Dana White is pumping out some cool stuff on his video blogs. In recent vlogs, White's has chosen to use postfight video of the fighters right after they leave the cage. White's video guy Eliot caught some excellent personal moments.
It's clear White and Quinton Jackson have a unique relationship. They've bickered often in the past through the media, but on fight night you can see how much the boss respects the work done by employees.
A sedate "Rampage" takes a huge needle over his right eye to numb the vicious cut he suffered in the fight against Jon Jones. Rampage asks for his next fight to be on the Japan card next February and White says absolutely.
Jones is also captured after the fight. If you watched the UFC 135 postfight press conference, Jones was very laid back and didn't seem to be in celebratory mode. He made mention that his feet hurt, but hid well how badly he was hurting. You can see in the vlog that he can barely walk.
The same goes for Aaron Riley, who suffered a broken jaw. As the doctors check out both Riley and his opponent Tony Ferguson, Riley can barely speak because of his injury.
The guy in the best shape on the video may be Nate Diaz, who dominated Takanori Gomi. His brother Nick comes back to greet him and the fighters are asked to take a photo. Nick's fight against Georges St-Pierre was four weeks away at the time, but he is shredded.

While Spike TV no longer will air live UFC events after this year, its existing contract allows it to air the UFC library (including past events, former "TUF" seasons, "UFC Unleashed" episodes and specialty programming) in 2012. However, as long as Spike TV has the rights to the content, it can't air programming ? including live events ? from other organizations, such as Bellator, until 2013.
The UFC could make try to buy back the library, but it's unlikely that they will make an offer. The last thing they want to do is hand over the audience they have spent six years building over to Bellator. The tournament-based promotion has been little more than a thorn in the UFC's side, but it could pick up many fans with a Spike deal that would trump Bellator's current deal with MTV2.
But Spike has its own way of dealing with the break-up. Say, counter-programming every UFC card that airs on Fox, starting with the Nov. 12 bout:
On Nov. 12, Spike TV will air a "UFC Unleashed" marathon ? dubbed "Dos Santos vs. Velasquez: Unleashed for the Heavyweight Title" ? featuring past fights with UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez and Junior Dos Santos.
This is likely a tactic that won't work out well for Spike in the ratings department, as fans would always prefer live MMA over taped, but it will help them work out their feelings about the break-up. It's OK, Spike. It takes time to heal. Just remember the good times, like the first "Ultimate Fighter" and the first time you had to bleep out a Dana White cuss word.

Tony Ferguson was a beast at 170 pounds. At 155, he looked beyond scary.
Aaron Riley is a seasoned veteran but he couldn't deal with the length and power from the 5-foot-11 Ferguson. Riley made it through the first round, but told his corner that his jaw was broken and the fight was stopped giving Ferguson a first round TKO win at UFC 135.
"I'm ecstatic. I wish I could've given the crowd a little better show. I wish I went a little further," said Ferguson.
[Related: Complete recap of UFC 135]
The crowd more than got its money's worth watching Ferguson's offensive and defensive boxing. According to Compustrike, Ferguson outlanded Riley 28-14 in power strikes.
Just over two minutes into the fight, Ferguson landed a massive left uppercut on the right side of Riley's jaw. Riley's eyes rolled back and he began to open and close his mouth.

Riley retreated and got slugged by some more shots, but he was in big trouble. Riley (30-13-1, 3-5 UFC) fired back with some good kicks, but you could see there was a major issue as he would look to the side every so often and spit out blood.
Ferguson (13-3) credited his movement against the southpaw as the reason his offense worked so well.
"We worked a lot of slipping [punches]. We worked really hard on fighting a southpaw," said Ferguson, who likes being down at lightweight. He won TUF 13 as a welterweight. "I feel kind of skinny. I have some more ripples in my stomach. It's kind of cool, but I think this a nice little home for me."
[Related: After yet another thorough win, can anybody stop Jon Jones?]
It was a tough night for the veteran Riley, who first fought in the UFC back in 2002 at UFC 137. He'd been away from active fighting since May of 2010 nursing injuries. He actually suffered a broken jaw once before against Spencer Fisher back in 2006 at Ultimate Fight Night 3. He had to quit after the first round that night as well.

Quinton Jackson has made a lot bold statements about the direction of his career and in most cases changed his mind a few days later. Now the 33-year-old is talking about a boxing career. Will he go through with it?
Jackson is annoyed with the direction of MMA. While he's become a one-dimensional fighter, who's always looking to land the right hand, he's seeing the young guns at 205 pounds becoming more and more athletic.
"I hate fighting people who are scared. When you fight somebody who is scared you never know what they're going to do. They turn and run," Jackson told the ESPN U.K. podcast. "That's why I'm gonna go to boxing. I'm gonna try boxing because they've got to stand with you. If I get knocked out I don't care because at least it's a fight."
Jackson is coming off a fight where he couldn't touch UFC light heavyweight champ Jon Jones for 15-plus minutes. Jones used his 84-inch reach and kicks to keep Jackson at long range. When the space closed, Jackson swung away like a maniac, but Jones just scooted out of the pocket.
Jackson became a crossover star with his role in "The A-Team," but that mean anyone outside of MMA will care if he moves over to boxing?
"I've tried a lot of boxing, I'm falling in love with boxing and I know I can put butts on seats over there." said Jackson.
Keep in mind, Jackson fights at 205 pounds and walks around at anywhere between 225-250 pounds. Boxing's heavyweight division could use an infusion of American draws, but could a guy with zero pro fights in the sport fill anything bigger than a 2,000 seat arena?
On top of that, Jackson will have to leave the UFC to move over to boxing. Based on previous discussions with Zuffa management, there's no way a fighter under contract with the UFC would be allowed to potentially scar his reputation by boxing. Long story short, Rampage will "change his mind" about boxing in the next few days.

