i got back from UFC in ATL about 5pm today ( 5hr drive)
was a awesome event we had great seats and i saw a lot of fighters at the hotel... i was in the elevator with daniel cormier and luke rockhold from strikeforce.... then my GF and i went to the UFC tailgate party outside the hotel and there was this huge line with like 200 people in it waiting to get in this mobile UFC display truck... my GF wanted to go in as there was a frame with GSPs shorts in it ( yea she loves him) so we accidentally walked past the line and this guy asked us if we were sent over and i said yes... we were taken inside and it turned out that line was a autograph line for forrest griffin so we felt real bad that people has been waiting for hours... but yeah we met him and got pics and all that ...was pretty cool
then at the event we saw brian stann anthony pettis clay guida chael sonnen and a few others.. was a great time and really solid card the first 2 rounds of the jones evan fight was really good i mean being there it might have appeared closer than it was the crowd was crazy..but yeah by round 4 the momentum really turned and everyone in the crowd sorta just knew where it was going
the way jones was throwing those elbows like punches was crazy... i think he is gonna have to go to heavyweight or something... in person he looked 2 weight classed bigger than evans
they announced after the fight hendo is next....but i think his only chance is to fight him really tight and pressure him enough to land one of his hbombs.... the longer that fight goes i think it will get ugly and hendo will be a slow target..... so yeah he needs to say **** it and come out swinging just like the fedor fight and see what happens
