Thats very cool. To say it sounds like you had a great time would prob an understatement. Thats pretty sweet that you got moved closer to the ring to fill the seats, but probably not so great for Affliction.
Anyways I love that pic you posted with AA layed out and Fedor just walking away with the slight fist pump.
unbelievable pictures. It's a shame Arlovski was a d!ck b/c I'm a fan, still I loved that pic of him flattened, especially after the earlier picture of Fedor in his corner waiting to unleash his wrath.
Big Nog is on the left in your picture with both twins, I think.
Arlovski is the first MMA fighter I've encountered that's a jerk. Actually, Hayato Mach Sakurai was also a douche. He just ignored us when we tried to get a picture with him.
I also think Big Nog is the one the left. It's pretty hard to tell which one is which.
Fedor didn't really speak at all besides saying "Thank You". Very quiet guy but he's grounded and not afraid to mingle with his fans.
PS: I don't think Arlovski was being a d*ck, at least not on purpose. He was probably uber-disappointed after his very thorough fight prep, which was working to a t, until, well...
Im sorry but Id have come across like a dick if I was him to, I mean he just lost what perciebably could have been his career defining moment who wants to hear 100 people tell him well nice try, I mean I wouldnt.
That was really cool and thanks for sharing. Was that a hotel lobby or the stadium lobby that you met all the fighters? And was it something to do with your tickets you got to go there or just anyone could go wait to meet them?
Also I was wondering about the stadium being full. We noticed on the PPV is got a lot more crowded nearing the main fights. Disappointing to hear they moved everyone down to make it look full as I was hoping they would sell a lot of tickets. I guess it worked out well for you though!!
I don't really mind Bruce Buffer but the live event was better than UFC's because they use a ring instead of a cage. So you can see what's going on without the fence blocking the view.
No, I'm not friends with Allistair. I've met him before after his fight in Pride 33. Cool guy, his brother wasn't so great. He was in a pissy mood and didn't want Allistair to stop for a picture. Allistair didn't listen and took his time posing for the picture. LOL.
