Very pleased - I'm a big fan of the WEC - much more exciting fights.

Sweet, I'm a huge fan of the lighter divisions.
I just made a bet with my buddy that it would happen within a year, he owes me $50 bucks.

They're nuts. You gotta watch out for the little guys, we won't quit. Ever.

poor Brock is getting hammered by the MMA press recently. heres a good short read:
http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2010/11/3...or-easier-prey
Nothing like trying to fight like the 6th or 7th best HW in the UFC to try and bring your career back...Against Shane Carwin he ran across the cage to avoid thunderous blows. Against Cain Velasquez he wasn't even allowed that much dignity, pirouetting and cartwheeling around the Octagon like he was part of a drunken dance recital.....
...Simply put, Brock is a bully. When backed into a corner his instinct isn't to take the hard path. It's to find prey he thinks he can conquer - and attack. Bryan Alvarez, editor of the Wrestling Observer's sister newsletter Figure Four Weekly, says Brock isn't looking to rematch Carwin or get a return bout with Velasquez. Instead, Lesnar reportedly has set his sights on Roy Nelson.
