MMA Tournaments: Why Fighters Secretly Crave the Format They Publicly Hate (UFC, PFL)

Look, let’s get something straight right off the bat — MMA tournaments are the combat sports equivalent of reality TV. Everyone claims they hate them, everyone says they’re beneath “real” competition, and yet somehow every fighter worth their salt ends up begging for an invitation when the checks start getting written.
But here’s the reality that those same purists conveniently ignore: tournaments solve problems that traditional MMA booking can’t touch. They force action, build resumes in compressed time, and create legendary moments that single fights never could have delivered. Fighters hate uncertainty, but they love opportunity, and tournaments provide both in equal measure.

Finnish Action Masterpiece: Johnny North Reviews Sisu – Road to Revenge

Sisu: Road to Revenge on Netflix is “one of the best movies I’ve seen this year,” according to Wrestling Uncensored’s Johnny North. The Finnish action sequel features a unique approach: a protagonist who never speaks throughout the film’s runtime.
Set in 1946 Soviet-occupied Finland, the movie follows legendary commando Aatami Korpi seeking revenge against the Red Army officer who killed his family. Starring Jorma Tommila and Stephen Lang with an €11 million budget, director Jalmari Helander delivers what Johnny calls superior to The Expendables franchise.
“It’s just boom, action, next action scene, next action scene,” Johnny describes. “I just love how it was kind of cold at times and it felt kind of gritty. Simple movie, but it works.”
Strong violence warning: Johnny repeatedly emphasized this film is not appropriate for children due to extreme graphic content throughout.
