well this is televised... this is a main card fight right now (stack/palacios). So strikeforce decided to hold some fights on the main card with 3 min rounds. A mistake if ya ask me. Oh and WAR STACK!!!

the main card starts off at 10:30.
this card will be televised by HDnet, so i couldnt tell you 100% if it will be shown on TVU (since i dont know if they'll be able to get the signal for HDnet)
mma tv have an hdnet feed so yes hdnet events will be on tvu though as mma tv has been having some pc trouble lately its likely that the event will occasionally drop out so it may appear at times like its not on, like i keep telling people on here but no one listens people should just watch the premium stream, its much more stable and better quality.

I knew they had three minute rounds on some fights but wasn't sure of how a fight was classified as 3 of 5 min rnds so i just picked the ones i thought would be 3 mins accordingly, i thought the girl fight would be 3 min rounds but its main card so looks like its going to be five, oh well elaina has just as little chance of a ko as jose, seriously though the playground needs to add this info on the picks page to avoid confusion!!!

Actualy this isnt a main card bout, they are just teleivising some of the prelims, they had three in the hour lead up to the tv broadcast, the main card fights as far as i know should be:
lawson-gillespie (one of the 4 fights mmaplayground missed cos they are slow as hell)
daniels-metcalf
beef-tate
evangelista-phan
ruiz-southworth
punk-melendez

lol daniels metcalf is a 3 3 minuter now, not that its likely to go out of the first but still mmaplyground clearly need round length info on the picks page!

ok at least i got the sub
same, except i had him for 1st round sub, sucks that it was 3 minutes round, Metcalf probably would have got it in the first if he had those 2 extra minutes.

Agreed but it would of been a tko instead of a sub the way metcalf was going so either way 7pts was as good as we were ever gunna do on that one.

Both fighters should be ashamed of themselves... LHW fights should never be THIS slow! I am almost expecting one of them to fall asleep in the 5th.

Cant agree with that clinch fighting pressing up against the fence is very tiring, i think both guys put on a great effort even if it wasnt the most exciting fight.

If the interviewer told Bobby that the fight sucked, Bobby should probaly consider that a compliment...this fight was horrid
