Around SBN: Indy 500: 'Greatest Spectacle In Racing' Set For Sunday

UFC 144 video trailer, Japanese anime style

I think I'm turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so.

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) will return to the "Land of the Rising Sun" for the first time in more than a decade when the world's largest mixed martial arts (MMA) promotion brings UFC 144 to the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan, this upcoming Saturday (Feb. 25, 2012).

And while you won't see grandiose entrances like you did back in PRIDE FC, or freak-show fights and masked combatants, you will see a little Japanese flavor when you taste some of the local marketing efforts to help garner interest in this weekend's combat sports extravaganza, evidenced by the video above.

Can you dig it?

Sarah,

And I seem to remember a "long way to the top if you wanna rock'n'roll" reference at some point

"I swear to God, David. I'm going to fucking shoot you. I'm going to shoot you. I'm going to shoot David Haye. Listen, I'm going to physically shoot David Haye. He fucking glassed me. He glassed me. He glassed me. I'm not having it.

If David don't fight me, Adam, I'm telling you God honest truth. I'm going to physically, yeah, burn him. So you tell him I say that. His entourage ain't got nothing on my entourage."

NOOOOO WAY

This is a joke lol, this is not a real add!

MMA Underground was trying to use this add to show, “The difference between western and eastern cultures”, Lol can they not clearly hear “protect my balls” like 5 times in that song!

by MMAPride on Feb 21, 2012 6:42 PM EST reply actions

Anyone who actually reflects eastern culture from this should be shot for their close minded views…

I expect to see that picture with Dana in some future posts.

Awesome!

Do not. I repeat, do not, go to mma-core.com. I made the mistake of watching a couple UFC 108 bouts on there and I am still trying to get all the viruses off my computer. Ridiculous! You've been warned.

THAT'S FIGHTING LOVE!!

Best part of this would be Bruce Buffer’s side to side card pointing. “Introducing first (left, right, left, right again…. left) FIGHTING out of the blue corner…”
