Ok, so I just got back from the weigh ins, as soon as I got there, I got to go backstage and watch the fighters pick the gloves they will be using, the doctor was giving them physicals, and some were still trying to cut. I talked to Mark Dellagrotti, Damacio Page, Duane Ludwig, Yves Edwards, Jeff Curran, Bartimus, Jens Pulver and Urijah. I met Yves Edwards,Markus Hicks, Jose Aldo, Dean Lister, Marc Laimon and some other people too. I asked Jens if he was still gonna fight and he said theyr'e working on finding an opponent for him. He is at 162lbs right now, he talked about the body shot Urijah caught him with, and he said it felt like "a combination of getting his rib poked up into his lung, and getting kicked in the nuts". At some point he went off on a rant about when Tim Sylvia first started training at militich, he said everyone called him bubble gum, because he looked like a round piece bubble gum rolled in hair. He said one time they were rolling and Tim was still new, he didn't know shit on the ground, and Tim somehow took his back and just tried pulling on his head. He said it felt like Tim was trying to just pull his head off. Any ways, he said Pat got pissed and made them stop, but as soon as Jens got up he said he gangster kicked Tim before he could get to his feet. Jens said he would be commentating tommorow because Frank couldnt make it. He said he's rooting for Leonard over Brown. I asked Urijah what he thought about a potential superfight between him and Kid Yamamoto or a rematch with Tyson Griffin. He said He's been calling out Kid for a while, but Kid has a couple fights left in Japan and plus he's dropping to 135lbs, he said he would love a rematch with Tyson, because he said he was injured 8 seconds into his fight with Tyson. Urijah said his fight with Tyson actually took place at an indian casino parking lot. he said 8 soconds into the fight he busted his head open taking down Tyson against the fence (requring 8 staples) and the rest of the fight he dosent remember. He said the same about his fight with Mike Brown. He said to be on the lookout for a fighter he's working with by the name of Chad Mendoza I believe. Jeff Curran said he's getting ready for Benavides (Urijah's teammate), and after that he said he wants to go right after Miguel Torres. He said they're both friends coming from the Chicago area, but he thinks he would "kick Miguels ass" (I don't think it would be as easy as he made it sound). He talked about this time him and jens boxed each other at a bar for 4 rounds, but he didn't say the outcome. I might get to talk to Miguel Torres tommorow. I'l post the pics and more info later. Oh, and nobody wants to fight Jose Aldo, Urijah, Jens, Jeff, they all said that is a bad dude. In my opinion he's a featherweight Anderson Silva. Keep an eye on that dude.
