ShoXC: Po’ai Suganuma vs. Jared Hamman

Friday, August 15th, 2008

Mauro Ranallo in rare form tonight–reviewing the controversial 15 second stoppage in the first meeting between these fighters he suggested that the first fight “lasted as long as my career highlights package”. He then unleashes a “Hawaiian Punch” blast before showing Suganuma’s video preview.

ShoXC: Sammy Morgan vs. Fabricio Camoes

Friday, August 15th, 2008

FIRST ROUND:
Morgan comes out kicking at Camoes legs, but that doesn’t last long as the Brazillian takes his opponent down and gets full mount. He throws down a few punches before transitioning to his opponent’s back. Caomes easily locks in the hooks and gets a quick rear naked choke for the tapout. …

ShoXC: Cyrille Diabate vs. Jamie Fletcher

Friday, August 15th, 2008

Fletcher trained by Josh Barnett, who is in Tokyo–Mauro points out his “moonlighting” as a pro wrestler and participation on yesterday’s IGF card. Fletcher an aspiring rapper–lets hope he’s more Roy Jones, Jr. and less Aleksander Emelianenko on the mic. Cyrille Diabate is French, but he must have some British roots because that …

EliteXC: Rosi Sexton vs. Debi Purcell

Friday, August 15th, 2008

Sexton sharp as a tack–she’s studying to be a osteopathic doctor, she’s an MMA writer and oh by the way a professional fighter. Debi Purcell is a pioneer in women’s MMA, though at age 39 might be a little past her prime. She’s a big, tough looking fighter and based on appearances alone …

GSP vs. Jon Fitch in the main event–this fight could be much more competitive than wagering odds are suggesting. Quick look at odds–GSP -420 at BetDSI, meaning he’s been bet up from the -350 that we saw all over the place yesterday. From strictly a value standpoint getting +350 with a fighter of …

UFC 87: Heath Herring vs. Brock Lesnar

Saturday, August 9th, 2008

Brock Lesnar vs. Heath Herring up next, which should be short and explosive. Herring suggesting he’s fought “bigger, stronger and more accomplished wrestlers”. Apparently Herring has been fighting on another planet, since Lesnar may be the biggest strongest human being we’ve ever seen. Lesnar gets off a great quote: “I’ve got a …

UFC 87: Rob Emerson vs. Manny Gamburyan

Saturday, August 9th, 2008

Reports are that pro wrestling legend Walter “Killer” Kowalski suffered a serious heart attack last night. He apparently has made some improvement today and remains in ICU but is responsive. THE SAVAGE SCIENCE sends our best wishes to a guy who trod the path in the WWE back when it was the WWWF …
