You know, I didn't hold these fights in very high regard when they were announced
But when a promotion can’t even get their championship “contenders” on weight, then I go from disinterested to just plain insulted.
You know what's really fun? Not being a raving lunatic. Give it a try some time, you might just like it!

When you can’t defend a simple guillotine I think it is time to go. That said Jens did say he would never retire
"I have to carry out another fine moment before I die."
-Tatsuya Kawajiri-
No, Jens doesn’t need to go to Brazil to train BJJ. He needs to retire. It’s the end of the road.

Bro he just needs to go to Alliance and train some BJJ bro. After that he can defend a simple guillotine.

Defending the guilliotine isn’t the main problem – getting dropped and rocked by anyone and everyone who can land a flush shot on him is the problem.

“This is a great shot.” PBP guy says of the overhead camera, which loses the fighters and is centered on the logo. LOL
Is it wrong that the highlight of this card so far for me has been the commentary and the waist on the brunennte ring girl?

If this fight goes the distance, that means that Lambert and Sylvia would have to hulk smash their opponents to keep the broadcast on time.
