With UFC Fight Night 22 and “The Ultimate Fighter 12″ season debut in the books, this week’s edition of The Sunday Junkie focused heavily on the Sept. 15 events.

Our weekly reader-feedback feature covers the short-lived Nate Marquardt greasing allegation, the rise of Charles Oliveira, the return of Yves Edwards, and whether “TUF” has lost its luster.

Shine Fights and Shark Fights stepped up this weekend and offered fight fans some solid pay-per-view entertainment.

And in The Sunday Junkie, our weekly reader-feedback feature, MMAjunkie.com readers discussed many aspects of both shows.

More than a week later, UFC 118 is still a hot topic among MMA fans, especially those who learned that pro boxer James Toney made a base pay of $ 500,000 for his lackluster showing against Randy Couture.

Jaison Jacob, this week’s winner of The Sunday Junkie (our weekly reader-feedback feature), takes the unpopular stance and explains why Toney was worth the investment.

Fans also discuss other aspects of UFC 118, wrestling’s rise to prominence in MMA, whether UFC champ Mauricio “Shogun” Rua should be stripped of the title, the danger of heel hooks, and other topics.
