Those two fights are badass.

There must be something very wrong with Hansen, he keeps having to pull out of fights. Aoki vs. Shaolin suits me just fine though.

I'd like to see Filho pull that talking to an imaginary friend **** against Manhoef.

The Semis of the WW tournament don't do a whole lot for me, but the final should be good. The semi-final fights could be good as well, but I think Mach and Galvao are heavy favourites.

I wonder if Mayhem and Jacare would be ready to fight again in two months. That was a nasty cut on Jacare's head, so I'm not sure.

Aoki vs. Riberio will be sick sick sick.

Jesse "JT Money" Taylor claims to be fighting Dong-Sik Yoon on this card, which is now just around the corner.

Tarec Saffiedine vs. Ikemoto Seich is going to be the WW GP reserve bout.

Well I haven't seen any of the fights yet but I heard it was a very good card. Zaromskis is like a mini cro cop. Finished both of his fights with head kicks to win the WW Grand Prix. And it's not like he was fighting cans either.

Saw a replay of this the other day on HDNET and man were there some great fights.

Melvin pummeled Filho early but then just got caught in an armbar. Props to Filho for withstanding that onslaught.

Also, that Marius Zaromskis has some deadly kicks as both High and Sakurai found out. Interesting to see where he goes from here.

Good event.

Was very disappointed that Aoki vs. Shaolin turned into a "stand up war." I was looking forward to some high level grappling.

What do you guys think of the play by play guy, Michael Schiavello?

Personally, I can't stand him, but I know some other people think he's one of the best.

I thought Schiavello was awesome. The accent takes a bit of time to get use to, but he's entertaining and doesn't go off his bounds when doing the pbp.

I like him too. I think he is funny and pretty knowledgeable. You have to respect anyone who can make both a stripper and a porn star reference on the same MMA broadcast.
