Carmelo Marrero vs. Mike Ciesnolevicz ruled no contest due to accidental headbbut cut on Marrero at 1:37 Round 1.

What you might not know is that The Rear Naked Choke video squad was behind the scenes with Bad Brad from the time he got off the plane! To watch the inside story behind one of the greatest in-fight comebacks in IFL history, keep track of www.joeted.com and listen to The RNC.

Prior to settling in for the fights, Joe & Ted had Ring Girls and Big(gest) Losers. Oh yeah, and fighters, too!

Ring Girl Lauren Urso, who was one of the winners of the IFL/NY Post Ring Girl contest, was the first guest and got things (and Ted) heated up in a hurry.

The massive Conan Silveira from American Top Team talked about coming from Brazil to Miami and gave some good intel on his fighters.

Jim Germanakos from The Biggest Loser stepped in. Jim is a big MMA fan and knows a thing or two about dropping weight and getting into shape. His brother, Bill, won the title after 17 weeks on the ranch. Jim stayed for six weeks and Bill for the entire 17.

Then it got to the fighters, with Deividas Taurosevicius and Mike Massenzio, both of whom will be fighting on the IFL’s May 16 card at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut.

Deividas’ wrist injury kept him from fighting in the Meadowlands but he has been cleared to battle for the lightweight title against Ryan “The Lion” Schultz. Deividas is from Lithuania and recounted his professional athletic start as a rugby player.

Massenzio, who will be making his IFL debut at Mohegan Sun, capped it off by talking about his amazing New Jersey high school wrestling career and his current role as a high school coach and MMA fighter. He was 142-13 in high school and is now 10-1 in MMA!

 LC Davis' First Appearance on The Show: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

Rory Markham and LC Davis join Joe & Ted on a special episode – the Miletich Fighting Systems Love-In Show (MFSLIS).

Pat Miletich was slated to be on but could not make it, and Rory was a little late, so the guys had to carry it for a while.

But once they got started, it was on fire! ON FIRE!

Rory was spectacular, even though he talked about how the flu wreaked havoc with his insides.

LC kept it going and also got line of the night (hear it right at the beginning of the show). LC also starred in the “Unnamed Name That Segment” with Ted!

HISTORY
LC was on with Waggney Fabiano. He rocked it. Listen to it here:

LC’s first appearance

LC’s first appearance is the benchmark for the live stream and chat. His peeps were out in droves and helped shatter RNC participation records. We know a lot of you are going to want to listen live and establish a new record.

Rory’s past appearances remain some of our most consistently downloaded shows. The bar is set high this time, as his pals Mike C. and Bartimus were off the charts on the previous show. Did you know Rory once hosted the show (in its previous incarnation as The RON Show)? Well, he did. Czech it out right here:

Rory once co-hosted the show – Rory Markham Hosts The Ron Show The Rear Naked Choke

As always, we kicked it off 9:30 Eastern, 8:30 Central, 7:30 Mountain, 6:30 Pacific, and 2:30 am Tuesday GMT for those of you in Europe!

 Riz & The Kitch Live at Ringside – IFL Las Vegas [106:10m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

Sean Faris from the movie “Never Back Down” did not back down when Riz & The Kitch welcomed him to The Rear Naked Choke, live ringside from the IFL season-opening event at The Orleans in Las Vegas!

Sean talked about the movie and his MMA training with Joe (a.k.a. “Riz”) and James “the Kitch” Kitcher, subbing for Ted, who could not make the trip.

The Vegas shows the first couple of nights were sidetracked by the Doodlebops, but the guys were able to land Geno the Driver for analysis on MMA and things like The Notebook!

During the ringside live stream, the stars had aligned.

The leadoff guest was Elisabeth Nuesser, who owns the smokin-hot Fightchix clothing line! Listeners of The RNC need only email info@fightchix.com to get 15% off their order – Elisabeth said it herself right on the show!

Then Ken Shamrock jumped into the seat and dished about his place in MMA history, the treatment of the UFC to him and others scorned, and his ongoing feud/storyline with his brother, Frank Shamrock. Ken was not fighting on this evening, but he did call out The Kitch in one of The RNC’s all-time classic moments. Hear a tidbit of it in the show-opening teaser!

Gary Grate, who acts as Ken’s assistant coach in the IFL, took the chair and gave the guys a verbal lesson in Brazilian jiu jitsu. Gary is a Charles Gracie disciple and has a jitz school in Reno. He helps the guys in Ken’s Lion’s Den stay sharp on the ground and has forgotten more about MMA than most people will ever know. He’s also a good friend of BJ Penn, but we’re not name-dropping…

Then Faris, the star of the MMA movie Never Back Down, grabbed the headset. Sean was able to relax with the guys while explaining the movie’s plot and how he suffered through some pretty serious training injuries, like a broken back and busted thumb! He also dished about his teen idol status, how he got interested in MMA, and his overall experience with the sport, the movie and his future with both. Riz also asked him about a Never Back Down sequel – listen for the answer!

What more can you ask for?
A discount on the hottest line of MMA clothing
Ken Shamrock calling out The Kitch
Gary Grate confusing Riz about who he is
Sean Faris getting the distinction of becoming the first movie star on the show

“El Guapo” Bas Rutten hates it when people do not use their turn signals and do not obey airport safety regulations.

Wagnney Fabiano likes to make friends so much that he’s willing to give out his phone number.

LC Davis is the king of Kansas and Missouri.

Dan Miller is the purveyor of the “guillotine from hell.”

Elias Rivera has been a professional fighter since age 9.

Those are some of the highlights from the last few weeks on The Rear Naked Choke, Featuring Joe & Ted, here at www.joeted.com! Our player is over there on the right somewhere, and you can listen right from there. You also could check out our TalkShoe page to browse, and additionally can subscribe to The RNC on iTunes.

The guys had on Bas Rutten as a complete surprise. They were doing a show about the history of the show when Bas came on and, as only he can, lit it up. Hilarity ensued as El Guapo talked about life and fighting, and even did his Tony Montana immitation!

Fabiano joined the guys on the phone from Brazil! He talked about his little dogs, his penchant for winning by submission, and his need for sponsors.

Davis brought with him a virtual entourage, easily making that our mostly highly listened and chatted live show! He reveals what the LC stands for, discusses how to train under Pat Miletich and reveals what it’s like to be a coach.

Miller talks about one of the greatest submissions in MMA history, what we at The RNC have named the “guillotine from hell” against David Phillips on Aug. 2 in the IFL Team semifinals. YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS!

Rivera is slated to fight Dec. 29 in his home state of Connecticut and talked about how he got his start. The owner of a local Chinese laundry in the South Bronx was the key. Listen up to get the whole story of the Team Dog Pound mentor!

Keep listening for the best in the IFL as we move closer to the World Grand Prix Finals, Dec. 29 at Mohegan Sun in Conn. We’ll be doing weekly shows leading up to it, and will do shows from the IFL remote headquarters Dec. 27 and 28, with a live show from ringside right before the event!
