just happened upon the result from the first match, while checking to see what time the pre-lims got underway...so pre-lims are underway! i'm staying away from the spoilers now, though, in hopes of a pre-lim or too...not to be greedy.

aaaahhhhh! :eek: An episode of releashed too! Thanks for the heads up mookie. I am waiting to crack open my bottle of wine until Fight Night starts but here's to a great (and long) night of UFC tonight! Cheers!

slainte!
my guide says garcia vs. huerta again, and aurelio vs. guida. i think they've only shown that one once or twice before.
anyway, nice warm up for the show.
i'm relieved to say i already have more points than i had for the entire 82 show and it's still in the pre-lims. i didn't see the winners, but either i got bonuses, or i'm close on the picks so far. it's like it's the end of the first round and i'm starting to get my momentum!
now on to stay at the same point level for the rest of the show...:(
definitely the right call. houston was disoriented last time against thiago silva after getting flash ko'd and complained as well, but he was clearly out. the first punch pretty much did the job. good stoppage. incredibly fast ko!

yes... he seemed like a bit of a sore loser... "wanna take this outside?" :rolleyes:
~~*~~ ...i surfaced and all of my being was enlightend... ~~*~~
yeah, that was pretty close to a stoppage. kurt had that slick taedown right away and kept the pressure on the whole time. nate didn't have many options other than the attempts at the kimura escape and he didn't even get close. kurt landed some huge punches while posturing up and then in the flurries you mentioned.
nate's still in the fight at the end of the first, be he's seeing a higher level of competition now...
in the fight? i guess so!! what a comeback for nate. that was a great match! kurt seemingly dominant, then nate gets the triangle and it's over!
to submit kurt is very impressive. i am shocked, not so much that nate won, but that he was actually able to sumit kurt, especially after that first round and the way the second was going.

i guess it's a four way race...
but i've got both TV's on... upstairs and down, so i can watch and listen as i run around the house doing dishes and laundry and making dinner...
let's get it on!!!!
indeed!
starting off with the one-rounder...alexander vs. irvin. don't blink!
frantic!
here we go!
as rogan would say...
"james irvin shows what's up!!!"
wow!
I think it was a good call to stop that fight.
sweet zombie jesus, you weren't kidding!! :eek: :eek:
i'm not messin' tonight, ceg!
...i think i just heard "8 seconds"!!!
diaz vs. pellegrino next! this should be outstanding.
yes... he seemed like a bit of a sore loser... "wanna take this outside?" :rolleyes:
no need for that...again, a "roganism"...
me too... i closed me eyes for sec and assumed it was over!
lol.... did they change the 10 second warning to a cow bell???? LOL!
ps. GO NATE!!
