Yup, n00b here and all. I used to write about college football for a living, but after changing careers, I don't get the chance to write as much as I'd like to, so I'll just be providing some MMA fodder each week. Love it, hate it, as long as you read it, it's all cream cheese. Respond if you want to. Love/hate/whatever. I like this site and wanna get the ball rolling on some interesting discussions.
BTW, I get my rankings from FightMatrix, they're the deepest service I've found and are very up-to-date.

1. Sarah Kaufman: Defeated Takayo Hashi in a dominant decision to win the Strikeforce Women's Bantamweight Championship. 2.
