Werd!

I'll be watching the UFC live....but will record Affliction. I just want to see Fedor and Silvia.....otherwise I wouldn't bother.

I'd rather pay to watch the UFC over affliction though.....so I wish affliction was the free event tonigh.

Set up 2 TV's in the living room and watch both! You have the best of both worlds then!

Good UFC card for a free fight. Beer and UFC makes me happy.

If Silva has to lose....I hope it's not against Irving. I'd much rather see hime lose to someone like Forest.

Hopefully Silva will put a hurt'n on him.


Good UFC card for a free fight
Affliction has a pretty good card for a 1st event...


Main Card:

Fedor Emelianenko vs. Tim Sylvia @ HW
Josh Barnett vs. Pedro Rizzo @ HW
Matt Lindland vs. Fabio Negao @ MW
Ben Rothwell vs. Andrei Arlovski @ HW
Renato “Babalu” Sobral vs. Mike Whitehead @ LHW
Mike Pyle vs. J.J. Ambrose @ WW
Gary Goodridge** vs. Paul Buentello @ HW
Antonio Rogerio Nogueira vs. Edwin Dewees @ LHW

Undercard (FoxSportsNet):

Vitor Belfort vs. Terry Martin @ MW
Justin Levens vs. Ray Lazama @ MW
Mark Hominick vs. Savant Young @ FW


Apparently Aleksander Emelianenko was supposed to fight too (against Buentello)...but was removed from the card. There are rumors of hepatitus B....and him being unfit to fight.

Talk about a head kick from hell. Undercard fights FTW. That dude is gonna be sore for a while.

Now I get to watch Affliction. From what I saw flipping back and fourth I wasn't too impressed. It was very "boxing" like. The best part was Megadeath doing the intro.

Megadeath's last album was awesome....

Kurt Angle as an announcer/interviewer FTL.

Big John is a commentator too.

So I hear Fedor won...how?

Lash

That wasn't Kurt Angle...lol. It was Frank Trigg.


But anyways....Time Warner sent out a reboot about 5 minutes ago when I was in the middle of watching the babalu fight and guess what....
Affliction is no longer in my DVR. Needless to say I'll be getting my money back. Off to the phone I go. I really wish AT&T serviced this area. TW and DTV are the devil.

From SHERDOG.com
Round 1 - The atmosphere is absolutely electric, as almost every fan in the building is on their feet. Emcee Michael Buffer whips the alreeady excited crowd into a frenzy. Neither fighter makes eye contact during the pre-fight routine. The opening bell sounds, the fighters touch gloves, and we are underway. Sylvia immediately stalks Emelianenko and throws a punch. Emelianenko evades, and a barrage of counters follow that drop Sylvia. Emelianenko pounces, immediately moves to Sylvia's back, locks in the rear naked choke, and the fight is over. Fedor Emelianenko def. Tim Sylvia via submission (rear naked choke) -- Round 1, 0:36.

Yeah....from the last 5 minutes of the event that was left on my DVR....it sounds like he got destroyed.


Maybe Tim will quit now.


Needless to say.....that was the easiest $39.99 credited back to my account ever!!! lol


It seems like they are trying to pick up where Pride left off. It felt like you were watching Pride....minus the crazy screaming announcer.

Fedor is amazing. I've even hear of him hunting bears with a knife :stare :alcoholic.

They'd probably end up killing each other.

whoever thought that Anderson would have lost that fight was on crack. I cant believe someone actually thought to pair up Tim with Fedor....what a joke. Too bad he wont man up and take a real fight lately.

Fast SVT

Fedor is a great fighter....funny all the affliction/ufc rivalry, especially since most of the affliction fighters are just ufc fighters who lost their last fight or got pissed at dana.

watch the fights here: http://www.mmashare.com/

It would be nice to have a unified sport so there were no questions regarding who is the best fighter.

There was talk at the end about him and Randy in the future.

I don't think it's that they thought he'd lose.....but that Irving would have landed at least one punch and the fight to go more than 1 minute...lol.
