    League Average of 177.75 ... Not too shabby!

    Huerta v. Florian would be a great match! I think Florian has a lot of confidence right now, but I think I would still go with Huerta. It would be close though and Florian will be a test for Huerta.

    yup leafs, I'm coming up from TN. :) I couldn't miss GSP beating Serra in Montreal and I get to meet Ceg, mookie and now you. It's only slightly insane. ;)

    To clarify and not disappoint your buddies, I used to be a cheerleader in college. But with enough drinks in me, I tend to revert so I'm giving you all fair warning..

    yeah everyone tells me I'm insane for coming up! But the flight's already booked so I gotta follow through on it.

    lol, well don't worry, i'm drinking till i can't feel feelings that weekend, so i'm not going to be the sharpest knife in the drawer either. i guess that's my fair warning aswell lol.

    No it's awsome that you are coming up, it's looking like a great card and you get to meet some new friends, so it should be a great weekend.

    just read this on mmanews.com, i wish Joe could make it, but i guess kenny is capable of the job

    The following is an excerpt from an article on MMAWeekly.com:

    When the Ultimate Fighting Championship debuts in Montreal, Quebec, Canada on April 19, lightweight contender Kenny Florian will be a part of the show, but not as a fighter for this particular event. He will instead join lead commentator Mike Goldberg in the broadcast booth and serve as color man for the pay-per-view.

    “I’ll be commentating actually, start to finish, my first, my debut as the co-commentator,” said Florian on MMAWeekly Radio Friday night. “I’ll be there with Goldie. Goldie will be leading the way; he’ll be the quarterback. I’ll be the kind of back up.”

    Florian, who helped with the play-by-play of the main event fight between Roger Huerta and Clay Guida last December, will assume the duties of color commentator because regular color man, Joe Rogan, had previous obligations and will be unable to attend.

  • kenny did a decent job doing commentary for the huerta vs guida match. at least he won't have rogan AND goldberg there asking his opinion of what he would do and "agree or disagree?" over and over...:D

    it would have been nice to hear joe's thoughts on the crowd and montreal, though.

    Out of curiosity I looked to see if UFC 83 tix were on Ebay. And wow :eek: are they expensive! Some of the 100 level seats are listed for close to $4000. Even the 300 level seats are going for $250 each.

    So thanks again to Ceg for getting us awesome seats at a good price. You rock!

  • bit of bad news for gray :(


    Gray Maynard broken hand, out 4 to 6 weeks
    MMAmania.com


    Gray Maynard is on the shelf for four to six weeks because of a broken hand sustained during his lightweight bout against Frank Edgar at UFC Fight Night 13 at the Broomfield Event Center in Broomfield, Colo., on April 2.

    “The Bully” used a distinct size advantage to dominate the undefeated New Jersey native en route to an impressive unanimous decision win.

    It’s an achievement that raised the stock significantly for the former contestant on The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 5 in the deep 155-pound class. In fact, it’s possible that he will next lock horns with Nate Diaz sometime in 2008.

    Diaz submitted Maynard in the semifinals of the 16-man tournament, going on to claim the championship with a technical knockout win over Manny Gamburyan in the finals. Both fighters have shined since their stints in the mixed martial arts reality series.

    Let’s hope Gray gets well soon and we see the rematch. If not, Tyson Griffin has been discussed as possible next opponent for Diaz.

    Either way … win-win. Both are solid match ups.
