I've heard some hype surrounding this guy. Might be the real deal.

Anyway his fight isn't on the main card so it will not be televised. However, it should be replayed on the UFC website after the show is over tomorrow night.

I watched UFC 83 and 84 at home on XTM. They seemed to have gotten the rights to broadcast the events here in Korea.

It's on the SuperAction station - I'm watching the replays of what they showed this morning now (I don't want to know the results yet ...)

There's an event on Saturday in Mobile, Alabama I'd like to watch on the innertube. Anybody know how I can watch it?

I think it's called Cracker Beatdown IV.

Apologies for the cracker crack. Not as funny as I think I am.

Anyway, I'll be supporting the Irish lad that's fighting on the 31st against Todd leiterman, from Pensacola I think.

http://www.xtremetotalcombat.com/

Leitermans a much more experienced fighter I gather, it's the Irish lad's first pro fight in the States but he beat James Orso from Texas last October in Belfast, so he may be able to pull this off. Even if he loses, he will gain a lot of experience from this.

Ireland Pighting!!

yoshihiro akiyama

4th generation born in Japan.. I doubt you can really call him a Korean..

Same as Dennis Kang.. The guy is a Canadian.. a sell out but none the less Canadian..


Iknownothing.. Just like your your forum name.. .you do know nothing.

did ya get your list from wiki and called them great on your own?

All those fighters are either trained from another country or are absolutely shyte. Yoon Dong Shik is an absolute disgrace as an MMA fighter.

They're not very good at all...

yoshihiro akiyama has been caught several times "greasing" his body with moisture cream prior to fights, he's a f***ing cheat. He'd get destroyed by world class fighters in his weight class.

Dennis Kang is Canadian, and he's absolute garbage. I'd describe him as a poser.

Yoon Dong Shik has never faught anyone with a high level of skill. From what I've seen he seems very slow and very defensive.

But but but... he's the SUPER Korean. Rolling Eyes Yeah, like who's he ever beaten?

Anyway, they guy on the UFC wasn't bad. Certainly he finished of his opponent with a little style. Props for the finish. Now to see how he fares against bigger talents.

Hahaha, yeah. I just read his wikipedia biography. He was born on a French island, later moved the the Canary Islands, and finally to Canada in 1988... Yet he's known as "Super Korean"... I guess it's all in marketing, he'll probably end up being more popular here being known as "Super Korean". I understand his father is Korean, but it's still a stretch.
