The Only Man to Officially Beat Rickson Gracie — And Didn't Even Know ItIn this episode of the MMA History Podcast, host Mike Davis and Joey Venti sit down with Dr. Ron Tripp — one of the most accomplished American grapplers of all time. A Sambo world medalist, judo champion, and the only man with an official victory over Rickson Gracie, Ron shares how he defeated Gracie in the semi-finals of the Pan Ams without even realizing the significance of the win until years later.Ron details his remarkable combat sports journey, beginning with basement training sessions on a concrete floor in Michigan, transitioning to high school wrestling as a junior, and excelling in college at Hillsdale. He discusses his deep involvement in Sambo, competing at World Championships and earning multiple medals, as well as his long tenure as assistant wrestling coach at the University of Oklahoma alongside legends like the Schultz brothers (Dave and Mark) and Andre Metzger.The conversation covers unforgettable stories from the OU wrestling room, coaching elite athletes, the early days of mixed martial arts with C3 Fights, and his work with fighters including Melvin Guillard and Joe Stevenson. Ron also reflects on his time as president of USA Judo, his experiences with figures like Pat Burrus, Steve Nelson, Anthony Johnson, and Danny Hodge, and the evolution of combat sports.This episode is packed with raw history, behind-the-scenes insights, and wisdom from a true pioneer who has shaped champions across wrestling, Sambo, judo, and MMA.Like and subscribe for more in-depth interviews and stories from the early days of mixed martial arts.

Guest: Melissa Jones, SIU Investigator at Crum & Forster ("OSINT Millennial")Host Kelly Paxton sits down with Melissa Jones — insurance fraud investigator, OSINT trainer, and self-described "OSINT Millennial" — for a wide-ranging conversation about building a career in Special Investigations, the art of digital digging, and why connection (both online and on the ball hockey rink) drives everything Melissa does.Episode HighlightsFraudster Dinner Date Melissa kicks things off with an unexpected pick: convicted FBI spy Robert Hanssen, someone she studied in her criminal justice master's program. Kelly counters with the usual suspects (Charles Ponzi, Elizabeth Holmes) but appreciates the espionage angle.Who Steals More — Men or Women? A detour into gender and fraud data, including a striking stat Kelly cites from a colleague's fire department embezzlement research: women make up only about 3% of fire department staff but account for roughly 28% of thefts. Melissa admits her own SIU team doesn't currently track gender breakdowns — but wants to start.From Direct Bill Clerk to SIU Investigator Melissa traces her 12-year (and counting) career at Crum & Forster: a psychology degree from Ramapo College, an entry-level insurance ops job in 2014, a move into policy operations, and a leap into the Special Investigations Unit as an analyst in 2017 after spotting an internal job posting. She was promoted to investigator in 2022 and now works alongside a nationwide SIU team of 15–16 people.Why Insurers Have the Data Advantage Kelly and Melissa talk shop on how much visibility insurance companies have into patterns of behavior — from claims data to spending anomalies — and how that data gets put to work across property/casualty, auto, workers' comp, and even pet insurance claims.Building the "OSINT Millennial" Brand Melissa describes how she got into public speaking after approaching fellow investigator Joe Stevenson at a conference in Hersheypark in 2019, which led to her first joint presentation. She's since built her own social-media-investigations talks under the "OSINT Millennial" tagline, using only publicly available content (never her active casework) to teach audiences — including a recent stop in Leominster, MA that packed the room.Industry ShoutoutsOsmosisCon and Cynthia Hetherington — Melissa has FOMO for missing this year's conference and hopes to attend next year.Ritu Gill and other women in the OSINT/investigations space Melissa admires and reshares often.Christina Fiscella— noted for her work on gray-collar crime and elder fraud cases.Hank Asher/"Hank Venice" (as referenced in the episode) and Brian from Diligentia Group — mentors and friends from the investigations conference circuit.Age, Assumptions, and Social Media Investigations A deep dive into why investigators shouldn't assume older subjects are "off the grid" — and why understanding how each platform works (not just whether someone uses it) is the real skill in OSINT investigations.Fraud in Pop Culture Melissa's take: reality TV like Survivor is basically fraud and manipulation for sport. Kelly recommends checking out a Hacks episode (Season 5) with a surprisingly relevant survivor-style storyline.Investigative Philosophy: "Dig" and "Trust but Triangulate" Both hosts bond over shared investigator vocabulary — the instinct to "dig," and Kelly's own mantra, "trust but triangulate," as a more generous alternative to "trust but verify."Ball Hockey — More Than a Hobby Melissa opens up about her ball hockey career, playing internationally (including in the Dominican Republic) and around the U.S. (Nashville, Buffalo, Vegas), plus a women's league in South Jersey. She credits the sport with building a diverse, tight-knit community — and even a professional networking connection with a teammate who works in arson investigation.NJSIA Shoutout Melissa is a board member and incoming Vice President of the New Jersey Special Investigators Association (NJSIA), which is gearing up for its 35th annual conference and networking seminar in Atlantic City this year. All are welcome to attend.https://www.linkedin.com/in/melissajones33/https://www.instagram.com/osintmillennial/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6P0m2KpUWA

