prelims start at 5pm est. main card 7pm est. according to my cable listing.

I went to see Pat Barry's first kickboxing fight in 7 years here in Richmond last night. I think this was a tune up fight for when he joins Glory in May since it was under Glory Rules. He looked rusty and tentative in the first round but covered up well when his opponent blitzed him. In the second round he came out aggressive and it resulted in this.

edit: I forgot to mention that Joe Silva was in attendance as well which was interesting.

I'm real pumped for this fight tonight getting to see Mousasi finally face an elite opponent after the Gustafsson fight fell through. I think part of the reason he always looked so lackadaisical is because he never faced an opponent that truly tested him. I think him putting in the work to get down to the right weight class is evidence enough that he is now taking a more serious approach to fighting.

Koscheck over Lawler UD Round 3

Neer over McGee TKO Round 2

Faber over Menjivar UD Round 3

Machida over Henderson UD Round 3

Rousey over Carmouche SUB Round 1

I really want to see Lawler knock out Koscheck but I know it's wishful thinking since Koscheck will likely wrestle his way to a decision.

I didn't see the whole fight but it sounded like Mo made the same mistake Overeem did vs. Bigfoot.

VELASQUEZ-SILVA 2, DOS SANTOS-OVEREEM BOOKED FOR UFC 160 IN MAY

For the second straight Memorial Day weekend, the UFC is going to get heavy with its pay-per-view.

The UFC 160 main event will be a heavyweight title fight between champion Cain Velasquez (11-1 MMA, 9-1 UFC) and Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva (18-4 MMA, 2-1 UFC), a rematch from this past Memorial Day weekend. The co-main event features former champ Junior dos Santos (15-2 MMA, 9-1 UFC) against Alistair Overeem (36-12 MMA, 1-1 UFC).

The power in Aldo's leg kicks is just ridiculous also.

hurts me to watch .

:chug:

don't understand why reem would drop his hands against someone with power like bigfoot.

Never thought Maia would out-Fitch Jon Fitch

at this shirt Khabib wore at the weigh-in in Brazil.

I'm hoping that Roger and Jacare make their way to the UFC as well.

No love for Mousasi? I've been wanting to see him in the UFC for a long time now. He has high level striking and a good submission game as well. Obviously his weakness is wrestling but he has committed full time to training in the States with wrestlers in the last year.

Hoping this means we get to see JDS vs Overeem in 2013 if Overeem beats Big Foot on Super Bowl weekend. I've been waiting for that fight for years now and a lot of smack talk has gone on which would create a great grudge match not to mention a stand up war.

Also, I didn't see this posted but I have been looking forward to this match up since the old Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix.

Alistair Overeem vs. Antonio Silva on Super Bowl weekend

The sidelined UFC heavyweight star plans on making his return to the Octagon at UFC 156 in Las Vegas, where he'll meet Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva, according to a Tuesday report by the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

The match is contingent upon Overeem being relicensed by the Nevada Athletic Commission. Overeem is suspended in Nevada through Dec. 27 and must apply and be approved for a new fighter's license before the bout can be made official.

The UFC has confirmed verbal agreements are in place in for the fight.

If he's cleared, Overeem (36-11) and Silva (17-4) will meet in what's shaping up to be a strong card on Feb. 2 at Vegas' Mandalay Bay Events Center. The bout is headlined by a quasi-super fight, as former lightweight champion Frankie Edgar challenges current featherweight champion Jose Aldo Jr.; and Rashad Evans is expected to return and meet Antonio Rogerio Nogueira.

We're officially the first 0 and 8 team in NBA history, right?

Washington became only the second team in NBA history to start 0-8 in back-to-back seasons.

not quite but still...:doh:

I always thought Cung Le was an over-rated striker but man the timing on that counter was beautiful.

KO of the year?
