I'm getting bored with this Karo fight.

BoneCrusher · 11-17-2007, 10:43 PM

MMA does get that way sometimes. This was a yawner ...

Doublebase · 11-17-2007, 10:57 PM

Has Houstans fire been smothered? Think we'll see him again anytime soon? I would like to see him against a Bonnar or Griffen.

BoneCrusher · 11-17-2007, 10:59 PM

poor stopage imho.

BoneCrusher · 11-17-2007, 11:01 PM

I had Silva on this one anyway. I think Houstan would KO Bonner pretty fast. Griffen maybe too ...

BoneCrusher · 11-17-2007, 11:12 PM

Now we have in this corner the boring do just enough to win Evans vs the Dana White manufactured Missthing.

Goodfella9783 · 11-17-2007, 11:13 PM

Yeah this is a pretty shitty main event. Can't wait for Dec. 29th.

Yeah really. I mean go for a take down in the last 10 seconds. WTF!

BoneCrusher · 11-17-2007, 11:34 PM

29-28 Evans

BoneCrusher · 11-17-2007, 11:56 PM

Free was just the right price for this event

Man, I am a shot guy and I paid $32 for this fight. Burger + 7 michelobe lights!

Edgar was the fight of the night...as I anticipated! I swear, this lil bastard is one of my favorites now.

Ed Herman didnt really surprise me.

Karo...

I wanted him to lose from the get go, but I didnt know why. However......after the 2nd round I remembered why. HES A FUCKING SNORE FEST!!!!!!!

Houston's stoppage, sorry Bone, was legitamate Id say. How many punches/elbows were thrown without good defense? Trust me...I almost always route for USA, but I couldnt deny this.

Evans... jesus. Another boring fight. Evans still deserved the win, but what a fucking bore job.

The undercard had that freak looking motherfucker from the BJ Penn TUF. That was pretty short and sweet. Not bad!

Which shoulda been the price. Seriously, Spike shouldve picked this up.

Then again, I still wouldve been at Hooters.

I met "Gina" tonight. :drool: Oh my god was this girls body hot. Then..umm, "Blaze" showed up and spoke to me. Nice guy, really! But a frat guy, all the way.

Anyone else think this new ref took the words "BIG" from ~Big John Mcarthy~? That new ref was huge vs. that fatfucked pioneer Mcarthy.

Whoa there big guy ... you're stomping on hallowed ground there. Big John is the man. That dude was frickin huge though.

Gina ... what Gina. Not the Gina ...

I think this girl was hotter.

"Blaze" told me her tits were fake. I CARE. I dont give a shit!

I never thought Big John Mcarthy was anything special. Hes a large ref, tops.

However, now the UFC has grown into an actual sport, Id like to have him reffing than mazagatti or yamasaki.

Yet I end up spending $50 last week when we went to Duffy's on 3 miller lights and a patty melt.

Anyway, pretty boring event. Edgar won exactly the way I figured he would. On the way to see the fights I told ABG that I changed my mind about Alexander and it turned out as expected, I thought it was a legitimate stoppage too, he was out for a second.

Karo was out of shape as usual, and Lauzon looked pretty awesome, although he was fighting Willow so that was no surprise. Stoked on Edgar though, I made a boatload of fake money on him.

A Black Guy · 11-18-2007, 12:39 AM

How come when you talk about meeting a guy named Blaze can I only think of a guy in an American Gladiators costume standing at the bar with a giant q-tip?

ReproMan · 11-18-2007, 12:46 AM

Yup, looks like the union guys put the squeeze on Dana and had their guys reffing the fights. They did fine IMO.

fufu · 11-18-2007, 12:48 AM

Glad I could split the ppv cost 4 ways on tonight's card.

Yeah, we did too. Not only that, but my buddies' girlfriend had a snack buffet laid out for us too. I'm gonna be shitting artichoke dip for 2 the next days.

A Black Guy · 11-18-2007, 12:54 AM

I just have to add the fact that Wheat Thins are fucking amazing.

That is all.

Anderson Silva vs. Dan Henderson Set for March

Posted by MMA Junkie on November 18, 2007 at 6:10 am ET

Light heavyweight Dan Henderson will move down to 185 pounds to challenge UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva (20-4 MMA, 5-0 UFC) in March.

The announcement was made during the post-event press conference for UFC 78, which took place Saturday at the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J.

The championship bout will likely take place at UFC 82. As MMAjunkie.com (UFC News & Rumors - MMA News - UFC Fighters - UFC Event Recaps and Previews - MMAjunkie.com) first reported, UFC 82 will take place March 1 at Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio.

Silva, one of the world’s top strikers and pound-for-pound fighters, has cruised through the UFC’s middleweight division, posting TKO victories over Chris Leben, Travis Lutter, Nate Marquardt and Rich Franklin (twice). His latest victory came at October’s UFC 77 event in Cincinnati, where he wore down local favorite Franklin with a series of brutal knee strikes — much like he did a year prior at UFC 64 to win the title.

Henderson, who most recently lost a unanimous decision to UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton Jackson in September, was acquired when the UFC’s owners purchased the Japan-based PRIDE Fighting Championships earlier this year. The title fight marked Henderson’s first bout in the UFC in nine years.

Although the former PRIDE champion recently stated he was unhappy with the UFC’s initial offer for a contract extension (he only has one fight remaining on his current deal), he said he was optimistic a new deal would be reached. The fact that the UFC has unofficially announced his next fight likely means a deal is close to being finalized.

Now THIS is a fight.

Its weird how Duffys always manages to fuck ya on the bill. But when I go alone or with 1 other person, its better..? Maybe you got a shot or two on your tab that night. I usually dont buy shots at UFCs though.

That lil Edgar...man, that is one talented dwarf. I am going to be excited every time that Keebler elf enters the ring!

I guess I am really anticipating the next fight. You finally got Serra vs. Hughes and the ever-predicted fight between Liddel and Silva, how long have we all talked about them two fighting?

I think I am looking forward to the Serra/Hughes fight more than anything. I never liked that asshole Hughes and hearing Serra talk so much shit that I AGREE with, makes it that much more desirable to see.

BoneCrusher · 11-18-2007, 11:56 AM

My predictions for what's coming:

Serra destroys Hughes
Hendo GnP's Anderson Silva
Horodecki vs Lierley rematch will be the sleeper for Dec
Liddel gets retired by Silva
Penn beats Stevenson
Guida takes Huerta
Faber KO's Curran

Doublebase · 11-18-2007, 12:34 PM

For some reason I think Liddell is gonna KO Silva.
