The guy blanked and then wanted to re-shoot before his partner mentioned they were live... He just smiled. God it was funny! Pretty funny, but very unprofessional throughout the webcast.

It kinda made me feel like I was watching pride again. Baroni had that fight in the first round if he didn't gas so dramatically toward the end of the round. Not a bad event though, Hawaiians are tough fighters. I just wish there was another way I could have watched it other than streaming it from the internet.

I'm talking about Team Takedown's domination. They were all devastating and showed they have the tools to make it in the Big Leagues. Pretty good show with good action in most of the fights.

I will never agree with stomps and soccer kicks to a downed opponent. 2. When did the WWF start sending refs to do MMA? The ref in the Baroni fight never separated them properly and didn't stop them at the end of the 2nd round, the announcer guy was basically the bell. Ref just never seemed in control of the fight I only saw the Baroni fight, but:
