LOL! I didn't notice that during the fight... That's hilarious!
The Velaquez fight last night was fun to watch. Both guys came out swinging for the fences. Those knees and leg kicks Velaquez was throwing were brutal.
I was very impressed with Lauzon. I know he is good, but that cut he had was pretty nasty and I think he knew that if it went to another round, it could get stopped. He needed to find a way to end it, and quickly. And he did. That kid is incredible on the ground.
It's funny how the free Fight Night card had every main card fight end with a sub or KO and how the $45 PPV last weekend had every fight except two go to the judges.
Funny how that works, however I did enjoy the Machida & GSP fights on the PPV card.
The fight night was very good. All my picks won. Johnson will start moving up the WW ladder now, and I think he will start getting higher profile fights. He should be 8-1 if it weren't for the eye gouging controversy. Cain V. is a beast, but he still needs a few lower tiered fights under his belt.
UFC has to workout something with AKA, they have Kos, Fitch, Swick & Rumble (who trains with Cung who works with AKA). can't have that many top WW in one camp in the same org.
Rumble vs. Swick would be a logical next fight, and would be a damn good fight at that. Outside of Swick, i wouldn't mind seeing Rumble fight Marcus Davis or Dustin Hazelett (to test Rumbles ground game, if it got to the ground)

Frank Shamrock vs. Nick Diaz set for April 11th
Frank Shamrock will fight Nick Diaz at Strikeforce’s April 11 event on Showtime.
The bout, which Strikeforce and Showtime announced Tuesday, will be contested at a catch-weight of 179 pounds.
The outspoken Shamrock is coming off a loss to Cung Le in a March 2008 Strikeforce event. His arm was broken by Le’s kicks in the entertaining 15-minute match. Before that defeat, Shamrock choked out Phil Baroni in a June 2007 Strikeforce main event.
Diaz, who is perhaps even more outspoken than Shamrock, has won three straight. Most recently he stopped Thomas Denny in a July 2008 EliteXC bout.
Check back shortly for more news on Strikeforce’s April 11 show.
