[Death In June]

That was a difficult main event to watch. I started to feel a little gross watching shots land on Tony that would have killed most people. I didnt expect to feel that way. Maybe it was the lack of crowd, but it really affected me in a not so positive way.

These cards with no crowds are weird.. But I am getting used to it..

Figured it would be a lot like TUF fights. Breathing, coaching, trash talk, striking , etc. much more audible. Funny seeing the corners whispering between rounds and commentators like DC having to lower their volume so the fighters can't hear them. Still funny Hardy didn't start checking kicks until he heard DC.
