Kevin Marshall's America
This week on Mixed Marshall Arts
As you may or may not know, I have another blog called Mixed Marshall Arts covering the world of combat sports & entertainment: MMA, boxing, and pro wrestling. Here’s a list of what’s gone down recently…
- Fedor Emelianenko is Officially Done Fighting
After an easy first round knockout of Pedro Rizzo, Fedor Emelianenko announced his retirement from MMA. Video courtesy IronForgesIron.com: In attendance were Fedor’s entire family and Vladimir Putin. Because I’ve mentioned him, I’m bound by international law to reproduce this very real undoctored photo of him from a shoot with … Continue reading →
- You know who else pulled guard? Jesus.

- ARES Fight Night IX Results: Night of Close Fights; Locals Williams, Miller, and Kuhn Victorious
Really interesting night of fights at ARES Promotions’ Fight Night IX. I filed with the Knick Ledger and the article should be up on their site tomorrow morning. I’ll let you all know when it’s posted. Crowd was about 3/4ths capacity. Mike Faragon was supposed to headline, but injured his … Continue reading →
