If u would like the prelim thoughts of me being here live go to the weigh in thread…. Unless Kris or Justin would transfer my comments here……
The crowd is packed in here I have my private booth and well the main card is coming forth ten minutes from now cheers too all
I envy you fr. brown wins by tko in the 2nd. faber will get desperate and get caught again. enjoy the fights fr.
Jens choked out like he did to cub kinda sad really, the crowd was with him and its too much, his actions means he is dunn shall he retire? Probably!!!
If you don’t love Jens you might not love MMA that was awesome speech
They showed Brian Bowles, and I finally figured it out. He looks like Mark Wahlberg in Boogie Nights. Thank you. I’ll be here all night.
Cowboy via being the man
Banuelos loses three points for a dumb-looking fu manchu.
just 3?
Banuelos/Jorgensen was probably the fight of the night. Absolutet war. Banuelos at the end has a vagina formed on the lid/brow of his left eye.
My boy called flying knee I called Aldo we are good, it was a nice 30 seconds forsure next title shot should be Aldo imo
agreed
Swanson…go to bed… KO of the night…
Faber loses ten points for having the hairstyle of a drunk freshman girl on spring break in the Caribbean.
Standing ovationion for Urijah Faber nice and mad boo’s for Brown
this is how championship bouts are supposed to go! great first!
Round 1 10-9 Brown
Round 2 10-9 Brown
Florian thinks Faber broke his right hand.
Brown v Faber a draw after two rounds imo kids
Picked up sound from Faber’s round where he says it’s broken.
Faber”s right hand is broke not a good sign for the former champ
looking like both maybe. he’s completely abandoned his fists but I’m just watching on tv
Looks like Brown VS Aldo and Faber VS Grispi later this year. The only way WEC could go PPV was Faber-Brown 3, so I’m glad WEC is still going to be free. Sucks for Faber.
Mike Brown won imo
Looking at that hand, I think Faber has fought for the last time in 2009.
no doubt, i think one is broken and the other may have a torn ligament. he switched to all elbows and open hand shots.
Once again, my personal, highly unprofessional medical opinion is that index and middle metacarpal bones are broken.
To think that the fight was that even on the feet even with Faber’s broken hand is crazy. Aldo’s next up and poses some serious threats to brown.
brown-aldo will be a ground battle, I think aldo takes it by sub only if brown doesnt land that right hand.
faber earned mad respect by still pressing the action and not punking out after breaking his hand and not complaining in the post fight interview.
Cerrone is a beast, that kid looked great in my opinion, and aldo’s knee was beautiful. I think cub is still asleep. that was brutal. overall this was a damn good card that puts some ufc cards to shame.
Faber wins that fight by TKO without the hand injury. What a warrior lasting all 5 rounds with 2 hurt hands. Faber vs. Brown 3 if it ever happens should be a good one
Donald Cerrone needs to change his nickname from Cowboy to Rice. Donald “Rice” Cerrone.
I’ll never be able to think of him with out saying that now, thanks.
faber is on another level from brown
without the damaged hands brown is toast.
