I might have shown Adrian Peterson on camera earlier between rounds which would have avoided having AD butted right up against the start of a round. Yeah, I am a huge AD fan as he is one of our greatest Sooners…don’t get me started.

Demian Maia is a bad dude and is going to be special or perhaps I should say more special as time goes on. Maia’s got it all. Plus, I enjoyed watching him put on his sponsor laden T shirt in record time after his fight. It was a "Tap Out" shirt for the record so the advertising must have worked.

It’s easy to get too familiar with the Harley Davidson spiel…"only motorcycle worthy of being in the Octagon." Please tweak the copy so I don’t tune out when I hear it. That’s not the purpose.

Is Bruce Buffer ever referred to as "Buffer-Light"? Buffer, who gets less camera time than yours truly, reminds me of an old time wrestling ring announcer. That’s not a bad thing in my world. I will give the man his due, Buffer busted a seam on the introductions of the main event.

The UFC needs a 3rd voice, a voice over guy, to read the copy for the fighter’s packages and any thing else they can take off Mike Goldberg’s plate. Doing play by play is plenty even with a partner like Joe Rogan.

Condom Depot dot com. Exactly. That was one of the primary sponsors for fighter Rob Emerson Saturday night. Amazing.

I am learning that guys that can execute kicks and that effectively utilize their knee strikes are amazingly dangerous. I’ll admit that I am a little slow on matters such as this but it just seems like kicks and knees are becoming more "user friendly" in the Octagon.

Cheick Kongo…heavyweight…interesting. I’m staying tuned. Old Cheick is another one that needs to work on his promos.

Heath Herring had the most effective entrance of the night. He borrowed my black hat gimmick but what’s a guy to do? Herring will feel like he’s been in a violent car crash by the time you read this and no one can ever say that Herring isn’t a tough S.O.B.

Brock Lesnar was a beast Saturday night winning by unanimous decision against Heath Herring. Lesnar who made weight at 265 likely tipped the Toledos at around 280 by fight time and used that weight and strength advantage effectively. Lesnar delivered some nasty knees throughout the fight. The former NCAA Heavyweight Champion (2000) can take any one down that I have seen in MMA. If there is a man out there that can keep his feet for extended periods of time against Lesnar then I definitely want to see that man compete.
