    n It was my first MMA event and i was very impressed with the show. Of course UFC has a more polished production, Affliction definately held its own.

    It was more of a relaxed, party like setting than boxing events. I was very impressed at how approachable the fighters were. I seriously met at least 10-15 top fighters and bullshitted with them like I was at a party or something. I saw lots of other athletes as well. James Toney and Judah were there I also saw Strahan. The only person who was sort of a dick was Michael Buffer. Go figure, he has the best job in the world and he acts like a crabby bitch.

    I talked with Stitch Duran for a while and he is as cool as fuck. He said he loves cornering both sports and when I asked him how he liked the event he responded "my feet still havent touched the ground".

    The atmosphere was fantastic following 2 devastating knockouts by Barnett and Arlovski. This atmosphere was amplified 100x when Fedor walked into the ring like an unassuming plumber and ferociously mauled Timmy. The place went fucking nuts. I seriously have never seen electricity like that in a sporting event live. It was crazy.


    Definately looking forward to more shows in the future.

    Unfortunately Fedor was pretty much MOBBED after the fight, and as you know he is really low key, so I didn't even try. Not only that, of course he entered the opposite side of the arena from me unlike 90% of the other fighters for the night. Although I did get 1 pic from a distance. I missed my "holy grail" of pics. I missed the "Reed + Mayweather" :crying:
