Last night I watched the UFC Live fights on Spike. Anderson Silva KO'd James Irvin in 61 seconds. The two fighters were feeling each other out and Irvin threw a body kick. Silva caught it with his arm and hit Irvin dead square in the jaw. Irvin's body crumpled to the mat and Silva finished him with the obligatory face pounding. Silva is just amazing. Many facets to his game. I said yesterday that if the fight got to the mat it would be over because of Irvin's knockout power. Wow, guess I was wrong. Silva's kickboxing is solid. He is well rounded and that is why he's a rockstar in the UFC right now. Silva was very gracious in victory. Class act.
Here is the fight (Thanks YouTube)
I'm watching the British Open this morning. I'll be rooting hard for Greg Norman to win. He is obviously the story of the tournament, but I've always liked the old, wiley veterans coming back to old form. It'll be interesting to watch.
