Jake Shields has won his last 12 fights in a row, but that hasn't done anything to shake Jason "Mayhem" Miller's confidence going into tomorrow night's grudge match. The Bully Beatdown host, whose own fighting record stands at an impressive 22-6, says he's ready to tear it up in the ring -- and take his old friend Jake for a ride he'll never forget.
Take another look at our exclusive sit-down with Mayhem and hear how he plans to out-grapple, out-fight and outmaneuver Jake, then tune into CBS tomorrow night to find out which of these two worthy opponents will walk away with the Strikeforce middleweight title!
We saw so many great fights this season we're having trouble picking out a favorite. So we thought we'd narrow it down to our top and let you guys decide which fighter had the best beatdown of the season. Think it was Andrei "Shut Em' Out" Arlovski? Eddie "Take The Money And Run" Alvarez? Or how about Tony "DQ" Bonnello or Jake "I Want Mayhem" Shields? Take a look at our six favorite fighters and tell us whose fight packed the most punch.
By now, you probably heard that Jason "Mayhem" Miller will be taking on Rumble on the Rock champ Jake Shields for the Strikeforce middleweight title. So how does Mayhem feel about going against his old pal (and Bully Beatdown pro) Jake? "Friends fighting is business," he told us, sounding completely serious (for once). Hear why Mayhem says he's got the edge in this face-off ("I'm a lot more well-rounded") plus listen up as he delivers a personal message to Jake: "I'm gonna try to take your head off and knock your Chiclets down your throat."

The bigger they are, the harder they fall. Or, in Garrett's case, the quicker they tuck themselves into a neat little ball and wait til the ref orders the big bad fighter man to make the hitting stop. Hear what Bully Beatdown's resident recapper (and referee) Big John McCarthy thinks about Garrett's grappling skills plus watch NFLer Michael Westbrook turn the show's craziest contestant into a cowering man-ball one more time!
Anyone who's followed Mayhem's career knows the man will do whatever it takes to win a fight. But it wasn't until we sat down with him that we found out the dude wasn't above throwing down with his old man. Hear the Bully Beatdown host get nostalgic about the first time he beat (up) his pops, and check back soon to find out who the MMA master's takin' on in the ring.
We weren't exactly putting our money on Colt tonight but we at least expected the kid to put up a fight! Instead, we got to watch Tony Lopez sweep on in, shove Colt's face into the mat and send that redneck all the way back to 'braska. So where'd Colt go wrong? Listen to Big John's breakdown of tonight's fight and find out why DJ Timmy went home a very happy vic.
When the developers at EA games ranked a bunch of MMA fighters for an upcoming game, they made a HUGE mistake by putting Jason "Mayhem" Miller towards the bottom of the pack. Not only does dude have awesome combat skills -- he's also got a gnarly temper (and zero prob whatsoever punching some nerdy developers in the face). So how'd he take the news? Watch a video of Mayhem's freakout at PlanetXbox360, then check back tomorrow for an all new ep of Bully Beatdown, plus a one-on-one with Mr. Miller.
Up until now, every fight we've seen on Bully Beatdown has had a clear winner -- and a loser. But tonight, MMA fighter Tony "The Gun" Bonello broke every rule in the ring by delivering a swift kick to Wes' head, and earning himself an automatic DQ. And as if that wasn't weird enough, when The Meat Stick came to (it was scary for a minute there!), he decided he wasn't down with winning on a technicality -- so he handed over all $6,000 to his vic, Chris!
+ Think Bonello deserved to lose the fight over a low blow? And, more importantly, did Wes make the right call by giving away the cash money? Sound off in the comments, plus take our poll and let us know whether this week's bully won fair and square.
Jason "Mayhem" Miller has no problem speaking his mind on -- and off -- the show. So what's been occupying his thoughts recently? We checked out his latest Twitter posts and found out dude's been writing about everything from Dr. Drew to Old Man Miller's undershirts. Feast yer eyes on a few of the Bully Beatdown host's sweetest tweets and check back here next week for an exclusive video interview with the man himself!
We don't like Nathan any more than you do. And if there's anyone who deserves to get his face smashed into the mats -- or, better yet, the cage -- it's that guy. But as much as we like vigilante justice (we send 'em our bullies, Jason "Mayhem" Miller sentences 'em to a world of pain), we think Andrei "The Pit Bull" Arlovski might've been a little a hard on this week's Human Punching Bag.
+ Think Arlovski should've shown Nasty Nate a little leniency, given that dude was waaaaaay outta his league? Or should the MMA fighters always go all out, regardless of the bully's fightin' skillz (or lack thereof)? Take our poll and tell us whether you think dem bullies deserve a fightin' chance!
