[LEONARD]

Damn I wish this was on HDNET!!

[Evan]

Damn I wish this was on HDNET!!

Wonder why its not...

[LEONARD]

So there are 7 tourny fights...I wonder who they might add for the 2nd rd? Gomi?

[Evan]

Gomi?

that would be nice.

I read some quotes somewhere this week where the dude manned up and said he isn't ready to face BJ Penn and wants to work on his game some more.

Gomi went up in my book for admitting that and stating it's a challange he wants to face eventually.

[LEONARD]

Yea, I saw that...he also said he doesn't want to fight on NYE this year because he wants to come watch the UFC event...

AND he weighed in at 154 for his last fight...so much for the "can't make 155" talk...and "Pride made LW's 160 for Gomi" bs...

[oligarchy]

[LEONARD]

live and even after the 1st replay I thought it was on the back/shoulder, but he did get him right in the side of the neck...

What a shame!!

Maybe they'll just move both thru to the 2nd rd...fills the vacant slot and lets them rematch...

[dallaskd]

this sucks...first jz pulls out...now a NC...hopefully we can see them fight again in m-1 or maybe they can slip them into the 2nd round. i still got the money on jz though.

Good to see Hellboy get a W. I wish he had ended up in the UFC but now it's obvious he would have been shredded pretty fast.

Still...WEC would have been great...

[oligarchy]

Wasn't overly impressed with the event. It didn't have that old Pride spark.

[dallaskd]

Wasn't overly impressed with the event. It didn't have that old Pride spark.

I thought the New Years card had more of the Pride feel.

[LEONARD]

It's just different without stomps and soccer kicks for me...not because I enjoy stomps and soccer kicks, but I like the impact they have on a fight. They add some serious motivation for a guy that's on the ground to do something...

But that could've been a badass event, but there fights just didn't deliver. A couple were good, but that's it. The NC for JZ and Aoki really sucked ass too...

[Evan]

I thought the New Years card had more of the Pride feel.

I agree with that.

[oligarchy]

Yeah, the NYE card had more of the feel, but it was a joke. HMC!?!

[Evan]

And don't forget HMC wasn't even allowed to use knees. They had to handicap that slow moving freak show.

(Not bagging on Fedor...just his managers)

[dallaskd]

Well with Cro Cop signing with dream maybe m-1 and dream can do another co-promotion and have CC-Fedor II

[Evan]

That's an interesting thing because I have a question…

Was Cro Cop released from his contract or is he simply being allowed to fight for DREAM while he gets it together?

I know everyone says released but has everyone who wrote about seen the contract? I have a feeling the UFC can yank him back whenever they want. I don't think they would ever allow that fight to take place.
