Rashad Evans takes a swing at Hector Echavarria.

Only a little over a month until Death Warrior drops on DVD and Blu-Ray, and with our new contest, things are starting to get interesting! Check out this news post that Shannon wrote up:

Get ready for pulse pumping action with Lionsgate Home Entertainment’s December 1st release of Death Warrior! Directed by Bill Corcoran, Death Warrior stars Hector Echavarria, Nick Mancuso, Georges St. Pierre, Rashad Evans, Keith Jardine and Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson. In the film, a gritty MMA fighter is forced into a twisted, underground gambling ring in which he must fight to the death with other MMA fighters in order to save his wife from certain death at the hands of a maniacal crime boss. In a desperate race against time, he is forced into a series of increasingly violent life and death matches while simultaneously piecing together the puzzle which leads him to uncover the identity of the promoter and the ultimate showdown, in which there can only be one Death Warrior. Pick up the DVD for bonus materials and extra features including Interviews with St-Pierre, Jardine and Evans, Training footage with BJ Penn, Featurettes and more.

You can pre-order the Death Warrior DVD or Blu-Ray already on Amazon. Also, be sure to check out our Death Warrior page, and enter the contest for a chance at MMA movie stardom!

Georges St-Pierre as "The Crusher"


UFC 100 arrived July 11th and beyond Brock Lesnar acting out, all light was cast upon Georges “Rush” St-Pierre & his victory over Thiago Alves. GSP has proven yet again that he is the rightful Welterweight Champion, and possibly the best pound for pound fighter in any division.

Fedor Emelianenko via Wikipedia

While GSP lives/eats/breathes “Rush” in The Octagon (and his hometown of Montreal, Quebec, Canada), he plays “The Crusher” in upcoming film “Death Warrior“ written by martial artist Hector Echavarria.

The film has more than just those two attached; Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, Keith Jardin, and Rashad Evans also lend their real world fighting expertise to this MMA-driven movie.

While you consider who is the “Best Pound for Pound MMA Fighter” - Fedor Emelianenko or Georges St-Pierre - check out this clip from Death Warrior:
