Welcome to the Third Round of the ongoing tournament being presented by DC Comics to promote their new fighting game, (i)Injustice: Gods Among Us(/i). The winner of each round is being determined by internet votes, with each fight being played out after victor has been selected.(br /)

What that all boils down to is just an excuse to show you some pretty sweet footage from the soon to be released game. The above video features possibly the most loathed of all DC heroes, Aquaman, taking on Cyborg. I happen to have a soft spot for the watery warrior though, so I'll be keeping my fingers crossed.(br /)

Challenger Liz Carmouche did put forth a worthy performance for her part. Nearly managing to make it through an entire round with Rousey, Carmouche was briefly able to secure a vicious looking rear choke on her opponent before losing control of it. With Rousey able to take Carmouche to the ground, it wasn't long before the (i)judo(/i) champion rolled her way to a signature armbar.(br /)(br /)This marked the first time ever in which a UFC main event featured two female fighters, and judging by the amount of cheering going on in that arena, it won't be the last.

Or it may have you running for the hills, hands covering the eyes of your imaginary children and/or ninja turtle action figures.(br /)(br /)Apparently the rumor is that the two (i)Transformers(/i) alum have reconciled their differences and can look forward to Megan playing the iconic April O'neil. Right now my hope for the movie being better than even (i)Ninja Turtles III: Turtles in Time(/i) is about as thin as the storyline in (i)Bad Boys 2(/i).(br /)(br /)Maybe after this Mr. Bay would like complete the circle of destruction surrounding my greatest childhood memories and cast Shia LeBeouf in a (i)He Man(/i) movie reboot.

The documentary series (which we told you about here and here) has been following both female fighters in their final days before finally squaring off in the Octagon tomorrow evening. It also marks the first time in UFC history that the main even will consist of a women's match.(br /)(br /)Ah how I miss the days when midnight merely marked Round Two of a late-night movie/game marathon. Nowadays, if I'm still up at eleven at night it's only because someone slipped some sugar into my prune juice before back-to-back episodes of (i)Matlock(/i).
