I thought the chick fights were the highlight to be honest. That Gina Carano can mount me any day
. I'd never seen female MMA before last night and I was pretty impressed. That's not to say that the rest of the fights weren't any good though.
I thought it was great that Baroni "the new york jackass" got beat the fvck up after dancing his way into the ring in a sparkling sequined robe. Douchebag. I think at 10-10 he might be done in the professional MMA scene though. I would have liked to have seen him get his ass kicked a few more times but whatever.
That Kimbo fight was pretty solid but I really wish those guys had been in better shape. Did they not know they were going to be in the ring potentially for 15 mins? They were completely gassed after the first round. I kind of wanted Big Black to hop into the ring and finish that guy off. btw, was anyone else disgusted when his ear popped? You had to know that was coming... but wow. Dirty.
All in all, I'm glad they're bringing MMA into mainstream entertainment to get it some more exposure, but they need to put the fireworks and smoke effects away. The whole thing was waaaay too sensationalized. They're doing a good thing the wrong way.
Kimbo/Thompson fight
(who doesn't?) but was it the best fight to air on national tv for the first time...I think not. While i'm sure a bunch of ppl tuned in I dont think that sort of slug fest with two average MMA athletes (and yes they were average at best when compared to other MMA fighters)was the best fight they could have put together. Especially when it was representing the MMA for the first time on national non cabletv. I mean that guys colly ear was questionable before the fight even started you knew that it was going to explode in blood at some point. No doubt Kimbo puts "asses in seats" as someone said but I think it would have been better served as an undercard fight.
