WEC 52 bonus video: Future star McDonald looks dynamite
Michael McDonald, a 19-year-old, who came with a ton of hype. lived up to the expectations. WEC released a video free view of McDonald's win over Clint Godfrey.
Here's another one of these new breed guys, who's been training in all aspects of MMA from before he was a teenager. Most of todays big stars in MMA all came from a particular discipline. That'll change in the 10 years. Most of the elite fighters will have started at a young age and be well-versed in all facets of MMA.
McDonald (12-1, 1-0 WEC) showed off an impressive skill set in his quick win Godfrey. The first thing you notice is his calm demeanor in the cage. No nerves at all for a guy his age. Then McDonald let the hands go. He drilled Godfrey with the first good combination he threw and then floored the South Dakota native with a straight right (3:05 mark). McDonald jumped on top, unleashed some ground and pound and then calmly walked away.
Even when he made a mistake and allowed Godfrey to score a takedown, the teenager showed poise off his back. Watch as he waits for Godfrey to leave his left arm exposed (5:00 mark). The second he did, McDonald slapped on an armbar and got the tap almost immediately.
That was awesome. McDonald looked like the much bigger fighter and a kid who could be fighting at featherweight in his mid-20's. Keep an eye on McDonald in the UFC.

Mike Vick probably put a smile on Dana White's face
The man is from Boston but allow Dana White a chance to gloat a bit today. The Patriots fan declared last August that he was also an Eagles fan. White knows that statement might earn him a scowl from an old lady and make several New Englanders throwing snowballs at his house, but the UFC president likes to back the underdog. It was last year, before the NFL season began, White stated he was a backer of Michael Vick.
"I hope Michael Vick wins the Super Bowl, makes $3 billion and is the greatest comeback story in the history of sports, man," White told Yahoo! Sports' Kevin Iole. "When are they going to stop crucifying this [expletive] guy?"
After spending 19 months in prison on dog fighting charges, Vick has been back in the NFL for 21 games. He's started less than half and put up solid numbers. Last night in a win over the Washington Redskins, he broke through with an all-time performance. Vick passed for 333 yards, ran for 80 and produced six touchdowns.
"I think the guy has taken it on the chin like a man. You haven’t seen him bitch about it. … He walks out of bankruptcy court this morning, because he has to pay creditors back $20 [expletive] million and he walks out smiling and he’s going to play tonight," White said in August of 2009.
A month later in Dallas at UFC 103, White reiterated his stance, telling radio personality "Big" Dick Hunter that he'd never seen anything like the Vick saga (0:25 mark - NSFW).
White's pretty consistent in his support for athletes who get slaughtered by the media. In Dec. of 2009, at the UFC 107 postfight press conference, he donned a Tiger Woods hat saying he was sick of watching the golfer's troubles played out publicly.
