Huh. Andre Benkei started a new team and invited Gono over, so now Gono is living and fighting in Brazil. What a strange world.

Honestly I really like what WSOF has going, it's definitely no WEC or Strikeforce, but it feels much more like one of those parallel organisations than Bellator which is mostly preoccupied with tournament stuff

You mean FFC? It's run by Orsat Zovko (Crocop's manager) and probably the manager of whichever Croatians end up on the card so be careful but it's good that he's got plenty of notice, and even when he ran the Glory show with Crocop/Bonjasky somehow they didn't give it to Mirko. However, the K-1 thing.

Nobody's sure if it even applies to MMA, nobody has the money or the inclination (yet) to go to court to find out, and nobody's ever been prosecuted under the act anyway.

Rumina Sato finally retired today https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrHOmYaw9GE Fought every single one of his fights for Shooto, even though Joe Silva would've killed his own mother to sign him, even when PRIDE brought far bigger money to the lighter weights he never wavered

I'd be curious to see if he'd go back into fight promoting. http://mmajunkie.com/2014/04/with-zuffa-contract-complete-former-strikeforce-boss-plans-to-travel-not-promote his contract was up last month, he's not under a non compete clause but he's not planning to immediately jump into promoting anyway

Yeah, he's not BSing about that. A few years ago he put that the promoter must pay Gary Goodridge $500 into his contract at least once, and nobody would have known if Goodridge didn't thank him in public.

I knew everybody had been playing musical chairs with opponents but I didn't know Hallman was in. He's old and broken now but it would be bad news for Fitch if he has one last drop of the Hughes magic. I like that fight, it will probably be terrible.
