This and That

3 cheers for Randy Couture!!
He beat up, then beat the walking sleeping pill Tim Sylvia. Brains over Brawn. Although it's true what person once wrote about big Tim, he has all the grace of a new born giraffe.

Randy's next fight is the winner of Cro Cop v. Gonzaga...my money is on Cro Cop.

As for the Pride/UFC buyout, I'm happy with it. It will in fact lead to more diversity, more dream fights. Pride will need to get more visibility in North America though, to really reap the benefits of these super fights.

The only drawback is for the fighters themselves, with the Zuffa monopoly so to speak. This is probably why Elite XC, Elite Pro, Strike Force, Cage Rage, Showtime, Spirit XC and Bodog fight all came together to form an alliance, to form a "rebellion" so to speak against the "Empire"

We're in for an exciting ride in MMA.
