

White Says Reports of Kimbo Favoritism False

Dana White is hopping mad at Roy Nelson and promises fireworks between them as "TUF 10" progresses.

At a gathering of reporters Thursday following the UFC 104 press conference, White fired back at allegations Nelson made of favoritism towards Kevin "Kimbo Slice" Ferguson, whom Nelson defeated in the quarterfinals of the show.

In an interview with USA Today following Episode 3 of the show, Nelson said concessions were made with Slice that no other fighter received.

"Kimbo's the only one that I know that had an entourage there; he actually had his family there, his management, while the rest of us kind of had to suffer," said Nelson. "The UFC made, we'll say, different concessions for Kimbo. I think he had a media room."

Meanwhile, Nelson pointed the finger at White, whom he publicly called a "puppet master."

"He's on the show saying we did that show for Spike after, where he's saying Kimbo's list, anything Kimbo put down, he got in minutes," said White on Thursday. "We'd write it down, we wouldn't get it for two days. What a bunch of crybabies. Let me tell you what: not only did Kimbo not get any special treatment on the show... the only difference between Kimbo and all the other guys was that if Kimbo made it into the UFC, he had a bigger contract than the other guys. That's it. I said that the day we did media day before the show even started. It kills me."

White went off on allegations that Kimbo got special communication privileges, particularly, the use of a phone during the show.

"Roy Nelson is a moron," said White. "He's an idiot. The guy really is that dumb. Never once did this guy use the phone to call anybody, and you'll actually see later on as the show progresses, there's a situation that happens where I have to get on the phone, and then I put (Kimbo) on the phone. He didn't get any special privileges, and even if he did, I'D (EXPLETIVE) TELL YOU! You're damn right, we gave special privileges, we pulled seven million viewers with him. If he wants to use the phone, he can use the (expletive) phone. He didn't. We didn't give him any special privileges. Roy Nelson is a moron. Interview him sometime, you'll find out."

Nelson was unavailable for comment on White's remarks.

Dana White Fires Back at Rampage's Editing Complaints

LOS ANGELES -- UFC president Dana White doesn't buy Quinton "Rampage" Jackson's claims he was poorly edited on "TUF 10."

Posting on his personal blog last week, Jackson decried the show's portrayal of him and his team as they dealt with a disastrous showing in team competition.

"They edited the show to make me look like I didn't care about my team, but as you can clearly see I was coaching against a T.U.F. show champion and he came from the Ultimate Fighter so he knows how to play the camera and be fake," wrote Jackson.

Evans, the opposing coach on the show and TUF champion in question, has led his team to a complete shutout of Team Jackson, and has not been shy about gloating to "Rampage."

At a gathering of reporters following the press conference for UFC 104, White, in so many words, told Jackson to suck it up.

"When you don't look good on the show--editing, editing!" White said. "It is what it is. There's no way to edit. We don't dub him. We don't voice him over. People don't like the way they look sometimes on the show. I've been not crazy about the way I look on the show sometimes. It happens."

White and Jackson have hit the skids following Jackson's decision to portray B.A. Baracus on the upcoming movie remake of "The A-Team." Weeks after Jackson's announcement he would retire from fighting, the two are still on the outs, though White said he wished Jackson luck if he truly wanted to pursue acting.

However, when asked Thursday if he would meet with Jackson to smooth the situation over, White said, "if he wants to meet, he can come down here and meet with me. I'm not going to chase him."
