my first ever pride event i stayed up and watched live on a friend’s store’s satelllite TV during college
big nog became my favorite fighter when i saw the tape of his fight against Bob Sapp
it was awesome to see him him do his Big Nog thing and finish crocop after getting battered by crocop the entire first round
Was watching this live with some Army dudes that said Kerr had to sign a release that his people wouldn’t sue if Ranger Scott killed him.
These guys were talking about this would be the first death in the octagon.
I bet all of them and felt bad watching their disappointment when their boy came out with the gimp stance and was rolling on the canvas after the first knee.
I didn’t collect on any of the bets, which made them feel worse.
I remember Martin won the first round pretty easily then got KO’d at the start of the second. During the interview, Irvin says he drilled faking a punch then throwing that knee because he knew that Irvin always leaned over when he saw a punch coming.
