Does Gabi Garci fighting a 51 year old retired pro wrestler scratch that itch? Because if so I have great news for you....

They were supposed to do that match last year for the New Years show but Kandori got injured. And she's 53.

big deal .. some people might think its impressive to be 53 but i think it will take more than just being 53 to overcome the strength of gabi garcia

My favourite thing about Gabi Garcia was the look on her face after she was NC'd for soccer kicking her ancient shoot-boxing opponent about seven seconds after being warned about doing the exact same thing.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
Gabi Garcia v A Grandma is literally side by side with chechyan children MMA with things i have seen that make me cringe, embarrassed, and shameful to be a supporter of the sport.

Wow. There are a silly number of fights going on this weekend. Between the UFC, Bellator, and random promotions on fightpass, I counted 54 MMA fights and 9 kickboxing bouts. (17 of those MMA matches are in Pancrase, so not sure if that really counts)

Invicta is happening

First fight ended when a 18 year old grabbed an armbar in like 20 seconds.

Now we have some kickpunch

Yeah. It has been decent so far.

I think that 18 year old is gonna be in free Tito Ortiz Punishment gear for a while.

49-46?

I could see 48-47 but 4 rounds for Maia is a rotten decision.

I checked out when Aga hurt Maia then got clinched for the rest of the round. Judges probably did too.

It's with sadness that I report Alessio Sakara has let down our great nation of Italy in his title fight. On the bright side, he at least put up a valiant effort in the attempt, landing a total of zero strikes and holding firm against his opponent for almost 45 seconds before getting knocked out.
