Well, that was interesting and the best way to start a UFC event. Im on my toes now and wide-awake, aint going bed anytime soon.

Edit: Nik, I was watching TV so couldnt hear well but he started it normally then it SOUNDED like: YOU SUCK, YOU ************* SUCK. It probably wasn't, but it was something that shouldnt have been said
