[crazedfan]

Well, just got back from UFC 73. There wasn't a super-awesome fight, but they were all solid. I'd say Nogueira/Herring was fight of the night, I thought in the first round it was going to be Gonzaga/Cro Cop II for a second, and Minotauro was still shaken for the last 30 seconds or so, but he ended up dominating the last two rounds. Herring was pretty much running away from him the last round and a half and had nothing left in the tank at all. Not all that strong a debut for Nogueira, but I can't wait until his next fight.

Sherk/Franca was the worst fight of the night. Typical Sherk match, it was a bit better in person than I would imagine on TV, there were some nice reversals from Franca, but Sherk completely dominated and overpowered Franca. Franca landed a knee strike in just about every round when Sherk shot in, but it didn't do a thing, and he had a couple guillotine chokes in also, but Sherk survived and just sat on top of Franca the whole fight. Crowd got bored and started booing.

Silva/Marquardt was good for while it lasted, Silva was so crisp and accurate with all his strikes, and when he had Marquardt on the ground, he just landed all his punches and the fight was over.

And finally... Tito/Rashad. Very disappointed that it ended in a draw, but we'll likely get a rematch which is good, because the fight wasn't all that great. The crowd was ridiculous during the fight though, the reaction towards both fighters, especially Tito though, was deafening. Ortiz was, if I may borrow a wrestling term, super over, and the crowd was rabid both for and against him.

None of the prelims were all that great, Edgar/Bocek was probably the best fight. Lytle scored a great submission for a win with almost like a reverse triangle sorta thing while getting his arm in a keylock or something at the same time. Saraiva/Gurgel was slow. Second round had some really good action, including a great slugfest, but the first and third were really slow and boring. And Bonnar/Nickels was a pretty standard affair.

They also put on Florian/Robinson as the very last fight, I would imagine just in case both title fights went the distance and they wouldn't have had enough time at the end of the PPV, so probably about a third of the crowd ended up leaving after the Silva/Marquardt fight. But it was a good fight, both men had some nice, crisp tosses and throws. Also, I don't know if it was changed, but the fight was announced at the end as a win by TKO for Florian, it looked like Robinson was about to tap from strikes, but got knocked out before he could and the ref ended the fight. Florian called out Sherk basically after his win, asking the crowd, "Who wants to see lightweights finish their fights?" and said he wants another shot at the title. I think Huerta's probably ahead of him though.

Post fight press conference, Sherk said Penn vs. Sherk for Lightweight title in November.

Ten shows in and things are beginning to even out, Biggz looks to have things under control with an impressive 35 point lead but that could easily be caught up on if Biggz has a bad show or even misses a show. Speaking of that, missing one show and a couple of poor predictions has seen me drop off of the pace. KCC has stormed through into fourth with his last three show results being the best out of everyone involved. JoeMimic is quickly catching up with the tail end of the regular predictors having had a number of solid results, Takayamanofear got a PB score of 100 at the TUF Finale show, so congrats there. EBG and Cole seem the most likely to catch up with Biggz as both have registered some big scores as of late, will they be able to continue their good form or is Biggz already heading for the number one spot overall?

Well August and September will give people plenty of catch up time... I think if I do well in at least 3 of those events that I could start to put a sizeable gap in between the field.

Once I start predicting main events right, I'm going to be on fire! I'm think of going for broke and picking more upsets, spice things up! Or possibly cool things down just as easy.
