Huge upset over the weekend as Matt Sera defeated George St. Pierre. The latter, a magnificent stylist and one of the best all around martial artists in the UFC, caught a punch, slipped on the mat, and caught a few more from a ferocious Sera. In any sport, you have to be able to finish hard and Sera proved that he could sieze an opportunity when it presented itself.

So here's what will happen. Matt Hughes will fight Sera after he has had a rematch with St. Pierre. The winner will fight Sera. For the UFC this was a dream result as we could be looking at 3 high profile fights in one division.

You could say it's a mix of Kickboxing with Wrestling.

Basically its' like a street fight, except with UFC gloves, and the odd restriction... eg. No getting someone in the balls and no eye gouging... apart from that basically everything else goes. barely anything restrictions and you win by either finish your opponent off where he can't fight or lock him in a submission where he gives up... or K.O.

UFC is good. The Japanese version Pride is good to.

UFC just bought Pride so we will be seeing a lot of title unification bouts over the next year.
I wish I had bought stock in the UFC because in the span of the last 2-3 years they have expanded more than they did in the previous 20. It's huge in North America right now. This upcoming weekend will see an international card from London, England so soon it will become global.

I have been a martial artist for over 30 years. I have seen every conceivable knockout known to man. But 2 weeks ago on the "Eurocard" UFC matches, the Croation champion, Cro Cop, the most feared kicker in the UFC got knocked out by a kick himself. It almost took his head off. He got hit so hard that it looked like he broke his legs from the fall. It's probably in youtube somewhere. If I find it I'll put the link here. You HAVE to see it.

Various_Artists-decayed.gif Last night a wild UFC card. The main event pitted what until now had been the greatest UFC fighter of the last decade, Chuck Liddell against the last man to defeat him, Rampage Jackson. Within the first minute the challenger knocked out Liddell with one wicked left hook. Anyone watching the fight would have noted Jackson's controlled, disciplined, classic style was simply too much for the vicious but wild-swinging Liddell.
UFC will kill boxing because the fights are real; no bullshit associations changing champions every weekend and on any given night ANYONE can win. This is excitement.
As a life-long boxing fan, I'm sorry to see it sink so far so fast. But when crooks run the game, this is what you get.
Next UFC is from Ireland.
