Surprisingly Busy MMA Newsday in Pictures Alert!: UFC Castaways, Announcer Transitions (Thank God), and Boxers in MMA



Shane Carwin has retired. The former Interim heavyweight champ went further in the sport in a short period of time than the other 99% of combat athletes can claim. Impressive, sir.
Retiring with your only two losses coming to JDS and the belt-holder at the time Brock Lesnar....not bad either.







The awkwardness is palpable....even now.
 Mauro Ranallo the hyperbolic shouting nonsensical madman from EliteXC and other promotions is thankfully moving more into boxing commentating.
Tyrone Spong's visa issues kept him off of WSOF 3, but he'll be doing a NY kickboxing tourney in the interim potentially pocketing 200k if he wins. I'm fairly certain that's more than he'd make for busting up some can with no wrestling in WSOF.
