UFC 97 Weigh-ins and the Q and A with GSP

UFC 97 Weigh-ins and the Q and A with GSP
by DDP on 2009/04/17 9:29 PM


"Electrifying."


That would be the best way to describe the weigh-ins in one word. The turnout was amazing. Joe Rogan said he could judge how intense an event will be by the turnout for the weigh-ins.

This event should be intense.


Those who have rolled with me know that I am a fan of the 'rubber guard'. It is a work of art I say. So you will never guess who I ran into at the weigh-ins.... Yah Eddie Bravo. He would probably be on the MMA Bros.net Top 5 Bro Picks List for Cool People if there were such a list.



Moments before this picture was taken Eddie mentioned that he just blazed and was the only one paranoid 'looking out for cops and shit' unaware that Montreal was that liberal about the sticky-icky. Haha. A "freshly stoned" pic with Eddie Bravo.


Eddie Bravo enjoying life in Montreal.


So this is the official card.


Main Card

Anderson Silva vs. Thales Leites
Chuck Liddell vs. Mauricio Rua
Luiz Cane vs. Steve Cantwell
Krzysztof Soszynski vs. Brian Stann
Cheick Kongo vs. Antoni Hardonk

Preliminary Card

Denis Kang vs. Xavier Foupa-Pokam
David Loiseau vs. Ed Herman
David Bielkheden vs. Mark Bocek
T.J. Grant vs. Ryo Chonan
Sam Stout vs. Matt Wiman
Jason MacDonald vs. Nate Quarry

Some realllly good fights to lookout for on the prelims. I can't believe some of these fights won't be aired! That preliminary card is probably the most stacked one yet and the upcomming events including UFC 100 are going to be sick as well.


Looking forward to tomorrow nights action that for sure.


G'nite.
