If you follow women's MMA, then you know the name Shayna Baszler. If you don't, come July 26th, you will. Nicknamed "Queen of Spades", Elite XC's Baszler (9-4-0) is highly regarded as one of the top female MMA fighters in the world...and for good reason. All of her nine wins have come by way of submission in the first round. She even coined the phrase "shwing" for her signature 'chicken-wing style' arm-bar. Her four career losses have come at the hands of female MMA's elite: Tara LaRosa, Amanda Buckner, & Kelly Kobald. Shayna has clearly worked her way up the ranks and paid her dues. Now it's time for her star to shine on national television.

How did you get the nickname "Berserk"?
Well Berserk was one of my first nicknames. It was based off of one of my favorite Animes. My friends called me it cause I was always laid back and relaxed in my fights but if I got hit a few times or angry they said I would go "berserk". Ha-ha. But my nickname is now "Killa B" which came from a situation that occurred on the street a few years ago. I smile a lot mainly because I am very confident and believe in myself and know what I am capable of. It has gotten me in to a lot of trouble at times. I just think anger and intimidation is over rated.

Josh Barnett easily falls in the category of MMA legend. He is the youngest UFC champion in history, having won the heavyweight title in 2002 at 24 years old. His opponent was none other than Randy Couture, whom he beat via TKO at UFC 36. Barnett is also the 10th King of Pancrase, something only an elite group of mixed martial artists can take claim to, and a title he is very proud to wear. Other winners have included Bas Rutten, and Ken & Frank Shamrock.
