Couture wins in UFC...Pacqiao wins WBO Title making it 7 Titles...Amazing...



Randy Couture once again begins new win streak by defeating Vera last night in what many calling a very close fight...He got the nod from all 3 judges in this 3 round bout by unanimous decision...It appears that he is being groomed once again to gompete for the Title at a later date...46 years old and kicking harder than the younger boys in the game...
Brock Lesnar is out indefinitely due to severe health issues, Dana White will be flying to Minnesota to have a clear understanding on how serious this is involving the current UFC Heavyweight Champ...Apparently Lesnar went to Canada to recover where he owns a lot of land and he collapsed, he was then rushed to the hospital where they did multiple blood tests and they discovered something more serious then they anticipated...Details were not released but White said he was in real bad shape...Really bad...They will be flying Lesnar perhaps to the Mayo Clinic here in the states to determine treatment possibilities....Rodrigo Noguiera has also been hospitilized with a severe staph infection taking him out of UFC 108......
In Pro-Boxing news Pacqiao won last night by scoring a 12 round TKO over Cotto to win his 7th Title in multiple weight divisions, this guy can not be stopped....

Tonight Couture vs Vera...Can Couture win at UFC 105???



Both fighters made weight for tonight's main event in England, both at 204 lb. the Natural appears to be poised to get this win coming down in weight and looking more fit then I have seen him in quite some time...I feel that there is no way he can lose to Vera in tonight's main event but hey this is MMA and you just never know what can happen...The following are is the card for tonight's event:1. Randy Couture(204) vs. Brandon Vera(204) 2. Dan Hardy(171) vs. Mike Swick(170) 3.Michael Bisping(186) vs. Denis Kang(185) 4.Matt Brown(170) vs. James Wilkes(169) 5.Ross Pearson(156) vs. Aaron Riley(155) Solid lineup for tonight's show......Hope these guys deliver...I'm sure they will...as far as attendance is concerned the gate will draw $2.14 million breaking a record....Good luck to all...

Fedor defeats Rogers in spectacular fashion...


Last night was a gift to all MMA fans watching CBS to see if all the hype was true, It was certainly that...A great night of fighting was presented by Strikeforce MMA from Top to Bottom but lets discuss the main event here...First and foremost the Top Dog without a Title yet and I do mean yet, Fedor Emelianenko was cut immediately with a quick jab by Rogers who came out to fight on this night and bolster a 10-0 record so far, big man with a greater reach then the russian bear, however after being cut and blood gushing from the bridge of his nose within seconds after the beginning of the first round and a barrage of punches after landing on his back it appeared the Fedor was not going to get past this, within seconds however he recovered his stance and basically dilevered a solid punch that left Rogers dazed, clearly the russian was not going down without a fight...Nothing but solid shots from both combatantants, this was a great MMA contest with nothing being held back from either one, however, when the second round began Fedor hit rogers with a solid straight punch to the jaw that sent the big man to the mat with a blow that appeared to have come all the way from Russia that connected BIG TIME....Rogers went down and Fedor followed with two more shots that left no alternative but to have the ref call it ...Fedor is one heck of a beast to handle in the cage to say the least, how I wish Dana White could have gotten this guy to sign with UFC so the fans would have the previlidge of seeing Lesnar vs. Fedor for the Heavyweight belt...That would be something really amazing to watch and certainly a real challenge for Lesnar at this point...Hey, Strikeforce vs. UFC, why not.....One can only hope....Great presentation of hard hitting MMA performances for this CBS special....Hats off to promoters, producers and especially the fighters...Excellent stuff for fight and Sports Entertainment fans, really looking forward to the next one with anticipation.....
