I noticed last night WEC has some fineass ringgirls too, a big improvement over UFC's horseface sisters and the other one.
yo i know this isnt UFC but if you guys didnt catch strikeforce, i thought this fight was the shit and im xposting this from the mma thread, watch it while it lasts:

nick ended up throwing almost 500 punches in the whole fight
wasn't that referee from UFC did he leave? and was this on ppv or showtime network because i don't follow anything but UFC.
I'm not sure how that works. I've seen UFC refs at WEC too. I don't think they are contracted to UFC.
That ref was Big John. He was the ref at UFC 1 so hes due to retire soon. I'm pretty sure the main refs are Big John, Herb Dean and Mario Yamasaki
World Extreme Cagefighting. Jens Pulver fights there. Mike Brown. Urijah Faber. Lots of great bantamweight fighters. You should check it out.
Faber loses again. Albeit with a broken hand.
Lots of 1st round stoppages last night.
I actually had the privilege of seeing that fight. Faber had the backing of the home crowd, and I was definitely pulling for him. I can say however, that I respect the hell out of him for not quitting that fight, because his hand looked gnarly, and the poor guy couldn't swing with that hand for most of the fight.
Damn, you lucky man, sounds like it was rockin. I was upset that Faber didn't win, but with a broken righthand suffered in the 1st round, and a suspected broken lefthand suffered sometime later in the fight, I take my :hatsoff: to Faber for going the distance. :bowdown:
I gotta take my :hatsoff: to Brown for doing what he had to do, I respect Mike Brown allot, but I do hope that they fght a 3rd time after Fabers hands have healed and he's ready to fight again, that my be a LONG time though. :dunno:
Re: Any UFC fans present?
I just don't like when one guy is down flat on his back and the other continues to pummel his face.
I think I saw such a condition the other night whilst surfing. :next channel:
Not cool to watch.
Looks like Jose Aldo is going to get a shot at Mike Brown. Unofficial though.
Btw, just so you know (face) their have been no serious neurological / brain trauma injuries / or deaths in the MMA / UFC as far as I am aware of. for being as brutal and that more dangerous than traditional boxing, its got a cleaner, safer, bill of health as far as the history of both sports, boxing has had many brain trauma injuries, and deaths directly stemming from a single bout.
So I don't know what the physic's or what the logical explanation is, but IMO as long as MMA isn't crippling fighters capacity do maintain the same intelligence level as when they started their careers, and they are still mentally healthy after their career, I don't have any problem with MMA. after all the fighters KNOW the risk of their actions. :thumbsup::2 cents::bowdown::hatsoff:
