I only saw the fight on youtube because my DVR fucked up grrr... but from what I read on the boards the ref asked if he was alright in the semi-guillotine and Kimbo said he was and gave a thumbs up. That's the general concensus after the fact anyway.

This was bullshit, all the way to the end, where Gary Shaw, the promoter at the post fight tells everyone James Thompson is having trouble breathing and got rushed to the hospital.

Then Thomson walks in.

Oh god, that was an embarrasing moment.

I was extremely disappointed with the whole thing. The first thing they showed were a bunch of hookers dancing and flipping their hair around. Then rappers grabbing their crotches, pyrotechnics, smoke every where, sequined costumes, people looking like idiots, etc. I thought it played into every bad stereotype that MMA is trying to disprove. It honestly made me feel sick to my stomach.

One of the best examples of MMA was on tonight, with WEC's 145lb Championship fight between Uriah Faber and Jens Pulver.

That was MMA.

EliteXc was not.

Pretty good article on the suckiness of EliteXc.

He has yet to win the fight. All of his wins were and remain questionable. Nocredible win as of yet.

True, the Bo Cantrell fight was the worst one IMO, fuck looking at that fight I would have taken him out my self lol

I watched it. I love both of them. They've been showing reruns of Uriah Faber's fights on Wreckage for the last couple of weeks. He's amazing. I'm also into Carlos Condit. Love him, too. I have Spike, Versus, and HDNet recording constantly. :1orglaugh

I saw that little Jared Shaw pecker on Inside MMA Friday. I had a feeling they were going to fuck up such a golden opportunity. He came off like a total weasel.

Very true. In this yesterday?s fight, Kimbo was defeated in the second. But ref wouldn?t stop the fight; instead he ended it when Colossus had little blood oozing out of his ear ? nice excuse to make Kimbo a winner. Why are all the refs so blatant about making him win at any cost?

It was a great fight, fought with a lot of class. Torres and Maeda for the bantamweight belt was a pretty exciting fight too. A shame Maeda's eye swelled up so bad the fight couldn't go on, but the 3 rounds we did get was a fucking battle hard fought. i love the lightweight guys, they come out swinging!

Zing!! They had it bang on with that one. I have to agree with him, that even as a rookie MMA fighter, Brock Lesner would likely take Kimbo out.

Yea, awesome tempo for sure. My favorites are light heavyweights though I gotta say :)

Kimbo is a hard ass!

It was boring , 30 minutes of hype for a crappy 1.30 minute fight, give me a break...

even back when i was watching a lot of boxing before getting into mma a few years back, i always prefered lightweight bouts. i've never been a huge fan of the heavyweights hugging eachother and waiting for that one knockout punch. I like to see a guy who comes out swinging and fights his whole way through the fight. Torrres did not stop fighting for one moment. Even in defensive position he was still wroking an attack. It was a great pace. I thought it was a little more exciting to watch than pulver and faber and wish it would have gone another couple rounds.

Pulver and Faber was great battle too though. I really wasn't sure what was going to happen, and was just waiting for one of them to throw a knockout punch. I was rooting for pulver, but Faber really did win the fight. he's a great fighter.

kimbo rocks!

When I really like light heavyweight is when they really go at it, too bad they usually don't last were long like that.

Kimbo was great on Youtube. But as a MMA fighter he is an insult to the sport

That fight was fixed. Did anyone even notice the camera work when Kimbo was in the guillotine? Camera angle 1 - close shot - guillotine was locked and kimbo was in trouble. Camera angel 2 - pull back shot of crowd, Kimbo "slips" out back to close up shot. CBS took some notes from the WWE on fakery for that fight.

Faber VS Pulver - 'nuff said.
