Too bad Fickett/Shields is off. My only problem is the limited number of announced fights. I went to the last Strikeforce show in San Jose, which was pretty exciting overall. They had around 12-13 fights that night. So far for this event which is less than a week away they only have 4-5 fights finalized. A part of this is the outstanding number of fighters pulling out for various reasons (Cyborg, Shields, and Thompson). I think this is the only factor holding me back from buying a ticket.

If someone lifts their leg while defending a leg kick it is called "checking." Meaning it is not going to do as much damage. And you do score points with knees. Steven please take notes and prepare for our bout. I am going to school Quadros. I am looking for a sponsor and hoping proelite and tapout can help. On the next Kimbo card: Quadros vs Olson Please give me some traction with this. back to Quadros… If someone lifts their leg while defending a leg kick it is called “checking.” Meaning it is not going to do as much damage.

Close fight??? yes... All Aina... Not a chance. Diaz stood and banged, and for a guy notorious for his cuts he actually looked better than aina after the fight. The knockdown that aina had (and quados gave him a hj and a bj for) was mid head kick. If Quadros was trying to headkick me and I kicked his other leg out, would it be a knockdown????????? It's official... I am challenging Steven "The Fag Professor" to an mma bout. Anytime and anyplace. Gotta run_ Hua vs.Lawler Thanks for listening, and Fag Prof... I'll be looking for you! just watched diaz vs aina and i think “the fight professor” is a complete idiot. Close fight??? yes… All Aina… Not a chance.

Le has plenty of fights under his belt.. pros vs. joes??

Goldberg stutters more than porky the pig.. and Mauro.. just says some straight-up stupid stuff.. Quadros isn't sooo bad.. but he says stupid stuff too.. last saturday: Quadros: "i'm glad this cage is reinforced because there's 500 lbs. of manhood leaning against it.." i'm sure he could have worded that better to sound less like he's talking about 500 lbs. of genitalia.. ya..
