Title: UFC 116 - Some pics and experience
Post by: Ron on July 07, 2010, 09:30:51 PM

Well, I have to say that UFC 116 was probably one of the best fight experiences I have been too. Only one that rivals that was UFC 100.  Both events featured great fights and great fighters. And the spirit in the crowd was electrifying.

Here are some pics

Pic 1 - We had great seats. Seriously. On the floor right next to where the fighters come out. About 10 rows from the cage. No, we didnt have to look up at the screens, but when the fighters go down, you wound up to see the action close. It was cool. Clay Guida was a few rows next to us, as was Apolo Ohno the skater, as were Jersey Shore 'actors' as well as many others, including Punkass. We loved our UFC gloves that they gave us - they were cool. Like big bids fist pumping the fighters as they walked down. 

Pic 2 - Brock Lesnar after winning his fight. We were that close and it was awesome. The fight was one of the loudest, standing up only crowd ever.  Unreal.  Yes, we were that close.

Pic 3 - The ring was where we can see it. Being up on the stands is better to watch the action, but being on the floor is just too cool. And for this evening, all of the drinks we got were free. Nice.

Pic 4 - Ok, Chuck Lidell walks on by too, but I gotta get a pic with his girl Heidi. Just couldnt help it. She was cool.

It is very humble of Ron to attend a UFC event after losing his first fight in 10 years.

Cool pics Ron. 

That pic of Lesnar is awesome.  Must've been quite a spectacle in person.

UFC 116 was a geat experience. I have been to a few of these fights, and it matters who you go with, where you sit, and what kind of fights there are.  For UFC 116, in Vegas, I had good friends whom were just as excited to be there.  Also, the level of electricity in the crowd was great, and just the entire hype an spectacle lived up to it.

The music, the thumping of the floor, the people around - the vibe was flowing there. 

It doesnt happen in others fights - UFC 104 (I think in Los Angeles) was just so-so.
