Podcast Ep67 ~ Ultimate Beatdown 10

It's Ep67 and today we are covering the War in Johor

Ultimate Beatdown 10


We thought we would forgo the whole fight sound recording thing (mainly because the Commentator was actually fighting) and so some of us wanted to really watch the fights. The present full MMANewsAsia staff were all present The Editor, The Coffee Boy and even The Dinner Lady.

So what we decided to do was a show of pre and post event interviews and stuff and that's exactly what we have got with a wide guest list:

Matt Pellino, Luc Rousseau, Majee Overall, Pete Davis, Chin Yik, A-Joy, E-Joy, Nik Harris, Brad Robinson, Trinty, Fauzie Fay, Kim Tan, Sabastion Cole and probably others!

Todays guest is Nik The Bloodhound Harris who is due to fight Brad The Vanilla Gorilla Robinson (our guest on Ep65) at Ultimate Beatdown 10 at the De’Bali Bar and Bistro in Joho Bahru on September 15th.

Nik is one of those guys who just buzzes with life and positivity.

Ep65 Brad Robinson The Vanilla Gorilla

Welcome to Ep65 of the MMANewsAsia.com podcast





Our guest today is going to be fighting at Ultimate Beatdown 10 in Johor Bahru against Nik Harris. It's Brad Robinson The Vanilla Gorilla.

Turns out he's a very easy guy to talk to and he knows plenty about MMA which means he's a lot more fun than me to listen to.

We talk about lots of stuff including Strikeforce, Bellator and of course this weekends upcoming ONE FC event.

MMANewsAsia Ep63 Guest EJ Calvo from Pacific X-Treme Combat (PXC)


Welcome to Ep63 and our Guest EJ Calvo 


EJ Calvo from Pacific X-Treme Combat (PXC)

Well what a kerfuffle! All seemed to be going well with this show until I came back to add the finishing touches.

Somewhere in the recording of this show on my end of things a horrible echo was set up and I carried on not realising it was actually recording into the system.

So I had two options scrap it or do some serious production work - ten hours later we have a show!
So heres what I had to do, in fact forget that listen to the show I explain it all!

Our guest today is EJ Clavo from the Pacific X-Treme Combat Organisation (PXC). This is one of the top organisations in Asian MMA and next weekend they will have PXC 33 in Manila, The Philippines with an expected live TV audience of around 500,000 screaming MMA fans probably making it the most watched live MMA event in Asia.

Anyway, you don’t need to hear all this stuff it’s podcast time,  so give it a listen and if you like it tell your friends and share away.

Our Intro Music is by Stratovarius and you can get at at iTunes HERE or via the Amazon link on the right of this page
Our outro music today is Clocks from Coldplay (Always reminds me of Loveline if you know that show!)  and you can get it HERE

It's quite surprising to me that with the large numbers of listeners of the show, that nobody bothers to comment on what  we do. So a plea. We would like to to hear what you guys do and do not like about our shows



MMAMewsAsia Podcast Ep61 Will The Kill Chope and Mikey Rukus


MMAMewsAsia Podcast Ep61 Will The Kill Chope and Mikey Rukus


Hello Dear listener and welcome to Ep61





Who thought we would get this far? Not me that’s for sure.

It’s been a tough week, guests have fallen by the wayside on a daily basis and it looked like there would be no-show; but from the ashes we managed to pull together two last-minute guests, one of whom came out of the recording studio to speak to us.

Regular listeners should know both these names, The Kill is an Asian based American who has fought for many of the local organisations and Mikey Rukus is an American who writes walk in music for all sorts of fighters and MMA organisations. 

We discuss Will’s latest fights, some of the ONE FC card, what makes Phuket Top Team so good. And Mikey gives us a catch up on his life since our last interview. This is a guy who is on the up and up (He has just done the  walk out music for Shogun Rua) and we wish him all the best.

