Fedor Emelianenko (pictured) is fighting this Saturday. Many moons ago, that would have meant something (if not EVERYTHING). In 2017, at the ripe old age of 40, even the most diehard fight fan barely bats an eye.

Fifteen months ago, Holly Holm (pictured) turned the MMA world on its head when she kicked Ronda Rousey in her head to score a shocking knockout victory to capture the UFC bantamweight title from the woman Sports Illustrated had dubbed "The World's Most Dominant Athlete" just six months prior.

A month after cementing her spot atop the UFC women's bantamweight division, champion Amanda Nunes (pictured) appears to have finally hired a public relations manager. Or, she finally came to the realization herself that it was time to accept her new position of power with grace and humility.

How did former UFC women's bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey (pictured) go from being Sports Illustrated's "World's Most Dominant Athlete" to looking like she doesn't belong in the same cage against women who wouldn't be there without her trailblazing in a span of merely 19 months?

Cris "Cyborg" Justino (pictured) is under the impression that her good name will be cleared after the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), the independent organization the UFC hired to conduct year-round drug testing on their entire roster, discuss her therapeutic treatment with her doctor.

Saturday's UFC on FOX 22 event was about as ho-hum as they come. No titles were on the line, not even a top contender contest. The show's biggest selling points were that it was headlined by two of the UFC's golden children - strawweight Paige VanZant (pictured) and welterweight Sage Northcutt.

For years, Invicta FC featherweight champion Cris "Cyborg" Justino (pictured) has begged and pleaded for UFC president Dana White to create a women's featherweight division centered around her. White was adamant that if the buff Brazilian wanted to compete in the UFC, she would have to pull a rabbit out of her hat and make bantamweight.

At 34 years of age, former UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez (pictured) has decided now is as better time as any to push all of his chips to the center of the octagon. Velasquez is rolling the dice on the future of his MMA career, and there's no turning back.

As Bob Dylan famously sang, The times, they are a-changin'. The days of the UFC handing out free tickets to their fighters who aren't performing in the event appear to be long gone, unless you get special approval from UFC president Dana White.

Let me preface what you're about to read by stating UFC light heavyweight Ryan Bader (pictured) is one of the nicest guys in the game. Unfortunately, nice guys typically finish last.
