Lord of The Curry

Also, from what I've heard the finish came when Shinya was in Hansen's guard and got clocked. Sooooooo sweet. No word on whether Aoki tried to pull guard from somebody else's guard to try and save his ass from certain dom.

I as well think it'll be Pineapple that knocks TDK off #1. Also think people are underestimating the Mummy 3, IIRC the last 2 did well and it's a fairly well-known franchise.

HAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNSENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN SUCK A DICK RAINBOW PANTS

I'm thinking Fedor got something around 1.5

- Campbells Soup - Bread - Schneiders turkey and ham - Milk - Pork chops

I forgot to mention some of the pseudo-PRIDE aspect of things I enjoyed like the fighters coming down at the beginning and also the confetti explosion at the end. The MMAJunkie article on the show made it seem like the attendance was pretty high in comparison to UFC running California and that the closed-circuit orders were solid. Too bad they likely lost their shirt on fighter pay and God knows what else.

Fuck yes. Glazer was annoying as shit. I never thought somebody would make me want to hear Mauro but he did.

Thanks for sharing but don't get offended if this ends up being absorbed into the MMA Pictures thread that already exists. Keep the photo's coming.

Fuck did Cain look awesome there. Just brutal power and control. The fact that it was against JOB sweetens the murdering all the more. Me want Rory Markham vs Marcus Davis.

I think if they can't do Randy/Fedor they'll give Arlovski the shot before Barnett. Striking while the iron is hot and whatnot.

That's pretty much it. And honestly, if you're UFC and you want to encourage Tyson to finish fights putting him up against guys like Aurelio and now possibly Sherk is not the way to do it.

So did Vera look that bad? I'm hearing phrases like "205's version of Tim Sylvia" being thrown around elsewhere which is fucking harsh.

YES! That had me and my friends just losing it. Man, between the UFN and Affliction show last night might have been the Night of the Knockout. Markham, Silva, Belfort, Barnett and Arlovski all impressed.

I'm confused as to how exactly Burns won that.

The Fedor/Arlovski/Barnett/Belfort finishes were fucking GRIMY. Hominick's fight was solid, good for him. I enjoyed the hell out of this because whenever Megadeath was on I'd just switch to UFC.

I don't know if Randy will be back for a while. If anything I imagine they'll either do Fedor/Arlovski or Fedor/Barnett, assuming we get those outcomes tonight.

Speaking of UFC 89 there's musings about that we'll see Tyson Griffin vs Sean Sherk on that card as well or possibly the November card.

And they're both total douchebags but for vastly different reasons.

Is HDNet carrying the DREAM card?

So Affliction cracked the glass on the case surrounding their backup fighter in case Aleks didn't get cleared and we now get Gary Goodridge vs Buentello on the undercard. Different opponent but I still expect the same type of fight.

Hopefully my dream (heh) scenario of Aoki making it to the finals and neither Alvarez or 'Jiri can continue on due to injury to Hansen (who has beaten Kultar Gil earlier in the evening) steps up and avenges being the first ever gogoplata victim in MMA and makes Shinya cry......again.

Aleks/Buentello OFF due to Aleks "not meeting requirements" aka Dude Served Prison in Russia and We Won't License Him.

Haha. That's good stuff.

Even without Diego/Alves that's still a very solid card. So, I've been thinking about the possibility that Anderson comes out unscathed against Irvin and fight Okami in September and I've come to the conclusion that it ain't happening. I just can't see Silva doing a title defense just under a month after the Irvin fight. If anything it might be a good idea to make Silva/Okami the headliner for the 89 card as UFC's primary concern was that a fight between two foreigners for a title wouldn't draw so giving it away on free tv could be an option. Hell, if they were willing to give away Hendo/Page on Spike there's no reason Silva vs Okami wouldn't work.
