Is Kimbo Slice vs Tank Abbott off for this weekend or did they put the wrong name down?
Vin...KS real name is Kevin Ferguson. I guess MMA has gone porno with "stage names" now.

I'm really looking forward to seeing Anderson Silva vs. Dan Henderson in UFC. I'm not sure the exact date but I know it is coming up. It should be one of the better matches of the year.
Its Saturday March 1st. I'm going with Silva on this one. I like Henderson, but Silva is the man.
I'll bet a beer on that... Hendo for me.

I've never seen a fight that I thought "The Spider" was gonna win, but that motherfucker kills it every time with authority. It's hard to pick against him, he's a badass.

WEC 32
RIO RANCHO, N.M., Feb. 13 -- Carlos Condit defeated Carlo Prater to retain his WEC welterweight championship Wednesday.
A native of Albuquerque, Condit came out to a thunderous roar of support from 4,648 local fans chanting his name inside the Santa Ana Star Center. He started the fight exchanging leg kicks with Prater, who had handed him his first career loss, oddly enough in Albuquerque, in September 2004.
Prater, 26, of Brasilia, Brazil, scored a swift takedown. However, Condit used his long frame to control from the guard, where he began to work submissions.
After a failed armbar, Condit switched to a guillotine. He lost the hold but sat up and tried again, this time successfully sinking in the choke at 3:48 of the first round.
"I'm very comfortable on my back, like I've proven before," Condit said. "All my wins in the WEC so far have come by submission. I'm not complaining at all."
Winning in front of his home crowd was almost too much for the 23-year-old mixed martial artist to handle.
"It feels great," Condit said. "More than that, it feels so good I'm speechless right now. It feels so good to just be in front of my hometown, all the support I got. Beating a guy like Carlo Prater,he's a badass. I was able to catch him tonight, but he's an incredible fighter. I'm overwhelmed."
The win improved Condit's record to 22-4, including three submission victories in WEC championship bouts. In defeat Prater dropped to 21-6-1.
In lightweight title action, Huntington Beach, California's Rob McCullough relinquished his belt to Jamie Varner.
Following two relatively slow rounds that saw Varner go after McCullough with takedown attempts and a solid boxing game, the challenger finally tasted the champion's power in the third when a right hand knocked out his mouthpiece.
Varner, 23, of Tempe, Ariz., recovered to score with a left that had McCullough reeling. More punches followed from the underdog before a straight right hit its mark and dropped the 30-year-old McCullough to the canvas.
The soon-to-be champion plastered "Razor" Rob with a third straight right that put the tattooed fighter on the canvas for good, forcing referee Steve Mazzagatti to call the fight 2:54 into the round.
"I grew up boxing," said Varner, now 14-2 with two no contests. "Everybody called me a wrestler. He expected me to wrestle. So I kind of put my wrestling on the backburner during this training camp and really worked on my striking -- and man it really paid off tonight."
Miguel Torres, 27, of East Chicago, Ind., used slick jiu-jitsu to take Chase Beebe's bantamweight belt at 3:59 of round one.
After the fighters exchanged a few kicks, including one that had Beebe dazed, the bout went to the ground. Torres was in charge the whole time.
"I knew he was a really good wrestler," Torres said. "I knew he was working on his hands for a while. I wanted to box him. I've been using my hands for a long time. When it went to the ground, basic jiu-jitsu."
Beebe, a 22-year-old from Chicago, fought off an armbar attempt. Torres then transitioned impressively from an anaconda to a reverse rear-naked choke to a modified guillotine submission hold that forced the tap from Beebe, who fell to 11-2.
"I had the anaconda choke," said Torres, 21-1. "I didn't want to roll because I know he was a good wrestler. He defended, so I jumped for the guard. I had it tight. I felt my hand slipping. He was pulling my arm down. I felt his neck open and I went for his neck."
In the first televised fight of the night, a scoring error was overturned to give Manny Tapia a split decision over Antonio Banuelos.
The judges initially scored the fight a split draw. After the correction, the final tally was 30-27 Tapia, 29-28 Banuelos and 29-28 Tapia. Cecil Peoples was the lone judge who scored the fight for Banuelos.
Undercard
UFC veteran Leonard Garcia, who trains in Albuquerque with Greg Jackson's team, made quick work of Hiroyuki Takaya, scoring a knockout at 1:31 of the first round.
Josh Grispi put Mark Hominick to sleep after a slick takedown. The Canadian had turned his back on Grispi, thinking he was safe. Grispi scored the takedown, then jumped on his opponent's back. After failing to get the rear-naked the first time, Grispi locked in the choke and held it for quite a while before the ref intervened at 2:55 of the first round.
Coty Wheeler finished off Del Hawkins in spectacular fashion. Another Albuquerque product, Wheeler landed the ever-evasive flying armbar at 1:57 of the second round.
Greg Jackson fighter Damacio Page grinded out a hard-fought unanimous decision over Scott Jorgenson after taking the fight on eight days' notice.
Charlie Valencia was the victim of a vicious body kick from Yoshiro Maeda. The strike crumbled him and gave the Japanese fighter a victorious U.S. debut via TKO at 2:29 of the first round.
Micah Miller knocked out Chance Farrar in the first fight of the night. He landed a beautiful right hand and followed up with two more punches that rained down on Farrar, finishing the bout at 1:39 of round one.