Floyd Mayweather is fed up with HBO's Larry Merchant. So are some viewers including UFC president Dana White. Before UFC 135, White critiqued the postfight clash between Merchant and boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr.
"This guy always jumps in and is always saying bad stuff about people. And he's attacking Floyd about the punch. Well, how about the headbutt? It's my big beef with Merchant for years, these guys just get done fighting and he jumps in the rings and starts saying off-the-wall, weird, rude [expletive] to these guys," said White (7:11 mark).
"I thought that was really embarrassing for HBO. The guy is senile. He's out of his mind," said White. "He's up there berating Floyd, but Floyd can't say anything back to you? You've been disrespecting guys your whole career. Guess what, you can go back 60 years, you're not kicking Floyd's ass. Give me a break."
Merchant was recently asked about White's comment and served him a backhanded compliment:
"Let's see, anyone who can make a multimillion dollar business out of street fighting has to be respected. My opinion is that anyone is allowed to put up a tent, put on a show, and invite people to come. And obviously he's had a lot of success," Merchant told Boxing Scene. "Good for him. I don't watch it. I don't get a so-called sport in which you can have a 6-2 record and be called a world champion. I just don't appreciate the finer points of MMA."
Check out White's other concerns about the Mayweather-Ortiz fight. He believes that referee Joe Cortes lost control of the bout (0:40-7:09 mark - NSFW).

Dominick Cruz is already back in the Octagon. It seems like Cruz just fought Urijah Faber. After a grinding five round war won by Cruz in early July, the UFC bantamweight champ will defend his title against Demetrious Johnson this weekend at UFC on Versus 6.
It's a bit unusual for a fighter to turn around in three months to take another fight, but that's what the lower level fighters bring to the table. There is no getting out of shape or need for a massive weight cut.
Cruz is facing the diminutive, but super-active Johnson. Thus far in the WEC and UFC, the 25-year-old Johnson (10-1) has completely confused his opponents. Sound familiar? It's exactly what Cruz does with his constant movement.
In the video by Shoot, Cruz says that'll be the difference on Saturday in Washington, D.C.� Johnson will be thrown off by an opponent who is finally dipping and darting.

Jon Jones is still learning on the job. Being a big star fighter and genuinely dumping on your opponent isn't easy. Quinton "Rampage" Jackson may not be the fighter he was in his twenties, but he's better than ever when it comes to delivering awesome lines to denigrate his opponent.
In a piece of marketing genius, the fighters appeared together on "The Jimmy Kimmel Show." Jackson stole the moment. That's not a rip on Jones, he's simply not seasoned enough and frankly, it's just not in his nature to trash talk in brash fashion.
Jones defends his UFC light heavyweight title belt against Jackson, a former 205-pound UFC champ, in Saturday's main event at UFC 135.
Jackson dropped some classic lines about Jones being cocky (1:04 mark). He also countered Jones talk about being a criminal justice major by saying he understands now why the young man would've been a great detective (2:40 mark). That was a thinly-veiled shot about the fighter's spygate scandal a few weeks back. Jackson's funniest material was about his mother not being welcomed at fights (3:12 mark).
SB Nation doesn't give Jones an out on this one. That site says Jones loses in these exchanges because he's a phony.
At today's final prefight presser, there were more contentious exchanges between champ and challenger.
"I'm glad Jon Jones is underestimating me. He'll be very surprised on Saturday. I think this is the best camp of my career because I was very motivated," Jackson said. "Muscle Farm had a great facility. It was state of the art. I haven't been this motivated in a long time."
Jones doesn't understand where the "underestimating" stuff is coming from.
" I'm positive that I've never stated that Rampage doesn't have the tools to beat me. Never did I say that in any interviews. He's a unified Champion and has knocked out some of the best in the world. I'm not underestimating Rampage at all. That would be a very, very ignorant thing for me to do, to underestimate somebody with such a great status," said Jones.
But he does believe older fighters are easier to beat because of accumulated damage.
"I think a big part of getting knocked out, it comes more and more with the older guys in the sport. Your ability to take punches goes away. I have a fresh chin. I have a fresh passion and a fresh heart and I think that's gonna get me out of a lot of things. I have a passion to not wanna get hit and because of how serious I take this sport, that's why my chin hasn't been tested. I put a lot of time in evading and movements," said Jones.

