Heavyweight Championship: Randy Couture d Tim Sylvia UJD

Notes

Holman was just a can for Hamill, but it doesn't do anything for Hamill. Laying and hitting can get old quick.

Renato is just having a bad day. No one saw that punch coming in. This should be at least a bit disappointing, but it shouldn't hold Babalu back that much.

I'm sorry folks. Lytle/Hughes is godawful boring. Lytle's never been an exciting fighter. Pairing him with Hughes didn't do Hughes any favors other then show him he's got to brush up on stuff.

Franklin/MacDonald was expected. The outcome probably wasn't, but how it turned out was. Not going to hurt either man though.

How to describe Couture/Sylvia? What's a good analogy? It was like...It was like watching Randy beat on a big fish hanging on a hook and when the fish fell down, Randy would wrestle it. Where the hell was Tim's ground defense? Don't they teach ground defense at MFS?

(sorry this took long. I'm feeling under the weather.)