DAMN! They Were Good celebrates the careers of the most exciting and influential fighters in MMA history, and on this episode, the MMA Fighting crew remembers the best of former UFC lightweight and welterweight champion, B.J. Penn. As the first non-Brazilian to ever win gold at the BJJ World Championships, Penn entered the UFC in 2001 with an immense amount of hype, and over his 18-year career, the man named “The Prodigy” more than lived up to his moniker. Arguably the best lightweight in the world at the time, just three years into his MMA career, Penn did the unthinkable, jumping up a weight class and submitting the top pound-for-pound fighter in the sport, Matt Hughes, to claim his first UFC title. After that historic win, Penn bounced around, chasing ever greater feats, like destroying lineal lightweight champion Duane Ludwig and then facing off with future light heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida, losing a competitive decision. In 2008, Penn finally decided to stop chasing his fights of fancy and put his head down to stake out a legacy at lightweight, claiming the title with a win over Joe Stevenson to become the second fighter in history to win titles in two weight classes inside the UFC, and still the only man to win the lightweight and welterweight belts. For nearly a decade, Penn chased greatness anywhere he could in a way that few ever have. That daring made him beloved to fans and respected among his fellow fighters. Even to this day, all time greats like Anderson Silva have called him the greatest fighter ever, and so for this edition of DAMN, host Jed Meshew is joined by MMAFighting's Shaheen Al-Shatti and Eric Jackman to remember their favorite moments from “The Prodigy.” Follow Jed Meshew @JedKMeshew Follow Shaun Al-Shatti @ShaunAlShatti Follow Eric Jackman @NewYorkRic Subscribe: http://goo.gl/dYpsgH Check out our full video catalog: http://goo.gl/u8VvLi Visit our playlists: http://goo.gl/eFhsvM Like MMAF on Facebook: http://goo.gl/uhdg7Z Follow on Twitter: http://goo.gl/nOATUI Read More: http://www.mmafighting.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to the 6th Round Retro Post-Fight Show. This is the show that digs into the archives and gives you a comprehensive review of classic MMA events, that span as far back as UFC 1. Join Eddie Mercado & Victor Rodriguez as they relive the UFC 91 PPV (pay-per-view) event this week, complete with results, analysis, and of course a few laughs. This week we feature the Nov. 15th, 2008, UFC 91 PPV: ‘Randy Couture vs. Brock Lesnar’ event, (last episode on a non-fight week we covered UFC Tuf 2 Finale: ‘Sanchez vs. Diaz’). This was a jam packed nine-fight card, eight of which were finishes, leaving only one Decision for the entire event. UFC 91 went down from the infamous MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. The main event that night showcased one of the best fights of the year, when heavyweight standouts Randy Couture and Brock Lesnar battled it out for the World Heavyweight Championship, going only two of five rounds. Lesnar was still relatively new to the UFC at the time, after going 1-1 in the UFC against Frank Mir and Heath Herring, the WWE import received an unprecedented and controversial title shot against the Undisputed Heavyweight Champion Randy Couture. ‘The Natural’ was entering the octagon on a two-fight win streak against the giant Lesnar, having won against both Gabriel Gonzaga and Tim Sylvia prior to this event. The rest of the card was one of the best of the year, with all nine bouts shown on the PPV broadcast. In the co-main event we watched Joe Stevenson quickly succumb to ‘KenFlo’. We also got to watch the exciting Jeremy Stephens deliver the ‘Knockout of the Night’ to Rafael dos Anjos, catch Dustin Hazelett with the ‘Submission of the Night’ against Tamdan McCrory and rounding it all out our ‘FOTN’ was actually not Lesnar/Couture but a battle that went the distance between Aaron Riley and Jorge Gurgel.

Welcome to the 6th Round Retro Post-Fight Show. This is the show that digs into the archives and gives you a comprehensive review of classic MMA events, that span as far back as UFC 1. Join Eddie Mercado & Victor Rodriguez as they relive a UFC TUF Finale event this week, complete with results, analysis, and of course a few laughs. This week we feature the Nov. 5th, 2005, TUF 2 Finale: ‘Sanchez vs. Diaz’ event. This was just a seven-fight card, three of which went to decision, but the other four had some fun finishes. The event went down from The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. The main event that night showcased one of the best fights of the year when welterweight standouts Diego ‘Nightmare’ Sanchez and Nick Diaz battled it out for three rounds. Diaz, was entering the octagon after having had two decent wins at UFC 51 and UFC 53, having just beat Koji Oishi at 1:24 in Round 1 via Punches a few months back, at the top of June of that year. Sanchez was entering the octagon undefeated in all of his fights on record against fellow American, Diaz; having last defeated Brian Gassaway at UFC 54, via Punches at 1:56 of Round 2. Then, in the co-main event we were treated to a light heavyweight brawl between future Light Heavyweight Champion Rashad Evans and Brad Imes that ended in a Split Decision. Also that night, on the main card we got to watch the future top contender, Joe Stevenson, go the distance against Luke Cummo and Kenny Florian Sub Kit Cope. Meanwhile, during the prelims, we had Josh Burkman Slam Sam Morgan into defeat in just 0:21 seconds of Round 1.
