Co-hosts Michael Stets and Hector Castro of MMADieHards.com bring you, The Darce Side, each week.
Joining ‘The Darce Side’ will be UFC 143 headliner Carlos Condit talking about his fight against Nick Diaz; USA Today’s Sergio Non joins us to review the UFC 143 card.
Last week’s show was so good with guests Mike Dolce and Sean McCorkle that we almost didn’t even bother having a show this week. Seriously. It’s gonna be hard to top. But it’s Tuesday, and that means MMA Beatdown Radio resets its weekly clock and tries to raise the bar one more time. This week on the DieHards Radio Network, Mike an Amy are joined by Brian Ebersole and, well … a superhero named “Wonderboy.”
Ebersole (49-14-1) gives the show a buzz, and we don’t mean the kind he hears while shaving his chest hair into an arrow. It took the Midwest native more than 60 fights to get to the UFC, but once he got to the Big Show he’s been all business, going 3-0 last year with a Fight of the Night bonus – and a special bonus for finishing Dennis Hallman in the first round to get his bikini trunks off the broadcast faster, Dana White said. We’ll talk to the Australia resident about what’s next for him after his win over Claude Patrick last month – and whether he thinks he can land a coaching spot on a proposed Australian edition of “The Ultimate Fighter.” And let’s be honest – the chest hair thing is probably gonna come up.
Stephen Thompson (5-0) makes his UFC debut on Saturday at UFC 143 in Las Vegas. The “Wonderboy” is going to give us an introduction about just what makes him so wonderful, and the South Carolina-based welterweight will walk us through the stellar amateur kickboxing career – reportedly 56-0 with 39 knockouts – that made him the Wonderboy he is today … a Wonderboy about to introduce himself to mainstream MMA fans against Daniel Stittgen.
The show streams live here atMMADiehards.com at 8:30 p.m. ET/5:30 PT. If you miss the live broadcast, well dude – chill. Take a deep breath. Relax. Everything’s gonna be all right. The show will be available on demand RIGHT HERE after the completion of the broadcast or as a download at iTunes.

Admit it. You’ve been bad. Real bad. And you deserve a good ol’ fashioned beatin’. Guess who’s gonna provide it? Yeah. MMA Beatdown Radio, that’s who. The B-to-the-D is back for another star-studded episode. This week on the DieHards Radio Network, Mike, Amy and Alex Donno (790 AM The Ticket in Miami) will be joined by Sean McCorkle and Mike Dolce.
The gang will catch up with former UFC heavyweight Sean McCorkle (13-2), who has won three straight fights since his release from the UFC nearly a year ago. “Big Sexy” will talk about his upcoming super heavyweight fight for North American Allied Fight Series on Saturday in West Virginia, plus his fight on Bellator’s season-opening show in March a couple hours north of his Indianapolis home in Hammond, Ind.
Dolce has carved out arguably the most unique niche in mixed martial arts. And in the process, he’s become just about the busiest man in the sport, too. “The Dolce Diet” has become synonymous with the man behind it, who has helped clients like Thiago Alves go from brutal weight cuts – and brutal missed weights – to worry-free Fridays. Dolce is fresh off a big win for big client Vitor Belfort at UFC 142 in Brazil – ironically against Anthony Johnson, who had perhaps the most epic missed weight in UFC history. Dolce will talk about what’s next for him this week in Chicago and beyond, plus he’ll help steer us regular folk in the right direction on his Living Lean program.
The show streams live here at MMADiehards.com at 8:30 p.m. ET/5:30 PT. If you miss the live broadcast, you can catch it on the flipside. It’ll be available on demand RIGHT HERE after the completion of the broadcast or as a download at iTunes.

It’s time to celebrate again. Why? Because it’s Tuesday! MMA Beatdown Radio is back, and it’s ready to go five rounds. This week on the MMA DieHards Radio Network, Mike, Amy and Alex Donno from 790 AM The Ticket in Miami are joined by UFC lightweight Jim Miller and professional MMA fighter Joe Henle.

It’s time to celebrate again. Why? Because it’s Tuesday. That doesn’t mean we’re pumped for another episode of “NCIS.” And it sure doesn’t mean we’re gonna be tuning in to “Celebrity Wife Swap.” It means MMA Beatdown Radio is back, and it’s ready to go five rounds. This week on the MMA DieHards Radio Network, Mike, Amy and Alex Donno from 790 AM The Ticket in Miami are joined by MMA legend Pat Miletich and UFC middleweight Jorge Rivera.
Miletich can be considered nothing short of a founding father of the sport of mixed martial arts. Training out of a small gym in Bettendorf, Iowa, Miletich started his career 22-1-2, winning the UFC lightweight tournament at UFC 16, then the welterweight title at the UFC’s first event in Brazil in 1998. He would go on to defend the belt four times. As a trainer, his Miletich Fighting Systems helped mold the likes of Matt Hughes, Tim Sylvia, Jens Pulver, Jeremy Horn and Spencer Fisher, to name just a few. Now a successful color commentator for Showtime’s Strikeforce events, Miletich will join us to recap Saturday’s Strikeforce card, look ahead to this week’s UFC 142 return to Brazil and fill us in on what occupies his time now that fighting and training have taken a backseat.
After a three-fight winning streak in the UFC that included knockouts of Nate Quarry and Rob Kimmons, Rivera has a crucial fight coming up in Nashville next week. Rivera will meet Eric Schafter at the UFC on FX card, and he’ll be looking to snap a two-fight skid. Rivera will take us inside his training camp for the Schafer fight, talk about being one of the UFC’s elder statesmen – his promotional debut was in 2003 at UFC 44 – and maybe even regale us with some memories of his Cage Rage fight against Anderson Silva in London almost seven years ago.
