Wow. I was rooting for Lawler but happy for Hendricks

[Rich]

If anybody has fight pass, may I recommend to you that all the WEC main cards from the point at which Zuffa purchased the WEC are all up now, this includes earlier career fights form the likes of Carlos Condit, Chael P Sonnen, Brian Stann, Johny Hendricks, Donald Cerrone, Mark Munoz, Uriah Faber, Dominick Cruz, Jose Aldo and (Some of) the latter career of Jens Pulver (who I will always hold a soft spot for) amongst others

[Rich]

And they have also now put up the first 20 Pride events

[Benjamin]

Is Bodyblow one of the first 20? I don't remember, but if it is, I recommend everybody watch that. One of my favorite PRIDE events.

Also for WEC, I'd recommend the one WEC 53 (the last one), the PPV one (I think it was 48?), Cerrone / Henderson 1, the one with the Cerrone vs. Ed Ratcliff, Varner vs. Cerrone 1 (it had Pulver / Faber 2 on the card as well!), and Pulver / Faber 1. I don't much about the early ones, however, kind of got into it sometime after ZUFFA bought it.

[Rich]

just all of the cards once Zuffa bought them are fun, even if some of the reason its fun is the mis-matches that occur.

Oh and everyone should watch Torres vs Mizugaki immediately.

[Benjamin]

Bendo versus Khabilov is on, on the New Mexico show in June. Awesome fight, plus I really hope Khabilov wins, dude's a beast.

Melvin Guillard's been released.

Khabib Nurmagomedov as a child. Wrestling a bear.

What. The. Fuck.

[Cymbols]

This was making the rounds a while back but it's been confirmed that the kid isn't Khabib. Still, pretty crazy stuff whoever it is.

EDIT- Ivan Menjivar also released.

[Summers]

If it was, it woulda explained the undefeated run..

However, yeah, that's insane. Why the hell would you make kids wrestle bears!?

[Rich]

In Soviet Russia, etc...

[Benjamin]

The Wil Chope / Diego Brandao fight has been cancelled.

[Rich]

And Chope has been released due to his previous domestic assaults coming to light

[Gazz]

He's been given the chope

[HC]

He's been given the chope

[Rich]

Yeeeeeeeaaaaaahhhh Live fights

[Rich]

HOLY SHIT BIG KNEE!

[HC]

I love it when the Brazilians get whooped on their home turf.

[Rich]

The crowd silence was crazy

[HC]

That performance was dominant as hell.

Ezekiel Jackson would be proud.
