Knuckle Up #456: EUGENE S. ROBINSON [“S” is for “shotgun”] is laying down an exceedingly bold claim on this round #456 of KNUCKLE UP and it’s that beyond a shadow of a doubt his was THE VERY FIRST SHOW on MMA filmed behind the wheel of a moving automobile. Do not settle for pale imitations. That being said sports agent extraordinaire MIKE KOGAN fresh off of his prescient and largely correct take on EDDIE ALVAREZ stops by, BJJ great DIOGO ARAUJO breaks down SHOGUN RUA’s decline and a special BOB HOPE-ESQUE surprise visit from a heretofore unnamed UFC LEGEND all at the service of trying to figure out why UFC Fight Night 26 was so g-damned cool.
Eugene S. Robinson host of Knuckle Up and author of Fight: Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Ass-Kicking but Were Afraid You’d Get Your Ass Kicked for Asking [Harper Collins], A LONG SLOW SCREW [Robotic Boot] and a play called THE INIMITABLE SOUNDS OF LOVE; A THREESOME IN FOUR ACTS [Southern] also sings for a band called OXBOW and appeared in Bill Cosby’s Leonard Part 6, a Miller Genuine Draftcommercial, and had his own TV show in Germany called? “The Eugene Robinson Show.” And in a weirder moment yet? Co-hosted with ESPN’s STUART SCOTT a Superbowl fashion show in Tampa. [free t-shirt to whoever can find that video for us.] AND appeared on MIDNIGHT CALLER with GARY COLE. Believe it.