Anyway, you don’t need to hear all this stuff it’s podcast time  so give it a listen and if you like it tell your friends and share away.

Anyway, you don’t need to hear all this stuff it’s podcast time  so give it a listen and if you like it tell your friends and share away.

Podcast ~ Ep59 MMA Talk, MASMMA, ONE FC, Strikeforce

Published on July 18, 2012 by The Editor in PODCAST

Ep59 MMA Talk, MASMMA, ONE FC, Strikeforce

OK well it’s Ep59 and well we mainly talk bollocks.

There are no glamorous guests, just the miserable duo of The Editor and The Coffee Boy and oh do these two go on. I advise you all to give this show a miss. Honestly these guys are rubbish. 

If you do want to risk it; well we discuss the proposed Malaysian MMA Association which turns into one hell of a long bit, ultimately we discuss our hopes and our fears for this proposed group. 

We also look at the latest announced ONE FC match-ups and also do a bit of a Strikeforce round-up. Somewhere in there these two clowns also discuss the Silva Vs Sonnen bout, oh you know like weeks after the event, because, well because that’s how these two roll!

Anyway, you don’t need to hear all this stuff, it’s podcast time  so give it a listen and if you like it tell your friends and share away.

Podcast Ep58 PRO Fightings Royal Chiou Guests

It’s Podcast Time and our Guest is Royal Chiou from PRO Fighting



A refreshingly honest and down to earth individual Royal Chiou from Pacific Rim Organized Fighting in Taiwan is todays guest.

In Royal we have a guest who is a no hype, no bullshit type of guy who would welcome some competition in the Taiwan MMA scene to help it  grow and flourish.

He talks about the show that is PRO Fighting, the difficulty with keeping a fight card together when fighters keep pulling out at the last-minute.  Sponsorship, TV deals and more.

Royal is one of those people who are not in the sport for money but rather to see the sport grow and for that he must be supported, we need more like him.

As usual we do have sound issues but it’s not too bad, we are working on it, but please bear in mind most, (all) of our guests are a long way away from me.

Podcast ~ Ep57 Matt Pellino Grappling Coach

Published on July 12, 2012 by The Editor in PODCAST

It’s Episode 57 of the Podcast and our guest is:


Matt Pellino, Grappling Coach at Muayfit

American Matt, is the grappling coach at Kuala Lumpurs, Muayfit, and he tells us his story and explains how he came to be in Malaysia.

You better listen to this show, because I have a feeling Matt is going to be a regular guest, he’s a very entertaining dude.

He also happens to have a pretty good English accent!

OK that’s the good stuff. the bad stuff: for some horrible reason we had a full seven second delay on the line. I have through my awesome producing skills removed those periods of silence, however at times some strange things may happen where Matt will suddenly stop part way through a sentence, that’s my fault, I started talking, and Matt of course may have been mid-sentence and did not get my words until seven seconds later!

Also the line was pretty poor so at times it sounds like Matt is scuba diving.

We are working on these issues and a plan is in place for future shows with certain guests that should increase the quality of the sound by an incredible amount. here’s hoping!

Anyway, you don’t need to hear all this stuff it’s podcast time  listen, it’s worth it.

Podcast Ep48 – We Talk F3, Phil Baroni and Stuff

So this is it Ep48, we talk F3, Phil Baroni, Stuff Like That

So as we approach our half century of podcasts it seems that the quality of the shows is seriously reversing. This show really is a struggle to listen to. (Hey we are keeping it real) I have a serious rant about F3, the Coffee Boys retard friends think it’s funny to unplug his internet connection and frankly with nothing solid happening in our area of Asian MMA except for some Japanese shows we know nothing about, We are struggling to find anything worth writing about or indeed to talk about.


So to try to make up for the cluster F that was the show after the end music is a treat. A nice excerpt from the greatest radio show ever Loveline with Adam Carolla, Dr Drew and guest David Allen Grier. Don’t say we don’t love you.
