^That IS weird. Loads right up for me. Try Firefox as the browser, maybe?

Or, you could go to the UFC site. They've gotta have a link for it on there.

I just started watching this. Are they aware that the positions they get themselves into are like gay sex? It's hot, and they're barefoot, cool. I wrestled in high school and always tried not to get a boner but this did happen at times. I just got a 65" flat screen and watching this in HD is like they are wrestling in my living room. HOT.

According to my brother, who trains quite a few MMA folks out in California, yes, they know that people say that. It tends to elicit eyerolling. lol

^ Thanks. I'm sure it would. It is very exciting to watch. I hope a new season starts soon.

Man, I'd been salivating at the thought of Rich Franklin fighting Chuck Liddell. The fight with Couture has potential, but Randy's fights usually bore the hell outta me.

Tito & Chuck's continued rivalry should be pretty sweet though.

I think a new season of TUF starts on March 31.

I'm confused about all that. I thought Tito left the UFC, and that Chuck retired. Will this be through another promoter?

Tito came back, got beaten by Forrest pretty recently.

Boy, he must've had to eat some serious crow!

Chuck? I don't think he retired, just took time off to do DWTS, which i forgot to watch.

Now they're both the coaches on the 31st... that will be awesome!

That will be awesome indeed!

Heh. Yeah, I think I watched a snippet of one portion of Chuck lead-footing it around the dance floor, and then out of respect for him, ceased to watch. lol

Did you ever figure out whether or not you can get UFC 111 at the theaters in your town?

Griffin vs Ortiz II was AWESOME!!!! Had that fight saved on DVR, but accidently erased it the other day

 

[Darkflower]

So who saw the fight last night?

I did not, thanks to a cold medicine laying me out til around 10, but i'm watching the prelims and the show now!

I saw the fights of course, but I didn't want to say anything since I didn't know if you'd gotten a chance to watch! I still don't dare say anything, but . . . by the time you see this, you'll see that there was one fight where someone took a serious beatdown. lol Can't wait until you come back in here and react! I know I was like

 

[willsboy84]

This season's gonna be fucking AWESOME!!! I mean between the crazy talent of some of these guys, and the bad blood between Chuck & Tito I like the quips Chuck was making about tapping out to strikes, and I have to say that I'm looking forward to him wrecking the fuck outta Tito

I think I'm putting my money on Clayton(the face mangler with the green hair) to win it.

On a more shallow note, I have to say that Tavarres is FUCKING HOT!!! Soon as he walked out, I was like "Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn!!!!"

*sigh*

Some day I'll be able to afford cable again.

 

[willsboy84]

would you be able to catch 'em on spike.com? that reminds me--gotta catch Monday's TNA.

Hmm. I actually don't know the answer to that question! Good call! I'm gonna go check it out.

Clayton surprised--and disappointed me too. Honestly saw him tearing through most of those guys. Actually since I watched the show a day late, I got the outcome spoiled by an advertisement for the next show, but I was still letdown by Clayton's performance, and lackluster attitude.

Gotta say, Tito kinda surprised me too, with the camraderie he shows towards his team. Nice how he was trying to get Clayton(I don't remember him being that cute in the premiere) to keep his head up.

 

[Jersey Domino]

Tito absolutely FLOORED me with that action. Like, it's one of the few times where i found myself absolutely dumbstruck.

Maybe the man has a heart that matches his mouth?

But yes, Clayton was a disappointment, and sadly, i'm actually kinda glad he lost - when it comes to TUF, i'm not much for whiners(still annoyed at Mitrione from last season).

Well when it comes to TUF Tito was always a good coach so that didn't surprise me at all.

But Clayton...yeah I was disapointed too I thought he would make it very far. But guess not.

And Clayton kinda reminds me of Mac Danzig from season 6.

Not gonna spoil anything, but word is UFC 112 will go down as one of the worst in history. Forgot about the tme difference thing, didn't realize it had already gone down. Good thing for spolers(in this case) as I was thisclose to ordering the event last minute tonight.

I looked at the promo and knew I wouldn't want anything to do with it, so I'm not surprised.

Keep in mind when I say this that I don't know what happens during the event, but for me, pretty much any time Anderson Silva fights, it's a non-event. Not worthy of being a headliner as it always ends up the same. 'Course, I'll regret that the one time I don't watch and some renegade knocks him the fuck out.

I was PRAYING that Silva would end up getting submitted. They really should start fining that fool for his antics.

I saw an interview with him where he said he didn't see anything special about GSP as a fighter. Just a complete, arrogant tool.

So from what i'm hearing from you two, Silva won again?

I don't know, because I didn't watch. But, he always wins. I don't know if the fighter who can beat him has yet been discovered. I will rejoice when he is.

Actually didn't see the fight, but apparently he was doing that showboating shit again--dancing around, hamming it up. Basically disrespecting the other fighter, saying "you're not even worth me putting in the effort"...

Some people excuse it as him just proving that he's the better fighter

I'm gonna have to spank that fool extra hard, next time I play Undisputed--2010's out in May
