my updating has become infrequent again. i'm spending most of my time with school and work, which also means i don't have much else to talk about besides that. school still keeps me busy, mainly from that one class. work has been slow. we haven't been getting many calls, and i'm thinking that we have to be getting notice soon on when they're letting us go.
ufc 59 saturday night had some good fights, but unfortunately the two biggest matches were a little disappointing. tito ortiz vs. forrest griffin ended up being a really good fight; at first it looked like it was going to be awful as tito spent most of the first round raining elbows down on forrest's face. but forrest somehow survived that and shook off all the rest of tito's takedowns until the very end of the last round. forrest wailed on tito the second round, and the last was split pretty evenly. sadly tito's last takedown at the end probably secured the win for him, as he one by split decision from the judges. forrest griffin really is crazy, and is rapidly becoming another one of my favorite fighters.
andrei arlovski, another favorite of mine, lost his heavyweight title to tim sylvia in the main event. the fight itself was pretty disappoint; i was hoping it would at least last longer than it did. they both came out swinging. arlovski landed a killer hit that knocked sylvia down, but amazingly not out. shortly after that sylvia landed a monster punch of his own on arlovski's jaw, which sent him to the mat. sylvia pounced on him until the referee stopped the fight. it was a sad way to see arlovski lose. but congratulations to sylvia. i don't hate him like i do tito ortiz.
it was nice to see evan tanner and jeff monson get wins. that parisyan looks impressive too, i'd like to see more of him in the future. i hope they come up with a good fight card for ufc 60, because the matt hughes vs. royce gracie headlining match isn't really interesting to me.
