Those guys were making their ufc debuts and they got 16,000 to win, say for example cole fights 4 times this yr and wins them all (maybe not likely but it could happen) multiply 16,000 by 4 and you get 64,000. Add any bonus money he makes on to that and thats a pretty decent living.[/quote] yes but out of that 64k are many expenses and also fed tax thats a crappy amount of pay cause he maybe keeps 2k a month probably less, my bet is diaz brothers still live with mom and dad.

Hironaka looks to have a solid chin though, he got nailed by so many shots square in the jaw, I think the numerous leg kicks that he ate definately slowed him down! Props to Alves!!

He is extemely talented, especially for being 21. He said he has been training strictly BJJ for years, I wonder how many - he's not very old. I only found 1 other fight of his. Its funny too because after watching him vs Goulet, I was wondering how is striking is. Appearantly, its pretty decent, just ask Chad Reiner! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imOxcUtq2_Y[/quote] Bad camera work on that, barely saw the KO punch, but sweet. I wonder what the official time of that fight was. [quote comment="153942"]I REALLY want to see more of this Dustin Hazelett kid. He is extemely talented, especially for being 21.

Crocata gets introduced from his corner while wearing a beaten up straw cowboy hat, and he stomps his fight like a bull. If you like the bull-like footstomps, then keep watching. He appearantly like to take the center of the octagon and stomp his fight like a bull, or to try and cause it to rain in doors. Wierd dude. Then like 20 seconds into the fight, he starts to see ghosts, and he literally waves to a person that isn't there. Then he counters a Cummo punch "with a right hand and a scary face". Then he reaches in the air with each of his hands like 4 times, like he is tyring to catch invisible butterflies, or fireflies. Then he gets rocked and hears a ghost talking to him. So instead of paying attention to the person trying to knock his head off, he keeps looking at his newly found friend, Casper, and then gets knocked out. This is one of the strangest fights I've ever seen. And here it is: http://www.dailymotion.com/relevance/search/luke cummo/video/x30t9n_edilberto-crocota-vs-luke-cummo-ufn_extreme[/quote] Are u kidding? Im gonna have to watch that fight. Sounds entertaining. By the way Luke is a better fighter then he gets credit for, he is only 26 or 27 years old, the guy has a great work ethic, he has a great diet (although the urine therapy is a little extreme), he is an intelligent dude, with crisp Muy Tai, and always improving ju jitsu. Cummo is like Florian, a talented Nerd, with a warrior spirit. You gotta respect that! [quote comment="153926"]I just watched the Cummo/Crocata fight, and I’m STILL laughing.
