Karo vs Yoshida is no longer on this card as Karo pulled out with a back injury. I would have picked Yoshida.

I hope Hammill wins.

Liddell and Rashad I hope to be a good fight. Liddell has been up and down recently, but he did score a huge win against Axe Murderer. I think he takes this one by decision.

Preliminary Card
Welterweight Bout: Matt Brown vs. Dong Hyun Kim

Fuck yes Stun Gun. This shit had better be on TV, that dude is awesome. He will knee you in the head 30 times, and then do it the 31st time just in case you forgot about the first 30. He rules.

In other news...

My friend is down in Atlanta for huge Marine Aquarium Conference (MACNA). I was planning on going myself but nixed the trip a month ago. Had I know UFC PPV was going to be there I would have said fuck it, and gone down anyways.

The fucking hotel he is @ (which is also where I was staying) is where all of the UFC Fighters are staying. He called me at like 11:45pm last night to tell me Dana White, Lidell, some big black dudes, and who he thought was Kenny Florian went sprinting passed him to get into an elevator.

He's going to look around at the big clubs in the area to see who he spots lol.

[Remyo]

I totally forgot about this one. Had shogun been on the card I would be in atlanta about now.

Going to have to go with Rashad on this one. I think Jackson really messed Iceman's mind up and let's be honest, both him and Wanderlei were on a losing streak so his last win wasn't that impressive in my opinion. I pretty much agree with the rest of Remyo's lay-out.

And yeah;
Welterweight Bout: Matt Brown vs. Dong Hyun Kim; This guy is freaking ridiculous.

[archibaldcrane]

Fuck yes, Dong Hyun Kim (a.k.a. Stun Gun)'s fight is moved up to the main card - "may not be televised" is no longer listed on the UFC site: http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=even...tCard&eid=1461

Can't wait.

[Fhqwghads]

Chuck
Dan
Rich (have to go with Rich just because he trains in the same gym I do, and he's a nice guy IRL)

[Xno Kappa]

I remember I met Tito once in Long Beach, that dudes a prick lol.

[Chips]

Chuck, Rich, Henderson, Marquardt, Kim

[Saitoe]

is that matt brown from the ultimate fighter series? i'm gunna have to vote in his favor, just because i think hes a cool guy. but i have my money on evans because i think hes a superior fighter to chuck.

Chuck just has knock out strength and loltakedown defence.

[Krandor]

Franklin just destroyed Hamill with a kick to the liver, dropped him straight to the canvas.

[Mugmug]

I was looking forward to ordering this, but had some stuff come up

If anyone knows a good site, let me know.

[Krandor]

It's going on right now.

[Epical]

Wow, the Franklin and Evans wins surprised me. I was too unsure to bet anything with my usual UFC betting buddies this card, and thank God I didn't lol.

Glad Jay Mac won though... yay for hometown fighters!

FUCK YOU EVANS FUCK

[Blarg]

Rich impressed me, not too sure why Hamill didn't try more wrestling earlier in the first before his legs got kicked a ton.

I was really surprised by Rashads KO, that was just the perfect punch hitting the perfect spot.

[Epical]

Kinda like the Rampage one?

Anyone have a gif?

Anyone have a gif?

Rampage's looked like much more of a glancing blow than this one, if I find a gif I'll post it here or post a link.

[Krandor]

I'm trying to see if there's any pics up but sherdog seems down and none of the other sites have a pic up.

It was a devastating shot, Liddell was out instantly.
