The light heavyweight title unification bout between UFC 205-pound ace Quinton Jackson (Pictures) and PRIDE champion Dan Henderson (Pictures) will be broadcast via same-day tape delay on Spike TV, the television network announced through a press release Monday afternoon. "We are pleased that Spike TV will bring UFC 75 live from London to millions of UFC fans in the U.S. and Canada," said UFC president Dana White. "UFC 75 will be the UFC and PRIDE's first ever unification match -- this fight between 'Rampage' Jackson and Dan Henderson (Pictures) will decide who is the best 205-pound fighter in the two organizations." Also set for the card, Mirko Filipovic (Pictures) (22-5-2) returns from his devastating loss to Gabriel Gonzaga (Pictures) back in April to confront French striker Cheick Kongo (Pictures) (10-3-1) and undefeated Ultimate Fighter veterans Michael Bisping (Pictures) (13-0-0) and Matt Hamill (Pictures) (3-0-0) take to the cage. |

It's fast action contact fighting. Yeah I know there's no GNP and no cage. I come from the old school beginnings of the sport with point matches and the PKA so for me it's all good as long as feet are allowed and someone is kicking someone's ass.
members are you anyway Black Guy?

Last one I saw, there was a guy, exhausted and out on his feet, he'd get knocked down, and the ref would pick him up and yell at him for stalling. He'd get knocked down, get picked up, knocked down, lather, rinse, repeat. It seemed very dangerous and poorly officiated, like they just wanted to keep propping the one guy up and hoping for a spectacular knockout. |
I don't recall anyone getting gigged for double kicks or kick combo's. Imma have to google the WCL rules now. You got me flustered ... 
... no kick combo's? WTF kinda kick boxing is that?• Punching - jab, cross, hook, uppercut, and spinning backfistWHAT FIGHTING TECHNIQUES ARE NOT ALLOWED?
• Kicking - Front-Kicks, Roundhouse Kicks, Side Kicks, Back Kicks, Hook Kicks, Wheel Kicks,Spinning Kicks
• Kneeing -Front and Roundhouse
• No Throws
• No Takedowns
• No Ground Fighting
WHAT ACTIONS WILL BE PENALIZED?• No Clinching- Intentionally tying-up the opponent's arms in an effort to stop them from punching.
• No Holding- Grabbing the opponent's body in an effort to stop them from attacking or countering.
• No Stalling- Intentionally delaying the action of a contest in any way.
• No Passivity- Retreating or circling without striking - or fighting only when the opponent attacks.

I guess I'll put it back on the TiVo for a refresher. |
