::rooting for randy couture::

1st main card fight of the night
NATE QUARRY vs. DAMIEN MAIA – uhhh, this doesnt look good for Quarry so far. At all. Maia has his back with a body triangle locked on, looking for a RNC. Looks like he is under Nates’ chin right now, but not for very long, still got 3 minutes left in the round. it’s over now, 100% zhoozhitsu, Damien Maia by RNC, round 1. Also, Nate and Damien kissed on the mouth.

ring girl Arianny Celeste is looking hawt, as usual.

Randy backstage on the couch with his wife before the fight = fail?

2nd main card fight of the night
GABRIEL GONZAGA vs. JOSH HENDRICKS – Josh Hendricks is the dude who Randy Couture brought in to simulate Brock Lesnar for training. He enters the cage and looks around like he must be a badass, and his agent Ken Pavia says he’s going to KO Gonzaga in the first round. Also, Hendricks has some strange lumps all over him. PROPS to Gonzaga for teh awesome into music: Glenn Danzig “Mother“. Do you wanna butt heads with me?

LOL @ Hendricks KO’ing Gonzaga in round one. THE OPPOSITE happened. Gabriel Gonzaga knee’d him in the gut a couple times real hard, then put a fist against his chin real good FTW. Gabriel Gonzaga wins by TKO.

3rd fight of the night shown
MATT BROWN vs. RYAN THOMAS – They’re showing us this prelim fight because the first two ended quickly. It was a damn good fight really, Matt Brown ended up winning by armbar in round two.

4th Pay-per-view fight of the night
DUSTIN “McLovin” HAZELETT vs. TAMDEN “Barncat” McCRORY – People say this is the battle of the geeks. I think Rogan said the same thing back when McCrory fought Luke Cummo. Regardless, Dustin Hazelett is sporting an epic beard for this fight. Dude, I got to pick Hazelett for this fight, he’s walking out to CCR’s Bad Moon Risin’. Credence FTW. So far, these “nerds” are trying to knock eachother the hell out. Wow, that was a helluva fight, Hazelett has crazy jiujitsu and he used it well when the fight hit the ground. Joe Rogan is pimping the Rubber Guard, and rightfully so. Dustin Hazelett wins by armbar submission in round 1. Read the rest of this entry »

…”of the world” as he wants to be known. Forrest Griffin outpaced Quinton Rampage Jackson to win a 5 round decision. Rampage was very humble in defeat, admitting that he got his “ass whupped” by Forrest. The judges scores were 48-46 twice and 49-46 for Griffin. Forrest used his handspeed to his advantage, as well as good leg kicks that hurt Jackson, but Forrest sometimes found himself in too close with Rampage, and was in danger of being caught by a Rampage Jackson combination full of uppercuts and hooks. With the win, Forrest Griffin improves to 16-4 and Quinton Jackson falls to 28-7.
