Alistair Overweight? "The Reem," who was unable to fight Junior dos Santos at UFC 160 due to injury, was snapped by MediaTakeOut.com prancing on the beach with his lady friend in tow. Did "Demolition Man" blow up in between training camps? Or is the hulking Dutchman the victim of bad angles? Remember, the camera adds 10 pounds...
Pic: Jon Jones Gets Stitches Out, 'Feelin' Good'
UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones is on the mend from his awful toe injury (see .gif here), which he suffered during his lopsided thumping of Chael Sonnen at UFC 159 last month. The latest update comes on the heels of "great news" last week that his toe was just dislocated and healing ahead of schedule. Indeed, it seems as though the gruesome injury will have little -- if any -- impact on keeping him out of action for an extended period of time. Yea baby!

Pic: Antonio Silva weighing 270lbs two weeks before UFC 160 showdown with Cain Velasquez
-- UFC heavyweight Antonio Silva posted a picture of his weight as of Friday (May 10, 2013) on his official Twitter account just over two weeks prior to his UFC 160 title showdown with Cain Velasquez. “Bigfoot” is the physically largest heavyweight on the UFC roster, as he has to cut down to the 265-pound divisional limit. Silva will likely have a 25-35 pound weight advantage over Velasquez on the night of the fight, which could help him earn a victory.
Pic: Hector Lombard tweets picture of grotesque cauliflower ear
-- UFC middleweight (and perhaps future welterweight) Hector Lombard recently posted a picture of his cauliflower ear on his official Twitter account, and the mixed martial arts (MMA) community collectively vomited. There are some nasty cauliflower ears in the sport, but Lombard’s is the kind that will haunt your nightmares for the coming weeks.
Pic: Roy Nelson issues heartfelt farewell to retired UFC foe Shane Carwin
Even though "Bi-polar" Shane Carwin called Roy Nelson "fat" and hurt his feelings, "Big Country" was willing to put their rivalry aside to wish him a fond farewell on Facebook. These two power-punching foes were expected to slug it out last December, but the recently-retired "Engineer" succumbed to one of his many injuries and would never return. That makes Nelson sad. Sincere? Or sarcasm?
