Matches I cared for

Butterbean vs. Zuluzinho
I never liked the freak show fights that Pride loves, along with how they let any Olympic athlete compete if they have won a medal, but watching Butterbean land a keylock on him had me laughing for some odd reason. He hits hard like a mother fucker and most of his MMA wins have been submissions...go figure.

James Thompson vs. Don Frye
Although I am not much of a fan for Megapunk, I had a good feeling that he would of won anyhow. Most of the old fighters like him (and many others) are just too one-sided or have not adapted to MMA now. Although I think Megapunk is a sloppy brawler and not all that smart in the ring, I do like how he is very aggressive fighter in every fight I have seen him in.

Rameau Theirry Sokoudjou vs. Ricardo Arona
I watched Sokoudjou's fight against Rogerio and thought that it was a fluke, but now after seeing him knock out Ricardo Arona, I think he is going to be an interesting fighter. He has shown that he has excellent balance, takedown defense, and knockout power, but his chin is still questionable along with his stamina. Seeing a ADCC veteran not being able to take him down was also a big shocker for me.

Anybody else watch this event?

 

ya ordered it on sunday.

fujita let me down. The only match i really cared for was Shinya Aoki vs that nobody. That's my ninja. Good chin. want some factoids on Thierry?

my friends used to train at Boxing Club here in San Diego and Theirry was a boxercise instructor. He drove a Tercel and loved the song "I'm Bossy." Just an fyi. They said his technique was aiiiiiiiight but what he was known for was his brute strength. prolly all that judo or something
