Was expecting another ‘Valentine’s Eve Massacre’ type of show but the production was very well done(except the intermission).The chicks are usually fun to watch but Achhal pulled a Guida for the first 2 rounds.No UFC calibre fighters but I could see Easton being given a shot at WEC.
Disappointed about Britt, but maybe this Patterson guy has a chance at the big time. I’m also disappointed about Robbins, but its good that he took the fight that long on such short notice.
I think it’s cool that all those big name people were there like Reali, and the Capitals players. Hughes and Lawler are a bit of a surprise, but then maybe not considering a guy that trains under them at H.I.T. Squad was going for a belt. Sadollah being there is not much of a surprise to me, since that’s where he lives.
Sarcasm?
Patterson is pretty good fighter already, he has beaten some good fighter including Britt, he is a “vet” of IFL and his only losses are the Vlad “The Janitor” and actually Reese Andy but he has beaten some good comp including Horwich 2x
I knew Patterson was decent, but I didn’t know that much about him. When I say a chance at the big time, I don’t include IFL as “big time” I mean UFC/Strikeforce/DREAM/Aff…nevermind.
Aff….nevermind hahahahaha too funny, well he has only had like 7 or 8 pro fights I think but he is really strong and quick, I just think he is a pretty decent fighter… I don’t see him in the UFC anytime soon but weirder things have happend before… IFL was interesting to say the least.. I enjoyed it basically because I enjoy MMA but I guess when u don’t make a profit your business goes under
