I don't recall the Firefly thread being large, so there will probably be a lag in regards to Joss fans getting on board. Natch, I haven't seen it. More cause I forgot/don't have kaybell. It will be downloaded/streamed sometime this week.

WHAT IS GOING ON?!?!

Jin! Sawyer! YAAY!!

Wow, this is all like some international suspense thriller with Clive Owen in it.

I swear to god I will fight you. *wipes away tear* ...I will... *bursts out crying*

Shiiit, you get all of the racism but none of the benefits.

Lower bowl, 5-15 rows up. Pref. on the sides rather than corners.

Cain looked absolutely vicious. Those leg kicks were ridiculous. Neer/Mac was a really good fight, as was Joe/Stephens. This was a successful show in that it was both entertaining and it progressed the fighters who were expected to win.

I've always wanted to go to Chicago.

The Deep Impact to Paul Blartts Armageddon.

What the hell are you going on aboot? I was clearly referring to Naomi Watts and the hanging vine as the poster comparison to Lesnar and Kongo.

Lesnar vs. Kongo would be insane business. IMAGINE THE POSTER! * *Approximation

YES! I've wondered why they haven't put that fight together yet.

LOL, looking at Miks sig in succession with LOTC's is awesome. It creates an animation of sorts with GSP beating the shit out of Penn. Edit: OMG it's like one of those magic tricks where the persons head falls into their body. BUT WHERE IS THE MAGIC?!

The best part was Jin realizing who the young pregnant chick was. JIN~!~!!

You have to join fight club to get any sort of good, "cheap" ticket. The scalping will be amazing after the pre-sale. The 80 (?) bucks you spend on fight club will be better than the 300 bucks you spend on a 50 dollar ticket. Also, buy extras and sell them for double. The show will definitely sell out. Take away all the people who bought tickets last time and you still have enough to fill the bell centre.

It may have hindered BJ from stifling Georges' GnP with his pseudo rubber guard for a round or two, but I don't think BJ would have been able to implement a full offensive Rubber guard simply because GSP wasn't really giving him anything to work with. Realistically speaking, since it appears to me that Nurse didn't use a lot of Vaseline, how much grease is needed for it to be effective?

Dana's recent blog is fantastic. Gono practicing his entrance, his Stephan Bonnar post-fight pep talk, him being PISSED about vasgate, Wandy betting him $100 on Tavares (and subsequently rubbing his belly, saying that it's going to pay for his dinner). Oh, and BJ looking broken

But Fedor is in a shit division. GSP is in arguably the most stacked division in MMA and dominates it. He has no shortage of fighters to choose from, so he doesn't move up. A win over BJ is better than a win over Irvin. PFP is purely in regards to skill and the fighter in relation to his division (his competition). If you want to say that Fedor could beat any fighter in the world, that's fine. If you want to say that Fedor could beat a bigger, stronger, heavyweight GSP (or do as well as a smaller WW) you'd be fairly nuts. A division with highly skilled fighters (WW) is a lot tougher to succeed in than one with few (HW), and therefore a fighter who dominates such a division deserves greater respect. In terms of wrestling, JJ, striking, strategy, conditioning, etc. do you really think Fedor is better than GSP? GSP is the better wrestler, is better conditioned, is the better striker (Fedor has more KO power, but GSP outshines him in terms of footwork, technique, variety of strikes, percentages landing, etc.), has better offensive positioning (I'd go so far as to say ground game, though Fedor may be better of his back), and I'd say GSP has better GnP at this point (It's been a while since those Nog and Heath beatings). Not to mention one of Fedor's best features -his strategy- was missing from his last fight (unless you really are going to say he intentionally lulled Arlovski into throwing a flying knee), while Georges displayed excellent gameplanning against BJ. Skill for skill, I'd put GSP against anyone.

Haku?

Um. BJ Penn is a really awesome fighter. Do you know that? If St. Pierre raped him, he would have caused less physical, mental, and emotional damage than what he did Saturday. St. Pierre has serious, serious, skills. Very few flaws. His all-round game is by far the best in MMA. I heart Fedor. But between his last performance and Georges' most recent, the difference is striking. I could go on for days about how fucking good Rush is. His performance last night was another level from what everyone else is fighting. Lots of people make comments about size, but straight-up, St. Pierre was better. Period. Dramatically better. That performance is PHD MMA, to me. GSP made it a close, clinch fight to get BJ's shoulders filled with lactic acid and therefore get tired, which would affect his boxing, ability to defend standing and on the ground. How fucked up is that? He has scientists examining his opponents, breaking them down to a molecular level, examining their DNA to find out their genetic weaknesses and predispositions. When asked about the takedown attempts in the first two rounds, Rush is saying the strategy wasn't to get takedowns, because then it would be a JJ fight. The strategy was to make BJ fight off the takedowns. Mindblowing stuff.

The GSP/BJ staredown, the whole time I'm audibly saying "oh shit! oh shit! oh shit! oh shit! oh shit! oh shit!". How can anyone hate Clay Guida? Serious. The dude is such a cool, energetic, positive guy. Probably gives clothes to the homeless, heals sick children, and goes to retirement homes just to let old people tell their story to someone who cares. How can anyone hate Clay Guida? Nate Diaz, still, HATES, Clay Guida.

No way GSP is looking past this fight. BJ is respected by pretty much every fighter out there. No one takes him lightly.
