Should really be a good night of fights, and MFC is a quality promotion. Looking forward to it.
I’ve always liked MFC and seems like they are stepping up and bringing in more talent. Good for them, they put on great events and the commentators aren’t bad either.
Tune in to watch the up and coming exports from Canada
Or down and going guys that got cut from the UFC.
Nah I’m more interested in seeing people like GSP, Fitch, Story when they are young and blood thirsty Canadians are tough Mofo’s just ask Hitler
The oldies are just to have some big names on there for the star power draw.
I agree about the up and comers, and guys like Jimmo, etc. I was just pointing out that there are also a lot of former UFCers on the card, people that are still worth watching, just not good enough for the big show.
Also you got Jimmo and Kilkenny on there they are pretty good too.. all the young talent from the north.. at least J-Rods fights always end in mayhem.. usually before you get a chance to blink
im interested in the spratt-gunn fight. hopefully spratt has learned RNC defense.
Spratt won by KO.
Nickels v. Heath is a war, great fight.
Heath just lost his mouthpiece for the fourth time and lost a point.
I expected more out of Prater v. McKee, that fight was worse than the Eastman fight earlier. Prater looked terrible, glad it wasn’t a five rounder. McKee is a good fighter, but way too tentative. One of the announcers said that McKee has said that he knows he’s tentative and he is as such because the small paycheck at a small show is not worth putting himself at risk. I submit that if he would put himself at risk and try to finish fights, and actually become an exciting champion he could get a bigger paycheck in a bigger show.
MacDonald v. Lutter was an interesting fight. I have to score it 2 rounds to 1 for Lutter, but MacDonald did more in the 3rd round (which he won) alone than Lutter did the whole first two rounds combined. 10 point must system did this fight now justice. MacDonald didn’t really do enough to earn a 10-8 in the 3rd, but I would like to give it to him for doing more than Lutter did the other two.
Glad to see the rising MMA tide is seemingly floating all promotional boats, regardless of size…
