I don’t know why, but I feel it’s important to note that while Aoki has fought at welterweight in the past, he’s a natural lightweight who has also fought at featherweight. Sakuraba’s sort of the opposite, having often fought at light heavyweight/heavyweight despite being a natural welter- or middleweight. Read more

“I never was some Motörhead superfan, and I’m not going to pretend to have been one” ... but that was the beauty of this fucking ugly band! You didn’t have to be a hardcore fan; once you heard Lemmy, he kinda wormed his way into your DNA, never to leave. They were, to nick a cheesy line from a commercial for an…

As an angsty, basement bound teen in the early cable TV age, this was my proper intro to Motörhead, and still one of my favorite batshit insane TV show/songs to this day.
