Bob Meyrowitz, co-creator of the UFC, is back in mixed martial arts, and we have him this week on Carson's Corner.

Meyrowitz is getting ready for the inaugural YAMMA Pit Fighting show, which takes place on April 11, 2008. (http://yammapitfighting.com/) You will get his thoughts on the current MMA scene, where YAMMA fits into the grand scheme of things, what he hopes to accomplish with YAMMA and much more. Meyrowitz is a very interesting guest, and he has a very wide range of reference. He has crossed paths with Howard Stern, Howard Cosell and other pop culture icons. Tune in to hear him tell the tales.

Also, listen for MMA radio legend Eddie Goldman (http://nhbnews.podomatic.com/) on this broadcast.

In addition to this outstanding and informative interview, the show covers other current events, such as Anderson Silva's desire to box Roy Jones, Jr., and UFC 83. Bob has seen "No Holds Barred," and he shares his thoughts on this episode. Additionally, we answer listener email and more.

Bob Carson, thanks for this interesting broadcast. From what I know the movie under discussion is essentially a marketing tool for MMA and was produced in conjunction with the organization.

Ryan,

I'm glad you enjoyed the podcast. I think the movie attempted to use something that was popular, (MMA) to gain acceptance with it's target audience, the 18 to 24 year olds.
