    I love Frankie Edgar, but Benson is a well deserved champion

  2. Ninja Oreo Dollop says:

    JDS had a similar welcoming when he returned to Brazil with the belt.

    Hey Pedro,

    I think your links are messed up. I click on one to go to the next page and it puts me in another article.

    Also can we have full access to the site through the mobile version? I like the mobile layout but it feels restricted compared to the actual site man. I am unable to switch over to the desktop version of the site.

    • Working on that issue -It does the same thing for me too – with us upgrading our entire server network there are still some bugs that need to be worked out. But Tech is on em!

      Thanks for your patience -

      Also, mobile should be able to click over, but it’s not you are right and that is news to me – I just sent a note to tech to fix it!

      thanks again man, sorry for the troubles!

  4. 김지훈 says:

    BJ is Korean too!

    대 ! 한 ! 민 ! 국 !

  5. James Kim says:

    Man I’m so happy for Ben. I wish the UFC can come to Korea but the reality is the market value will suck here. MMA isn’t too popular here I hop Ben can change all that. I would jizz my pants when UFC one day have an event here lol.

    • Jimbo says:

      they need to have a new version of chess boxing, except you play starcraft, and instead of boxing you have an MMA fight…Then South Korea would be all over it.

    • TYman says:

      MMA isn’t popular in Korea? You either haven’t been in Korea very long, or are very young. MMA is very popular here.. and a UFC event in Seoul would sell out pretty damn quickly.. if not by all Koreans, then surely by the amount of foreigners and US military that live here..

  6. nasdarq says:

    Well deserved. Congrats to the 155 champ

  7. bescareshomie says:

    Dude, Bendo was born in Colorado. He’s not a native of Korea.

    Pedro, please let me edit your posts, bro. I’ll do it for free. You need some help, though.

  8. momo says:

    was he even in a fight????

  9. Jenson says:

    I love Benson! Go Bendo!!!
