There's so much Chael Sonnen delightfulness going on lately that I don't know what to do with myself. Chael was on TMZ Live and while that show usually makes me cringe, he did such a good job. I just adore that crazy bastard.

Check out Chael Sonnen and Ariel Helwani do battle on "Fighter vs. Writer" on UFC Tonight. They go head-to-head on forcing fighters to take fights, the most underrated fighter in the UFC, and if the media got the Alistair Overeem story wrong.

Stephan Bonnar mentioned this week that he wants everyone to harass Dana White to make him and Forrest Griffin coaches on next season's The Ultimate Fighter so that they can slug it out in a final fight at the end of the season. Which leads me to wonder, Griffin has already beaten Bonnar two times. Do we really want to see them fight again?

It's official! Actually, it's not official at all. Well, it's an official Tweet from Josh Koscheck. Does that even count for anything? Koscheck Tweeted early this morning that he's agreed to a fight with B.J. Penn. Yay! Am I the only one who's super jazzed about this fight? How have we never seen these two fight before? If nothing else I'm just excited at the prospect of BJ fight again. I've missed that adorable little Hawaiian! Should we talk about Koscheck's use of 'bra' or do we let it slide? I haven't decided yet.

UPDATE:

It was fun while it lasted. B.J. Penn said no.

It's fill in the blank time, kids! "Chad George's Octopus tattoo is lovely! If I could have eight of any body part, I would choose____________."

Nick Diaz just can't get a break lately. First, he has to deal with the whole pot thing. Brother man can't enjoy a toke now and then without everyone crawling up his butt about it. Now his name is being dragged through the mud for failing to show up for a charity match against Braulio Estima at the World Jiu-Jitsu Expo this past weekend. As usually happens with these types of things, the 'he said, she said' has now begun.

First we have Braulio Estima. Below we have a video of him talking about his feelings on the matter. While watching this I couldn't help but notice that he had managed to surround himself with a huge number of dudes with cameras. I recognize that I'm certainly not an expert in the BJJ world, so I'd never really heard of this dude before this weekend. You all may have, I didn't. But he's certainly enjoying a large amount of attention in this video. As an attention whore you should trust me on this. We can always smell our own. Would he have received this much media attention if the fight had gone on as planned or if he hadn't been set to fight Diaz? Does anyone here know?

Welcome to this week's installment of "The Fighter We'd Most Like To...". Thanks to everyone who voted last week in our "The Fighter We'd Most Like To Tattoo Our Name Onto Their Body" poll. The winner of last week's poll was Nick Diaz who got 36% of the vote. Congrats!

We have talked previously about which fighter we would like to quit fighting to become an announcer. This was, of course, a completely selfless effort on our part because we were really just thinking about the greater good and the enjoyment of MMA fans all over the world. We're really good people like that. This time around, however, we are taking a completely selfish approach and discussing which fighter we'd like to quit fighting to become our personal assistant, devoted only to us and available to do whatever we ask of them. I know I would enjoy having someone at my beck and call to handle all those little and big things I can't be bothered with. If you had to choose a fighter to fill this position, who would it be? Check out our thoughts on the topic and let us know what you think, too!

Lizzie: I'll say Junior Dos Santos, I need someone who speaks Portuguese and he seems very, very nice.

Keren: It's a toss-up between Ronda Rousey and Marloes Coenen. If someone is going to be my personal assistant they better be cool, smart and kickass. I guess they'll have to fight it out!

Midge: Easy. Kimbo Slice. He not only brings his own 40 hours a week of assistance, but his 8 man posse's assistance as well! Not to mention that his Reality Kings posse happens to be pretty big in the porn industry, which of course, comes with it's own special kind of assistance! You can't beat that.

Mounty: Gina Carano? Sure. She's already quit fighting, so she can be my beautiful amazonian assistant! I'll have another mojito by the poolside, Ms. Carano!

Rachel: I really need a better hype man in my life. I assume this is part of what a personal assistant does. I just want Chael Sonnen to enter the room before I come in and talk about all my wonderful attributes and general awesomeness.
