Upset? well, unexpected. I wont go into semantics on the definition of the word upset, but based upon its adjective, it still counts.

How the fuck did you do that?

I wanted Randy, GSP, and Cote to win.

I bet against all of them.

Yeah, nice round.

I missed Kendall, Koscheck, and Gonzaga.

I thought Kos did an unbelievable job though. He took very little damage and got up in the first round. GSP is amazing though and looked real good. I kinda thought the judges would give Kos that first round and 2 of them did. Had Kos perhaps had 1 takedown in the 3rd, he would have won that fight. Very close on the scorecards.

Stevenson was my fav fight until the telepromter showed up in the Huerta fight.

I waited for the preliminary fight to see how the mat got so bloody!!!!!!!! WHERE WAS IT!

Yeah it was hilarious, Huerta was going 25% the entire fight it seemed.

I also wanted to see the fight that all the blood came from, wtf. I am guessing it was Guida vs. Aurelio. Guida is a crazy brawler and Aurelio is a top LW Pride fighter.

No, that was the first fight of the night and the blood wasn't there for the Leites fight. Must have been Heath vs. Babalu but that wouldn't make sense either...

I guess it was there... Hmmm.

ReproMan · 08-25-2007, 11:35 PM

I'll get to see all the undercard bouts tomorrow.

fufu · 08-25-2007, 11:35 PM

Whatever it came from, I'm pissed I didn't get to see 3 fights. 40 dollars. 40 dollars. 40 dollars.40 FUCKING DOLLARS!

Speaking of that, did it seem like Stevenson wasn't going 100% in the first round either? Seemed like he could overpower Kurt anytime he wanted, but didn't. I know he was going for the guillotine but it seemed weird to me...

I'm a member of the video club on UFC in demand. I ordered the fights last time and for 30 bucks more you get a 6 month subscription. I figured with all the fights coming up I'd get a few PPV's worth of undercard bouts in the next few months. Can't wait to see Guida fight..

I dont remember thinking that. I did miss a minute or two of the first round though when the cable when out due to lightning.

Is that 30 dollars for all total PPV's in the next six months?! Or just the undercard fights tha you don't get to see?

I paid 69.95 for UFC 73 and I get all the undercard fights and all the old fights I wanna watch for the next 6 months.

They have over 200 fights in the database and they add new ones every other week.

fufu · 08-25-2007, 11:48 PM

oh, cool.

lawl, did anyone else hear Mike Goldberg commentating about Gonzaga's broken nose. Something to this nature -

Here it is Joe! This is the punch, look! Gonzaga's nose exploded!

It wasn't even the damn impact that broke his nose either. Mike is an asshat commentator.

AKIRA · 08-25-2007, 11:48 PM

Thats a decent deal for the timeline. Actually, its a great deal.

Yeah,...I heard some other shit tonight out of his mouth that was laughable. Someoen else might mention the comments..

OMG, I went to my buddy's house (Vern) and his girlfriend's brother first tried to tell me that MMA was illegal in Florida then went on to tell me 20 more ludicrous facts about MMA. I wanted to strangle him. He was the least informed person I have ever been in contact with and he insisted he knew what he was talking about.

lol, I also encounter people like this.

It's like the same deal as high reps get you cut and low reps get you bulky, protein makes you fat, creatine is a hormone.

Btw, can you believe three more events in Sept? Rampage vs. Jackson, w00t. Shogun in the UFC for the first time.

Yeah, it's pretty crazy. The show starts on the night of the Fight Night too. Tons of UFC this coming month.

ReproMan · 08-26-2007, 12:17 AM

I went 6/9. From what I've read it was Heath bleeding all over the place.

Edit** It was in fact David Heath bleeding all over the place.
