Hitting newsstands on May 22.

Thanks to "Jride" for the tip.

Duffee sure is getting a lot of mileage out of his seven-second UFC career. Is he the real deal? Or will the hype come to an end against Mike Russow at UFC 114 on May 29 in Las Vegas?

Not bad for a guy with a 7-second career.

isn’t hype an amazing phenomenon

It is not enough to succeed. Others must fail.

KO’s somebody in their first UFC fight in 7 sec breaking their fast KO record then walks up to the camera man saying “Dana, that was an appetizer. Give me a meal!” deserves to be talked about. lol However, he may be another Houston Alexander. We’ll have to wait and see.

Fedor played Russian Roulette with a fully loaded gun and won... but still avoids the UFC!

Oh oh, i think i sense some hate around here?

A seven second KO is a lot better than getting leg locked by frank mir long after his quitting point aka getting punched in the face once. This is the era of the superathlete. Duffee has a lot of upside and hopefully dana takes the slow route for him like Jones.

Got to give him credit for riding the promo wave and getting his face out there. I see him winning his next fight and (hopefully) they’ll give him some bigger competition. If he can win this next fight in solid fashion, I’d like to see him fight JDS or Cain.

fastest KO is history?
it would be nice if they said something about fastest KO in UFC history. but even that wouldn’t be true. and if he beats mike russow you think he should get JDS or cain? really? i’d think that he’d need at least one more outing before moving that high up in the ranks.

Appreciate it. MMA needs all sort of spotlight to grow up.

I think it’s a joke that this guy is on a PPV main card just because he scored a fast knock-out in his first fight.. too much hype, not enough to back it up yet. We’ll see I guess.

Knockout Artist? Indeed!

Has finished all his fight (ufc and out) by KO/TKO so id say he is. Everyone sees the potential. hype is def deserved. cant wait for his next fight. hope he lives up to it!

Ill admit, ive been on the todd duffee band wagon since i seen that 7 sec KO

I’m sure this wagon will fill up a little more after 114 is over with.

If Duffee wins this fight he'll probably

get Gabe “The Gate Keeper” Gonzaga for his next fight!

JAB at DUFFY

Ironically, most of fighters have a previous history before they enter the UFC and some of them should have started in the UFC, like Todd Duffy.

Some of these comments are funny and entertaining but some are just off the hook, stoner material.

Todd Duffy is a hard working Genetically Blessed Human! He is a very young kid and if anyone actually saw his knockout, it was a similiar punch that Gonzaga took from Carwina "A short Jab that basically had the Thrashing Machine needing a depend instead of a cup, after the the 7 seconds everyone is stabbing at.

Fact is, if he turns out to be another Houston Alexander, we can count on at least one more hellish knockout, so that theory is up in smoke! Todd Duffy is a very coachable and intellectual fighter that will take advantage of the gifts from above and continue to dominate his way to a Heavy Weight Title shot, after Carwin secure’s that title! Fact is he is in a division that has recently surpassed the talents of the 155 lbs division and their is no free cake walk! I think Gonzaga would be a great 3rd test depending on how decisive this victory is. Dos Sandros would be a big step up and that could very happen after the first fight that Big Country is rubbing his eyes instead of his belly!
