Drop What You’re Doing, and Watch This Marius Zaromskis KO

Strike­force and Dream vet Mar­ius Zarom­skis fought Bruno Car­valho in Swe­den this week­end, and the end­ing of the fight will make your jaw drop. Yep, that’s a for­ward roll into an axe kick.

Miguel Tor­res once tried a sim­i­lar move when in the WEC, but didn’t con­nect. This kick can be put along­side the Anthony Pet­tis “Show­time Kick,” and Ander­son Silva and Lyoto Machida’s front kicks.

Oilers Hall to Be ‘evaluated’

For months, Oil­ers’ head coach Tom Ren­ney has been field­ing ques­tions about Tay­lor Hall and the reck­less aban­don he plays with. As effec­tive as it’s been for the for­mer first over­all pick, it seemed only a mat­ter of time before he was knocked out of the lineup. It was as inevitable as squat­ters pos­ing as pro­test­ers even­tu­ally being forcibly removed from a pri­vate park. Prior to it hap­pen­ing Sat­ur­day in Den­ver, Ren­ney was asked time and time again if there was any way to rein in the tal­ented sopho­more and get him to take a more cau­tious...
