-The following is an exerpt from the Miami Sun Sentinel:
UFC champions Antonio “Minotauro” Nogueira and Anderson “Spider” Silva of Brazil have moved to South Florida to open a mixed martial arts academy in downtown Miami.
Nogueira and Silva Mixed Martial Arts Academy is the first academy headed by two current UFC champions. The pair plan on training together, giving seminars and teaching adults and children of all ages and ability levels.
Like they do in Brazil, the academy’s pro fighters will also work with underprivileged children, ages 4-14. In Brazil, Nogueira works with 160 kids, he said.
-The following is from fiveouncesofpain.com with a tap of the gloves to The Wrestling Observer
Din Thomas, Kuniyoshi Hironaka, and Tommy Speer are three fighters involved in the UFC’s latest round of roster cuts, according to a report in the May 7 print edition of the Wrestling Observer.
Looks like the moves keep on coming on the UFC’s part. Thomas especially is a talented lightweight with loads of potential. It should be interesting to see who else goes from the UFC roster and where they end up over the next few months. There are going to be some hot free agents out there.
