MMA H.E.A.T.'s Karyn Bryant catches up with UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Mauricio "Shogun" Rua minutes after the UFC 126 press conference. During the broadcast it was announced that Jon Jones would step in for the injured Rashad Evans to challenge for the title at UFC 128 on March 19th, 2011. (Evans suffered a knee sprain when training partner Diego Sanchez fell on him in a freak accident.) Shogun tells us when he found out about Rashad's injury, how his own knee is feeling and what challenges the new opponent presents.

Anderson Silva is still unbeaten inside the Octagon, and still the UFC middleweight champion, after a spectacular first-round knockout win over Vitor Belfort at UFC 126. Silva used a powerful left front kick to Belfort's face to knock him flat on his back on the canvas, then finished him off with a couple more punches on the ground. Although the first round hadn't had much action up until that point, the out-of-nowhere knockout from Silva was spectacular, and gave him an exclamation point on his UFC record 13th consecutive victory.

Herschel Walker is worth millions. He's a big car collector. The former star college and NFL running back has 63. At 48, he's accomplished a helluva lot, yet he's turned back the clock and living a simple existence in a San Jose hotel for the last six weeks.
"This is my little thing. I do my work. Everyday I stay in this hotel room. It ain't about going out," Walker told Shootmedia.tv. "I don't go out to nightclubs. I don't go out and party. I never have."
Walker said the trainers at American Kickboxing Academy, where he's worked on his MMA skils for the last few years, have done too much for him to screw around.
"I have a resonsibility to those people who have given me a hand. I have a responsibility to AKA for giving me a chance, an opportunity."
Walker faces 40-year-old Scott Carson this weekend in San Jose for Strikeforce.
For the kiddies, check out the old highlights of Herschel steamrolling people during his Georgia days on his way to the 1982 Heisman. Walker also says he's still doing a minimum of 750 pushups and 2000 sit ups a day.
