Get ready for your new ESPN.com. I have Insider so I have the Beta version now. I think it's ok.

My initial instinct is that it'd be a much closer fight, if nothing else. It's hard for me to make a comittment one way or another because I have no idea how Diego is going to perform at 155. Ken-Flo has improved leaps and bounds since their first fight - I'm not sure I could say the same for Diego. I'd love to see this fight. I'm leaning towards Kenny taking it now.

Of course Desmond and Penny aren't happy ever after. Ben promised Charles Widmore that he's going to kill his fucking daughter.

I love how Todd Haris was like, "OMG, WTF?" And then Frank dryly says something like, "It's your standard rolling axe kick, Todd. You hope to catch your opponent off guard and freeze him a little bit so that you can follow it with an upkick." (read in Mir's voice) Anybody else catch Frank saying "this fucking thing isn't working" when they were showing the main event promos... Aw, man. On a side note, I'm kinda talking myself into Frank having a chance against Nog. Damn you Fight! Magazine.

He's pretty fuckin' intense that's for sure. Frank tries his heart out and he usually sucks really damn hard but that was a good line.

Kang's loss to Mousasi looks a lot better in retrospect. At the time I seem to remember everyone saying that Kang essentially shit the bed to lose to him but I don't really think that's the case now.

I personally wouldn't mind Andrei "Hey Tim Sylvia, how taste my pee-pee" Arlovski being considered the top heavyweight in the world. As long as he keeps fighting like he's been fighting.

Don't forget that it's two episodes on tonight - back to back. I know every time they do that someone shows up in the thread to complain.

Shaping up to be a good card.

There's almost no point to that fight. Although if Ken somehow upset Big Timmay that would be the best.

7.6. You were very close. http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/reco...-and-heartbreak

Meant to post this awhile ago. God I love this picture.

More than half way through and I like "Paranoid" and "Street Lights" and if that's all I end up liking then it's two more songs then I honestly expected to. And no Pitchfork review as of yet.

http://www.hulu.com/watch/46689/the-simpso...oomsticks?c=133 VX will appreciate this. I found it hilarious.

http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/reco...inese-democracy The review you've all been waiting for.

Thread has been changed from the DREAM grand prix thread to the Japanese MMA thread. There aren't many of us who are participating in this thread anyway so might as well just consolidate it.

Most up-to-date card: Location: Dublin, Ireland Venue: The 02 Broadcast: Pay Per View Dan Henderson vs. Rich Franklin Mark Coleman vs. Mauricio "Shogun" Rua Marcus Davis vs. Chris Lytle Alan Belcher vs. Denis Kang Martin Kampmann vs. TBA Jeremy Horn vs. Rousimar Palhares Thomasz Drwal vs. Ivan Serati Nate Mohr vs. Denis Siver Andre Gusmao vs. Antonio Mendes Abdul Mohamed vs. TBA Tom Egan vs. John Hathaway

FINAL CARD IN ORIGINAL POST 2 days away! Torres in a war Bowles stays undefeated My only prediction for Tamura/Fabiano is greatness Benavidez first round KO Hendricks first round TKO GnP Hey - a televised card where I'm legitimately interested in all 5 televised matches... how about that.

Good. Great even. I love 24/7 and this fight deserves it more than Randy/Brock.

I like Kanye. I want to like the album. I have a very strong feeling that I won't like it. I'm still holding out hope that I will like it but don't feel strong about that... hence I don't want to confirm my dislike. I'm going to download it soon, though.

I haven't had the heart to listen to this yet. I have to admit... "Love Lockdown" grew on me a bit but I'm not really feeling it.

I've subscribed to Fight! since the beginning. The sticker comes off 100% clean every time. I'd recommend the sub... I think it's $18.95. You'll save a ton of money.

I personally like Madagascar but I can definitely see how people could hate it. It's one of the most overproduced songs I've ever heard in my life.

Yeah I don't approve. I was digging Faber/Aldo and Garcia/Brown as the next 145 bouts at the top of the card. Minus the amazing Tamura/Fabiano match in two weeks, of course.

Avon Barksdale, hostage negotiator. My man. I didn't like the episode as much as I thought I would. It was a damn good episode but I really thought something noteworthy was going to happen. For a second I thought 13 was going to die. They are really going the slow-burn route on House/Cuddy.
