Yep, well, that pretty much could not possibly have turned out differently. Unless Fedor had decided to pound him instead of stretch his elbow out.Hope if it was worth it ($$) Lindland.

But really, only one thing could have happened, and it did.
remember the free ufc is on a tape delay this weekend.. so stay away from sherdog.
I try to do this anyway.
youtube?

What a fast KO punch that was! Alexander is good, but he definitely needs to work more on endurance.
yes.
:5pager:
just kidding re: 5 pages. definitely wonder what the Japanese fans will think of it though.
Sokoujou? Those two wins were impressive, but he still has a lot to prove.
I told you the Japanese fans would hate.
I'm not Japanese. But anyway naw not hating, just being rational. He's got tremendous potential, but after 2 wins over legit opponents, dudes wanna crown him.
I was saying over at Sherdog, that MMA fans jump from one bandwagon to the next like none other.
sorry mayne. we've never met; I always sorta assumed from your name...
anyway the way the Japanese market the black guys is pretty shameful. remember Sapp? he was marketed total Mandingo-style. and now they got footage of this guy at the zoo making animal sounds!
It's all good. I might as well be Japanese anyway. I speak it.
Yea, true. Especially the last one "Sokoujou, straight out the jungle! That's where he trains!" sorta thing. I feel you. But then they did the same for Arona, so I felt okay about it. I think the thing is, it's very easy for them to be marketed this way, because they are so strikingly different from typically smaller Japanese fighters.
For instance:
Joachim Hansen "The Executioner from the North". They had him running through the Norweigan forrest or some shit, like a mad man. haha.
or Sakakibara joking about creating a "Monster weight class" in the announcement of the Butterbean/Zulu fight. Where he'll collect all of the monsters from the around the world.
Although not with bad intentions, the Japanese have always been kind of racist, usually through mockery of "outsiders" (gai-jin).
I will have my junk food ready.
I mean, UFC is exciting when Chuck Norris or an ex-boxer is in the house. On the other hand Bodog had Putin and Berlusconi! pretty impressive.
next MMA event I wanna sit in the fascist section!
please tell me you are not hating on van damme's daughter!
yeah, we can both agree when it comes to ring girls no one is fucking with KOTC.
dude that ain't fair! they have had some FIIIINE black-haired beauties in teh past...but I guess their game has indeed fallen off. I will admit it has been a minute since I peeped KOTC...I'm more into the little Pride feeder orgs...
you right you right. I have long admired the girls in the print and TV adds....and long laughed at the product itself!
definitely is on some gimicky shit. what is this, an EXTREME energy drink for strippers who really "give it their all each time - every time!"? whatever, I am not mad at that.
but I am not about to buy a can of this sugar juice. catch me sipping a V8 with some of those Randy-approved Lightforce greens mixed in!
I believe it was Pride 33, the first US show. Nasty OLD[/b] bitches w/ fake tits, jumping up and down around ring-side.

Hell yea. Some of the UFC ring girls are hot as well.
LOL Did he respond?!
word. have you seen the one where he enters a judo tournament at like 14 yrs old? dude doesn't even know judo and proceeds to win the tourney on the strength of his BJJ.
