Please make plans to join us tonight for the WEC 48: Aldo vs. Faber PPV that will air at 10pm ET.  However, please remember that two preliminary fights will air on Spike TV at 9pm ET prior to the PPV broadcast.  As always, NO SPOILERS as some of the other prelim fights may make the live broadcast.  It's going to be a great night of fights, so make sure you come here and make us your home for the WEC's first PPV event.  I have to work all day today unfortunately, so I'll see you guys tonight at some point...See you then.

I’ll be getting sauced at my buddy’s place while watching the fights. Should be an excellent event, enjoy the show fellas.

I can't believe they are doing this to Faber in his own town.

Those words from Regulate are going to be going through his head while getting worked by Aldo.

I have to say, WEC/UFC incidental music is much better than Strikeforce’s. I was amused to hear Cypress Hill in the background. Insane in the Membrane makes me wonder if the Diaz boys had just walked to ringside or something lol

I should’ve kept track of “you know what I’m saying” from the beginning. Not to hate, but it was starting to become distracting. That said, I’ll enjoy Kimbo cleaning Matt’s clock.

Hearing ultimate karaoke song “Don’t Stop Believin’” in the background got a big laugh out of me. It makes me wish that it was the theme music of The Korean Zombie!

by Blair Russell on Apr 24, 2010 9:33 PM EDT reply actions  

Damn – if that little Japanese guy knew how to throw a punch he would have KO’d Garcia.

You know, I think that KIMBO has better MMA cardio-and IQ too-than this Garcia fool.

by Blair Russell on Apr 24, 2010 9:41 PM EDT up reply actions  

Hey now, he’s The KOREAN Zombie. You don’t want anyone to get any wrong ideas about you and stereotyping… but to be perfectly honest, I think that Neil Wager would have better MMA punching technique if he went in there tonight to fight someone, with no training.

This fight isn’t technically great, but I don’t care. It’s a blast to watch, and this is exactly why it was booked and put on TV. They couldn’t have asked for anything better to possibly entice last-minute orders. I have no idea who will win it, though.

Yeah, that was a nice submission win. In fact, the first two fights have been fun, but of course they don’t compare to Garcia vs. The Korean Zombie. I’ve been busy watching the show and doing other things online, so finding something to comment about here hasn’t been in the front of my mind.

Oh, I take it that you’ve seen none of the matches tonight, including the ones on Spike TV. That’s a huge shame. All of the bouts seen on Spike or on PPV have been at least a lot of fun, but you NEED to see Garcia vs. The Korean Zombie. No kidding, it’s like our decade’s version of Frye vs. Takayama, and Rogan/Goldberg both called it “the fight of the decade”.

Oh, you’re welcome, Kelvin. Getting rid of that info is probably a good idea, as I know that on certain forums I look/post at, talking about “that stuff” is reason to get kicked off the board for good, and who knows who from UFC may be looking at this site… and we all know how they feel about the topic.

But anyway… the past two hours of this show on TV have been pretty incredible. This more than makes up for a horrid Strikeforce and fine turning to feces UFC show, both from earlier in the month.

Haha. Also, I hear that he used to date that Brittany lady who is a ringgirl tonight. Nothing is appealing about him… except that he is at least entertaining to watch, technical skill or not.

If this sniffs the quality of their previous meeting… this will be THE MMA show of the year, I declare, as I don’t know how it could possibly be beat.

I agree, but there’s so much time to fill… getting to see Mendez’s fight again is something I won’t complain about.

In any case, it looks probable that Korean Zombie vs. Garcia will be shown on the PPV, and if you didn’t see it on Spike, then you must not stop watching the pay per view until you watch it.

I have to laugh at the show comment for a recent Lights Out Radio, when Bishop stated that Neil is so white, he didn’t recognize any rap songs… not even California Love. That makes me laugh, as how could Neil not recognize Faber’s entrance music?

I really hope Faber can hang on and make it last longer than the 1st round. I hate it when all this anticipation builds up for a fight then it only last 30 seconds.

Well, Urijah is continuing to get his ass handed to him… but it’s in the 5th round and he hasn’t given up yet.

It was a ground battle the last part of the last round, and Aldo had him in the crucifix, and it was almost over there.
