Try not to make 'The Goat' angry
by Patrick Reusse - Star Tribune, 7/12/08
Nick Thompson has a hectic few days at the end of this month. He's in the main event for the CBS-televised mixed martial arts event on July 26, a Saturday night, in Stockton, Calif. And then on Tuesday the 29th, he will be starting the two-day bar examination at the Minneapolis Convention Center. "It wasn't supposed to work out this way," Thompson said. "I had a fight in Tokyo in early June. I was going to take two months off and study for the bar." And then they got the call with the offer: Jake Shields, Elite XC's welterweight title bout, main event on CBS. "You can't turn that down -- not me, anyway. And my wife, Molly, agreed with me." <<Full Story>>

Svelter Baroni Rebounds at Cage Rage
by Jim Page - Sherdog, 7/13/08
LONDON -- "New York Badass" Phil Baroni went some way to resurrecting his career Saturday night, with his impressive three-minute destruction of the game, but significantly overmatched Brit Scott Jansen at Cage Rage 27 "Step Up" inside the Wembley Arena. In his first fight at welterweight, Baroni -- who'd spent his entire career at 185 pounds -- imposed his will from the start and scored with a solid takedown. Working from side control, the American came very close to sealing an early finish with a tight straight armbar in which he appeared to hyper-extend Jansen's arm. <<Full Story>>
