Go here for information about our UFC Viewing Parties for this weekend!
MMA FANS KNOW that UFC 119 is a fight card that might be overlooked by some fans – but don’t make that mistake – there’s some great match-ups here. This is an event that has kept the MMA rumor sites guessing throughout the summer. For those of you who don’t follow, we’ll try to sum it up for you as quickly as possible:
UFC 119 Las Vegas Viewing Parties at Station Casinos
There’s these two big scary Brazilian brothers, both named Antonio Nogiera (I know, it’s weird) so they go by “Big Nog” (Heavyweight) and “Little Nog” (Light Heavyweight) to make it easier on us Americans. Big Nog was to fight Frank Mir in the main event. Little Nog was the co-main event vs. Ryan Bader. Little Nog’s won 7 straight fights. Bader’s 12-0 and the winner of the Ultimate Fighter show a couple seasons ago. Both are gnarly fighters on a roll, in other words.
Then Big Nog gets hurt in practice, so Croatian kickboxer and Pride Fighting legend, Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovich agreed to step in and give it a go. He’s got tree trunks for legs, and used to be a Croatian Special Forces Law Enforcement Officer. Cro Cop vs. Mir might be the one of the most quotable fights ever. Cro Cop is known for an all-time great pre-fight threat: “Right leg hospital. Left leg cemetery.” Frank Mir went on the record recently saying that Cro Cop can “kick your head into the bleachers.” Two other Ultimate Fighter show alumni, CB Dollaway and Matt Mitrione, will try to climb the ranks in their fights on Saturday night. The rest of the fight card showcases what’s awesome about the middle weight classes of the UFC – anything can happen. Sean Sherk, Melvin Guillard, Matt Serra and Chris Lytle can either knock their opponents out, or tie them in knots. Anybody’s guess which strategy they pick this Saturday night in Indy.
