Any of you guys UFC fight fans..?

I think the latest one was UFC 71, and Chuck Liddell, probably the sports most visible athlete, got himself KTFO...I'm trying to find a clip of it, but it was a homerun, right on the kisser...I just read an article about him in ESPN the magazine, seemed like a great guy too...I don't know much about the guy that floored him, other than that he has a helluva right hand...

He landed a doozy to Liddel

I get ESPN the Rag and it was a good article. Nice to see badasses can be good people, good dads, good role models.

Not much of a UFC fan... mainly just not enough time or money to invest in learning, watching, etc

ESPN the Rag? I love that magazine!

I don't watch too much UFC but it seems like a really good sport. I wish it was shown more on TV and advertised more. But yea....Liddell got his ass handed to him

I like ESPN the Rag but mainly only get it because it was a package deal with the ESPN Insider (mainly for fantasy baseball)

I'm a baseball and fantasy baseball/ stat/ sabermetric/ roto junkie

It's a better deal to get the magazine first, 'cause they throw in a year of the ESPN Insider free. Sad that insider is needed for 99% of the original content nowadays.
If you like fantasy baseball, i assume you like Rotoworld.com too?

UFC seems great and I'm glad it's getting more publicity. Liddell is really the only popular name and that's because of the things he does outside of the Octagon more than what he does inside. Like I said earlier, hopefully this will become big

Naw I like.... Baseball Prospectus and MinorMajorLeage (John Sickle- ESPN writer's website)

I agree TT Lidle seems cool for what he does outside more than in it (although it looks like he's done a lot in, too)

Dont know why UFC isnt marketed better, maybe that's how I'll make my next million. Off to work I go. LoL
