mine was for sure hendo shogun in san jose. we had box seats through a rich buddy that made it easy to sneak down to some empty seats 30 rows back or so. i held my piss the whole show because i was nervous we wouldn’t be able to get back to our seats if we left.
Tank vs. Frye and Royce vs. Kimo
I saw my mom throw a plate at my dad and both got arrested. I was 27.
Anthony Macias vs Houston Dor, great fight
My best one was a smoker at Yumma. Was two dudes covered in prison tats. Bad prison tats. Like biro looking stuff. One of the guys had a ponytail, but on the front of his head not the back. Never seen that haircut before or since.
Fight itself was wild and went the distance. Kelvin gastelum was there watching too. He looked confused
Full bj legend fight for the title
Greatest comeback ever in the last seconds of losing
Thomas (Hitman) Hearns vs Roberto Duran … the Malice at the Palace. June 1984.
Sean Sherk was badass. BJ Penn was smooth as hell.
UFC 34. I didn’t buy the best seats but MGM ended up closing down the section I was in and put my group up in the first 10 rows because of it. Got to see Penn v Uno, Hughes v Newton (Double KO), and Rizzo v Coutour.
Another vote for this fight. Had similar seats in the back row of the closest section.
The biggest thing I remember about that fight other than the knee, is Sherk having the largest cold sore ever. After the finish BJ’s hand wiping up Sherk’s cold sore blood and rubbing it all over his face and mouth.
Gross.
Big Nog vs Timmay for the UFC interim HW title
Maybe Cub Swanson vs Doo-Ho Choi.
Honourable mentions:
- Holloway beating the brakes off Ortega
- Machida vs Couture
Diaz - Gomi
Bc it was awesome as everyone knows and it was Pride
