anybody watching this?
First 2 fights have been brilliant, Griffin v Guida was fantastic stuff. 15 minutes of non stop action.
Macdonald/Singer fight is just about to start.

Good to see Forrest back in the Octagon, a good professional performance from him, His leg kicks were brutal.
Franklin/Okami should be up next, I'm really looking forward to this one, I think it will be a really close fight but i've got a feeling that Okami will take it with a Ground and Pound victory.
Hopefully i'm wrong though and Franklin can get the victory.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Franklin V okami was a really poor fight for the first 2 rounds but burst into life in the final round.
With about 3 minutes left Okami managed to get Franklin on the floor and mounted and towards the end of the round got him in a arm bar and was so close to getting a submission win, How Franklin didn't tap i don't know. I had to turn away from the screen because i really thought Okami was going to break his arm.
Franklin won 29-28 on all 3 judges scorecards though and picked up a good win.
Overall a very entertaining UFC, The first 2 fights were the most entertaining though.

Ultimate Fighter Championship. Never watched an episode, yet I love it. I personally think i'll be very good at it. Does anybody know where is the best place to give it a go?

So I take it Forrest won? Yes. Franklin/Okami was very anti-climatic. |

Okami could have won that fight. He was just too passive in the first and second round. He used this same strategy when he fought Shields, and lost the exact same way. Hopefully he'll rebound and come back with a new gameplan next time.
And Guida/Griffin was a war. Definitely a FOTY candidate.

The Guida/Griffin match was one of the best fights I've seen in a really long time. Should've been a draw in my eyes, no losers in that match. Forrest coming out to "Shipping Up to Boston" was  ing awesome, too. That's probably the best entrance music of all time. |
