Weekend Wrap-Up


UFC: Props to Jonny "Bones" Jones who captured the UFC light heavyweight title from Shogun Rua on Saturday. Even more remarkable, just hours before the fight he chased down a guy (who had broken into a woman's car and stolen her GPS) and held him until the police arrived. Damn, that brother whipped ass all day long.


Ring of Honor: The ROH World Title changed hands in New York on Saturday with Eddie Edwards taking the crown from Roderick Strong. And thank goodness, because God bless him, but Strong was putting me to sleep like I had just eaten a big Thanksgiving meal. Even though they are losing TV, I see ROH gaining a little momentum with the new champ, the Briscoe Brothers heel turn and Princess Mia (!).


Rihanna: Over the weekend Louis Farrakhan dissed Rihanna of all people by saying her performances were "filthy" and that anyone who enjoyed them were "swine". She shot back on Twitter with:


"A minister says I perform filthy, sat and watched the filth, then called U SWINE for doin the same! Haa is that judgment in ur tone?"


Burn. The worst part of this? I got called swine!
