i think it was just a bad night in general, scott smith AND lawler are much better than what they showed, lawler looked like shit though, i cant believei thought he had a chance at anderson, booerns to me on that 1
the carano fight was cool...the kimbo fight was weird, kimbo looked a little too relaxed imo, too much pressure is being put on him and imo i think it showed...the other fights were meh to me, baroni is still a bum and thats pretty much it....just everything that shouldnt have happened, happened....they should have had nick diaz on that card

everything was good for the most part. The refs and doctors did there job, and it was to protect the fighters. Even though some of the fights could have kept going it was also to prevent the first time viewers from being scared to see something that might shock them. Next time they will do better

He also won't give Gina Carano, Shana Bazler, Tara LaRosa, or Caitlin Young a shot on his promotion. He's far from perfect.

This is why many orgs have collapsed while UFC and Dana thrive.

It was a good event and all the purist bitching isn't going to change public perception one iota.

War Dana.
Kimbo is a joke. EXPOSED.
EliteXC is a joke.
Gary Shaw is a joke.
The end.
