UFC is (FINALLY) releasing a Best of Ultimate Fight Night DVD.

 

VIVA LIFE~!

I passed on it. It's a single-disc release and includes fights from the first three UFN events.

 

Match listing:

 

Josh Koscheck vs. Pete Spratt

Mike Swick vs. Gideon Ray

Kenny Florian vs. Alex Karalexis

Spencer Fisher vs. Thiago Alves

Brandon Vera vs. Fabiano Scherner

Chris Leben vs. Edwin Dewees

Spencer Fisher vs. Aaron Riley

Melvin Guillard vs. Josh Neer

Duane Ludwig vs. Jonathan Goulet

Chris Leben vs. Jorge Rivera

Drew Fickett vs. Josh Burkman

Stephan Bonnar vs. James Irvin

 

Not exactly a great match listing. A "Best of UFN" release without Parisyan vs. Sanchez seems wrong.

Yeah, that's total crap for AJ.

 

Only two possible calls could have been made at the end of the fight

-Johnson wins via DQ for REPEATED eye pokes

-No contest

 

How they GAVE the win to Burns just blows my mind

Damn, what a buzz-kill. And seriously, they didn't have fucking 63 seconds of space to put in Silva vs Leben?

So it seems like the reason we're not getting Fisher vs Melvin at UFC 90 is because Captain Katrina got himself arrested on a probation violation on August 13th. What a naturally athletic moron.

Meltzer on Evans knocking out Liddell:

 

"Liddell was always criticized for his stand-up technique, particularly keeping his hands low and his looping style punches. But it worked for him, because he had knockout power in both hands, so didn’t have to land a lot because the right shot would put most people down, and because he had an iron jaw. Once knocked out you become more susceptible to knockouts, and frequent knockouts when you are older is not a good thing. To me, this knockout doesn’t say Liddell’s chin is gone, because the overhand right haymaker Evans threw when countering a Liddell uppercut would have knocked almost any human out, and probably stunned a lot of wild animals."

You know how half my posts in this forum are asking for links to things I missed? Yeah, this is one of them.

 

I missed Fight Night and TUF last night since I thought they were airing next week. I can't watch the replay of TUF on Spike tonight since it's on at the same time as the Smallville premiere, and I do not have a DVR.

 

Does anyone have links to either or both?

Speaking of the Fort Bragg show this is nothing other then pure speculation on my part but I'd be surprised if we didn't see Franklin on the show given the amount of publicity and more or less general knowledge in regards to his support for the military.

Wait... THE YOSHIDA?

 

If you mean THE YOSHIDA from PRIDE, no. If you mean THE YOSHIDA that was supposed to fight Karo at UFC 88, yes.

 

Yeah, I was drunk so I had images of THE YOSHIDA from PRIDE coming out and ready to Judo a motherfucker, but this is even better.

This may be a dumb question, but this is for paying customers not just troops, right? If so, I'll try and land some tix for this. Have never been to a UFC and this would be the first time in AGES one has been held in NC.
