Just a heads-up for everyone, this weekend Showtime will be free if you don't subscribe. Strikeforce for everyone!

I don't think SHO Extreme will be free for the prelims, though.

1. i remember renting UFC 1 from a local video store in the mid 90's (?). thought it was kind of boring. caught a few early TUF episodes with my brother. really picked the sport up around 2006-2007, about the time many of the pride guys were making their way into the UFC (notably, rampage)
2. A. Silva, Pettis, Cerrone, Machida, Lauzon
3. UFC 73

1. UFC 1. I kinda liked it, but was bored to tears and hated Royce Gracie because it wasn't exciting. If I had only knew...

2:
- Junior Dos Santos
- GSP
- Jose Aldo
- the retired Oleg Taktarov
- Benson Henderson

3: None, actually. Missed a UFC in Tulsa once.

Wand is undefeated vs fighters born in Japan, and I don't see that changing. Wand KOs Brian Cann and becomes unstoppable again.

Wand was never unstoppable. He spent his career fighting undersized Japanese cans and lost twice in a row when he fought real competition in Arona. I give him credit for his second win against Rampage though.

Tito and Vitor also made a joke of him in the UFC.

Sure, you can bang with me. But you must go to my weight class and agree to my terms. I refuse to bang with anyone above my own weight class unless its to save a thread.

I was fanatical about Pokemon in the Red/Blue/Yellow days. Probably the longest running game franchise with the least amount of evolution going today. I understand how you can still market that to the newest crop of 8 year olds but long time fans should really be tired of that series by now.

I had all of one post in OT3(?), and lurked through the rest of the thread. I know almost nothing about MMA yet, but this thread seems like a good place to start - new year, new thread, new chances, y'know?

I'mma read the hell out of the OP and watch some matches tonight so that I don't embarrass myself too badly later.

Yeah, I played the hell out of Pokemon red. I agree too, it's incredible how the game is basically still the same.

Feel free to ask questions. Makes me realize there's no real simple way to dive into the sport at a base level, as far as I know. There should really be a go-to documentary, book, collection of fights that gives historical context...something.

This is somewhat helpful: http://www.ufc.com/discover/

Really wishing UFC on FOX 6 gets a 1.0 rating so they drop this midget fighting nonsense.

135 was already pushing it but having a stable of four 125 lbs fighters and calling it a division is ridiculous.

Even Carano and Cyborg fought at 145 ffs.



Johnson x Dodson

Rampage x Glover

Cerrone x Pettis

Koch x Lamas

Grant x Wiiman

Pretty shitty card compared to previous Fox outings. One would think they would stack the card with such crappy main event. Hoping ratings take a nose dive after the Rampage fight to send a point. Joe Silva needs to get ousted asap.

Like a matchmaker decides to add new divisions anyway. The actual matchmaking and signings at flyweight have been solid.

I guess we can ignore the biggest draws in combat sports weight like 10 pounds more than these dudes.
