1. I laughed when Rory was talking shit at the end....
The dude was 3 seconds from getting his ass knocked out. Excellent kick though...

2. I don't know if he was hurt as bad as it seemed
Edited on Tue Jul-22-08 07:43 PM by Wetzelbill
He seemed to recover pretty fast. But yeah, he was definitely hurt, I think he was in more trouble after he caught a couple knees in the clinch, he had to backpedal and get his bearings after that. Markham's tough, though. I liked him in the IFL, he's fun to watch.

on edit:

He definitely should avoid the trash talking, I agree with that, the guy had him rocked.

6. "Irvin tried unfurling a right leg kick,

but Silva caught it and retaliated with a stick of dynamite planted firmly on Irvin’s mouth. The blow was dealt with the precision of a surgeon and the speed of a piston. Irvin slumped to the canvas, and the Cannon from Curitiba, Brazil, pounced on his opponent with a vicious barrage of punches, punctuated by two lethal right hands."

Anderson Silva and Fedor showed why they're the two best in the game right now.


Also, if you didn't seen Dream 5, the Kawajiri/Alvarez fight was a barn burner:
