And...we are underway! Pierce-Robertson is up first. (And I intentionally did not mention F***book in the first post, could care less about it)
And it's over. Pierce TKOs Robertson 29 seconds into round 2.
stomach is in knots for this event. Let's get this hot bout out of the way pronto.
21 seconds. Pronto enough? Kingsbury wins by TKO.

No matter what, I miss the hot bout every time, twice I've had it as my only loss.
bahhhh
I knew I should've picked the wrestler....
Thought i'd stay up and watch live for a change

Having to use girlfriend's account to watch KID Vs Mighty Mouse though, hope it's worth it. I hate Facebook....
Thought Romero showed promise coming into this fight. Oh well....
11 minutes until the KID fight!
More like 20, and there's still one prelim ahead of it.

1-1 with 5 points. Why did I pick Romero again?

He was pretty impressive against petruzelli, and kingsbury has never been very impressive IMO. Still, I guess picking the wrestler against the submission artist is pretty much always the safe pick.

True that

.
WAR Paul Taylor! Finally got a finish. Over cake monster no less.
2-1, 10 pts
Apparently Taylor does not like cake. KO. Ruediger out at 1:42 of round 2. Could be KOTN.

That's my opinion too. The days of wrestlers with
zero sub defense are mostly gone, and too many jiu-jitsu guys can't get a wrestler to the ground without blackmailing him first.

Gareth Davies call this card "the Fight of the Century in Brazil." I'm not Brazilian, but I believe it.

441-day layoff for Forrest Griffin. No easy fights in the UFC, I guess.
I might believe it when it comes from the TATAME. And something from the upcoming UFC Brazil will almost certainly top it.

Some pretty sweet finishes already. Hope they make the broadcast.

Hasn't happened yet though.......
Anybody else dislike Franklin Mcneil ?
facebook stream just went live for anyone who wants to watch the kid fight.
''The two fastest fighters in the world'' ?
Oh man I need to stop changing fights at weigh ins. I am going to eat this switch from mighty mouse to kid
ah, I picked this one with my heart. Oh well, Johnson is ridiculously fast, pretty impressive.
This only seems to further confirm one thought I have: For whatever reason, no disprespect intended, Japanese fighters just can't seem to be successful fighting the "American" style of MMA. Whether it's UFC, Strikeforce or elsewhere, they just can't win in the US.