Hominick, who spoke to Cagewriter as part of a lobbying trip to Ottawa, Can., said that he will use the turmoil of the year in his December fight.
"The passing of Shawn was obviously beyond a shocker. He was the best man in my wedding. He was more than just a mentor in the sport. He became a life mentor for me. That's a huge void, but everyone on our team has stepped up. We became closer because of it, because we know we all have to step up to try to fill that void. It's our duty to carry on his legacy: to keep training, to keep winning, to keep performing in the cage."
Hominick, along with Team Tompkins members Chris Horodecki and Sam Stout (Tompkins' brother-in-law), is focused on continuing the Team Tompkins legacy.
"This is going on 15 years that we've all been together. We're a very tight-knit group, and that's what we're trying to stress right now. To keep that unity. Even Shawn's dad stepped up. Shawn's dad came into the gym and talked to the group, and Shawn's brothers. Just kind of letting everyone know that we're not sitting idly by. We're working for his legacy."
That loss to Aldo came during UFC 129, the UFC's biggest event. It took place in the sold-out Rogers Centre, just an hour from Hominick's hometown of London, Ont. He says that being in that fight taught him what it means to be at the top of the heap, and how much he wants to get back there.
"There's a lot of extra pressure, a lot of extra time and a lot of extra commitment for being the title contender. Being the hometown guy in the biggest show in UFC history in an arena an hour from where I lived definitely overwhelmed me at times, so I have a newfound respect for it. I know I have to make certain changes to make sure that not only can I make it there, but I'm staying at the top."
Hominick's next bout will again take place in Toronto. He won't have the pressure of being a co-main eventer, but he will have to face the always difficult Jung. He plans to draw on the experiences of his WEC win over Leonard Garcia.
"It's going to be pretty similar to the Leonard Garcia fight. Very similar, very wild. The main thing is just getting a wide variety of sparring partners. You've got to get someone who is all over the place."
For the first time, Hominick will come to the Octagon as a father. His daughter was born weeks after the loss to Aldo. He says that his daughter's birth hasn't changed him as a fighter, but does add some perspective to his days.
"She puts a smile on my face. I started learning that it's not your time any more. It's their time. They're the moments of the day that matter."

Rashad Evans loves screwing with Jon Jones, so it doesn't come as a shocker that a little over 24 hours away from Jones' showdown against Quinton Jackson, "Suga" is now leaning towards "Rampage" at UFC 135.
Evans got a chance to see how serious Jackson was training for the fight:
"Yeah. I went to Muscle Pharm yesterday and I walked through the facility and I seen some of the things that he was doing and then I seen him and he was looking good, better than I've ever seen him before and I was actually really surprised. I just think that a guy like that that can get focused and get dialed Is a dangerous guy if he can get focused and dialed in. I think Jon Jones' mistake is he thinks he's too good right now. He thinks he can't be beat," Evans told 106.7 The Fan.
He also has extensive first-hand experience training with Jones and believe he may break at some point tomorrow night.
"Well, I've seen him get pushed in practice and I've seen him be very human and not as good as he looks on TV. I've seen that there's times where he looks great in practice but there's times where I've seen him quit in practice," said Evans.
Evans was really selling Jackson hard:
"A Rampage that's focused is a dangerous Rampage and I think that the biggest problem with Jon Jones is the fact that he's getting so overly confident and cocky that he can't get beat and all he has to do is step in the cage Saturday and collect his belt. I think that's dangerous thinking when you've got somebody in front of you who's been training hard."
Wow, the drama continues on "as the UFC light heavyweights turn." Keep in mind, earlier in the week Evans was having a tough time picking Jackson.
"I think that Jon Jones uses his range and his speed to keep Rampage off balance and at the same time using his ability to take Rampage down to try to impose some of his will. I think Jon tries to get it done, I think he does it standing up," said Evans.

Yahoo! Sports' lead MMA writer Kevin Iole joined "The MMA Insiders" show in Las Vegas to give his plays for UFC 135.
From a gambling standpoint, this is an interesting card to breakdown. The main and co-main events feature veteran fighters tabbed as massive underdog. Who has a better shot - Quinton Jackson or Matt Hughes? Adam Hill from the Las Vegas Review-Journal made a strong case for Hughes over Josh Koscheck.
Three weeks ago, Koscheck seemed to prepping for a fight at middleweight at UFC 139 in November. When Diego Sanchez dropped off this card with an injury, Koscheck jumped at the chance to fight Hughes. He looked good at the UFC weigh-in yesterday.
There's heavy public steam on some of the undercard favorites. That's pushing the numbers through the roof.
UFC 135 betting odds (Courtesy Cantor Gaming Las Vegas):
Best plays in bold
Jon Jones (-500) vs. Quinton Jackson (+375) - Light heavyweight title
Matt Hughes (+375) vs. Josh Koscheck (-500) - Welterweight
Mark Hunt (+270) vs. Ben Rothwell (-350) - Heavyweight
Rob Broughton (+300) vs. Travis Browne (-380) - Heavyweight