Exactly. I hate all these Kimbo nuthuggers. The guy will get owned by a grappler or better striker.
On Butterbean, here's a quick review of his last fight:
Butterbean fought at the LC Walker Arena in Muskegon, MI tonight and I had the pleasure of being five rows up in one of the good sections. Before I get into the meat of this, I'll give you some background story.
Butterbean fought against one of our local talent, Matt Blaine, who I believe was 3-0. I saw a couple of his fights from his amateur days and he showed a good deal of talent.
I happened to be sitting by a friend of one of Matt's trainers and we were discussing some of the finer points of MMA. The trainer came up and chatted with us for a while and dropped this bombshell on us...Butterbean apparently demanded that if the fight went to the ground, that it be stood up within ten seconds or he would NOT go through with the fight. This was AFTER he showed up and already got paid half up front. A very disrespectful "diva" act if I ever saw one.
So then our main event happened. Matt was kicking the utter crap out of Butterbean, at one point seriously rocking him with a hard punch. Butterbean basically threw a hissy fit when the ref separated them, claiming that Matt kicked him in the groin twice. I saw for myself that those kicks were to the stomach and nowhere near the groin. At the absolute lowest he got hit at the waist, if even that. So the fight restarted and Matt continued to go to work on him, working him over with knees and all of a sudden the ref stepped in. We went crazy thinking the ref stepped in to save Butterbean. We were wrong. He was "hit with a low blow"...again utter BS. The match was ruled a double disqualification and our local guy got completely and utterly screwed over. He landed nothing but clean shots on Butterbean, who got any and every celebrity call.
The booing was so loud that I didn't hear the signal for the end of the round. Butterbean actually quit in his corner between the first and second rounds and the officials inexplicably ruled it a double DQ. A spineless move on the officials' part which led to a HUGE "Butterbean Sucks" chant.

Yeah, and what is even more funny is when you bring up the Sean Gannon fight to them. They act like Gannon was cheating by using knees and elbows. Kimbo used them too. By the way, since when is anything illegal in a street fight? If you haven't seen the Gannon/Kimbo fight then search for it on youtube. Seeing Kimbo's "crew" whine the whole time and then watching Kimbo not get to his feet by the count of 30 is pricelss.

Sergio- I was a huge boxing fan too before getting into MMA and the Butterbean nonsense was always in the back of my mind in boxing as well. I mean who doesn't like to see a huge fat guy get in a ring for anything but he seemed to get too many decisions that i didn't agree with by a longshot. Meh that kind of stuff is what drove me away from the sweet science.
