      That was seriously a good MMA show.

      You see Lawler fight? That look they had in their eyes when they were bombin on eachother, thats a ****in a fight. Like a serious fight. I love Boxing more than anything, but that was a real fist fight. That **** was brutal, neither of them backin down and just goin at it full throttle.

          if you liked that then you'll love the lawler/riley fight.


          video takes a few secs to load and isn't the best quality but still worth the watch. one of the top mma fights of all time.

              The curious folks here at my job who tuned in won't be tuning in to future broadcasts. I wonder what that total will be next time... I'm guessing half

                  Well chances are Kimbo won't be on the next card so it won't be as hyped and not as much people will watch it, the reason the show sold well was because of Kimbo

                    I think he should be on the card, just not the main event. The two main events on June 14 have potential - it would be nice to have that type of show - maybe even Lawler vs. Smith II on it and Kimbo can open the show against a tomato can.
