I'm not a big fan of KOTC, there smaller cages make for slower fights. Okay looking card though. I'd like to see Joe Stevenson move too the UFC. I'm not really interested in seeing Severn fight, and isnt Shad Smith that guy who got worked by Ludwig?

[Curly Howard]

Yeah he's the "street fighter" that Ludwig used as a Muay Thai bag

So Valencia has surgery and has to retire his belt? WTF?

Can't wait to see Aram back. He looked like **** against Strasser.

[Curly Howard]

and his KO loss to that redneck

i saw Valencia last week at class. he is just working with the guys for now, helping Rivas' game against Gamboa. i personally think Gamboa is gonna win this one, but who knows. I see both of em train, and am just calling what I see. Valencia and Gamboa would've been a better fight, and is seriously a match that I could not try to predict, but oh well... its not gonna happen.

Valencia is out for a while from the fight game... prolly till the end of this year sometime. he does'nt really care about the KOTC title, as he is going to start fighting in Japan when he makes his return. from what i understand, KOTC is'nt giving him the exposure he needs, and has had lots of problems as of late.
