Lesnar should return this summer, it's in this thread a few pages back.

Ortiz/Griffin?? Did I miss something they just fought again not too long ago and Ortiz just backed out of TUF and his fight with Chuck.

lol. Nothing like choosing the FAKE wresling over real fighting.. you could always pay for 1 and watch the other online for free.

Considering that nearly every stream gets shut down for WM I'll end up buying that and watch UFC 111 online or a bdubs.

Going to an NAAFS event next Saturday. UFC feeder program primarily based in the midwest, mainly Ohio.

My stepson has some big decisions to make ahead of him. He'll be watching the event, too, and I'll be taking him to an MMA training gym next week to get a taste of it himself. He's flirted with the idea for several years, but I've recently got an "in" at a local gym. Guess we'll see what shapes up.

Sakara vs Irvin

Half way through the rd Sakara lands a big punch and Irvin gets time for an eye poke. During the stoppage Ref rules it was a punch and not an eye poke (correct call) and fight is stopped. Sakara by TKO.
