Had some friends over to watch the fights last night and we all had a great time. Love the entire PPV.

My thoughts...

Gracie got owned. Well...90% owned. Anyone else on earth would have tapped to that armlock. Gracie didn't even change the expression on his face. Matt went on to land 11 of 17 punches onto the head of a HELPLESS Royce.

I really enjoyed the PPV. UFC could have really pulled a Vince and been done with the show early after the main went quick but they jammed matches on to the show. We might have seen the entire card.

Dean Lister was impressive with some move I've never even seen before. Dudes got skill.

Alessio, while doing nothing to help his cause with the judges....avoided every advance attempt by Sanchez. It was something to watch.

Best undercard fight had to go to Spencer Fisher vs. Matt Wiman. Any fight that features a guy coming back from being seconds away from getting choked to a flying knee knock out finish...has to be entertaining.

Once Riggs -v- Swick made it past the feeling out process (which took forever it seemed) Swick made it look fucking easy!

UFC is on a major roll right now.

ya that was deff a good thing showing us almost all the fight especially after the on demand announcment. if lister drops to 185 i would love to see him and horn go at it and then the winner of that fights either marquart or A.silva. vera should get maybe gonzaga for a tune up to face the winner of monson vs the winner of AA/Sylvia because supposidly monson is number 1 contender. pe de pano is also around for a possible opponent for vera. but him and monson are the only two who i actually think would give vera any trouble. if he can keep it on the feet he should easily beat pe de pano but monson has the ground game and stand up to compete if he can get by veras reach advantage. he would deff have the strength advantage.

one other thing why the hell am i a rookie now? i aint to no rookie!

read the announcement i made thats on top of all the forums, i changed them. you can customize it in your user cp to whatever you want now.

i didn't find myself overly excited in this ppv except for the vera/silva fight. don't know why, i thought it was a decent card.

I don't think Vera would have any problems with Monson standing. Pe De Pano didn't and shit I might even have better striking than him. Pe De Pano used a leg kick and a dumbass stance and survived a lot of time on the feet with Monson. Between actually having striking skills and also like Pe De Pano having a big reach advantage, Vera should handle Monson on the feet. On the ground Vera better be on top, but other than that he should be fine. Isn't he supposed to be whicked on the ground also? I know nothing about Vera's ground game except they call him a BJJ Brown belt. But I don't know who gave him his brown belt or how much of his submission skills have been proven in the MMA world, etc. So if he's as good on the ground as he's supposed to be, I guess the only guys in his way at Heavyweight would be Arlovski and Sylvia.

And dudes post above just reminded me how stacked 185 seems to be overnight. Mike Swick is all of a sudden the real deal, Anderson Silva is confirmed into the UFC (up til just a day or so ago people were still swearing UFC jumped the gun announcing A Silva on their website), Leben is going into the highest class of competition at 185 now, Marquardt is hanging around, Dean Lister debuted - took out a 205 lb. legit contender, and is moving back to 185. You've got Prangley out there still and Sonnen. There's some shit waiting for Rich whenever he gets back.

Vera trains BJJ under Lloyd Irvin. I don't know that much about Irvin but he is supposed to be pretty good at BJJ.

i tried watching the pay-per-view at hooters but i was unsuccessful. july 8 i'm going to make sure we get to hooters early. i had no idea how many UFC fans were in my area. i also have heard alot about a MMA facility opening up. if i didn't have asthma, i would at least give it a shot.
