Did anyone watch UFC last night?
Cause that was just flat out nasty . .

I think from what I read on wrestlingobserver.. he was out for seven minutes afterwards. . but the word is he's okay.

1. What happened?
Your pic doesn't show up.

I watch it once in awhile if I am not at work, where I was last night.

2. It was suppose to be a GIF actually
I clicked on it and hten selected view image and it worked

just a nasty little knock out really . . Rasheed kicked Salmon right in the side of the face knocking him out bad . . I mean bad. To make matters worse Rasheed went in and got two more unprotected punches before the Ref stopped it..

He was apparently out for a good seven minutes. . but he is apparently okay.

3. I'm amazed Rashad finished his opponent.
That was a great kick, and much more satisfying then another decision.

5. He TKO'd his last opponent before Salmon.
He got the mount on Jason Lambert and TKO'd him. That's two in a row, and now he has 5 decisions and 5 finishes.

4. Oh yeah....Crocop like high kick. Also, Salmon's okay.

Salmon was out for a good 10 minutes. He was thoroughly checked out a hospital and he's okay.




Check out the reactions of the people in the background.

6. That was badass.
I doubted Evans for a long time, but he's the real deal. I suggest a major step up in competition for him.

How about Rashad Evans vs Tito Ortiz? Yeaaaah, sign me up for that.

What a disappointing debut for Heath Herring though. I'd heard good things about him but he looked terrible. And besides that he kinda took his loss like a punk bitch.

Franca vs Sherk is gonna be fun to watch.

7. Rashad vs Ortiz would be good, or put Rashad against Babalu or Forrest

I think Ortiz would beat him right now, but it would be a war. Although, I think he could be Babalu or Forrest now.

His next fight he should step up in competition hopefully.

8. I thought about Forrest but he's coming off back to back losses
And I'd like to see him build some momentum.

Babalu would be a good challenge for Evans. I just think Tito and Evans match up very well skill-set wise.

Jardine is another guy that Evans might be paired against. Style wise he might give Rashad the most trouble actually.

Evans is defintely a guy to watch.

You don't happen to know what happened in the Marquart/Lister fight? I'm pretty sure it was on the card last night.

I still can't believe it didn't make the telecast. They give us Chris Price and Ed Herman? Pah!

11. Jardine and Rashad said they won't fight each other.

They both train out of Greg Jackson's camp and are good friends. There has been some contention on this because Dana White said he might try to make them fight anyway.

12. Interesting. I didn't know they trained together.
I'd like to see them fight, but there are better match-ups available for them both right now so there's no rush.

I can't wait for Saturday.

Poor, poor Travis Lutter. I hope he doesn't get hurt too bad. He seems like a nice guy.
