That is true.

Good news is my wife and I's anniversary is the 1st so we are going to be out of town.

We'll be at a wings place watching OSU in the Rose Bowl on the 1st, and at a sports bar watching the UFC 108 on the 2nd...will be a fun weekend.

So, first PPV in a while that won't be on my cable bill, but I will still see it.

jmog, sounds like a good 2 days. UFC 108 isn't worth ordering.

I know, I haven't seen the fight yet but from what I read I don't think it was rust. Sounded like Le was dominating but couldn't finish Smith off. Le started to wear down in the 3rd and Smith caught him with a big punch sending Le down, then jumped on and GnP'd till ref stopped it. I will try to find the fight online sometime this week!

What the hell was Hordeski thinking of not only walking away but turning his back, he never saw that kick coming!!

Scott Smith can win any fight at any point. I love watching his fights for that very reason.

Oh how far did 108 fall? At one time I was pumped to get this ppv and now I don't think I am.

The Smith fight should of been stopped first round when he was curled up in a ball getting punched in the face for a good 45 seconds IMO

Henderson Vs Shields should be an awesome fight. I really like Jake Shields and think he could really compete for a title in the UFC. The only Problem I have with him is that he needs to stay down in weight not move up. In Strikeforce it makes sense because he has no one left to fight but, If he went to the UFC he would have good competition at his true weight. I also like Henderson talking about fighting Shields then if he wins defending the title once then Moving up to fight Fedor or Moussiasi? Those fights would be epic and keep enough people interested in Strikeforce

Mousassi/Hendo is a fight I want to see. I like Shields but don't think he can beat Hendo. Hendo will cancel out Shields wrestling and his striking is far superior.

Shields is a great fighter, but I don't think he has a chance against Hendo.
