Choi is fighting tomorrow night, I think. Does anyone have the information on the match? Like time, where it is broadcasted?

I want to see him get his ass handed to him.

Rumor has it that XTM will carry the fight with intro starting at 6pm. The Yarennoka website has the major broadcast listed at 8pm, so I'm assuming that's when the main event begins. Emelianenko/Choi is the last match on the card.

Who really wants to see that big dummy fight with his pillow-sized boxing gloves?

Gee, can't wait.

No boxing gloves as it is NOT a K1 fight. MMA rules apply meaning Choi on his back getting pummelled by Fedor.

Oh, well maybe that would be good to see.

It'd be better to see the mean Russian get defeated, but I think that Choi is probably too nice a guy to be dirty and destructive enough to win...

Watch his last fight with Mo and see if he was sportsmanlike then.

You have to be 'dirty and destructive' to win at combat sports? I mean, Jesus Christ, do you even think before making a post? Why would Choi take the fight if he had moral qualms against winning it?

Fedor is not mean by the way. He's an outstanding role model and great father.

too fast....sad. But, man....2 identical arm locks in 1st round??? I wonder if he'd purposefully trained for that...seems like it the way Fedor rushed him.

I think it may have been a fixed fight. Fedor got the win I don't think he would have gotten if Choi - who didn't appear to suffer much at all - didn't agree to fake being submitted by a less than convincing arm-bar...

I bet the Japanese Mafia - Yakuza or whatever - had Choi's family and loved ones tied up with Ginzu knives to their throats! Twisted Evil ...

How the hell was that unconvincing? Have you ever gotten or given one of those things?

To me it looked like a little 5 year-old kid putting an arm-bar on a grown man ...

Choi should have tried that slam move from the top position that George St. Pierre did to Matt Hughes yesterday ...

Fedor would have been crushed.

As it was, he took a beating.

Realistically, I concede that it was probably on the level - but it looked funny...

Why dont you resist the temptation to post...its not hard..you dont know what your talking about ...so you look completely stupid.

You just witnessed a man with highly developed skills take on a circus freak. Im surprised it wasnt over quicker.
