His opponent, Johnny Bedford, styles himself the p4p "TBE" of bare-knuckle. ...at 5-0, with Dat probably his best competition to date by a country mile.
...btw, @UnleashtheFURY, in the co-main event starting in just a minute here Chris Leben's ancient looking ass is fighting.
Watching. Inspirational how Leben got his life together. I'll always be a fan. I don't like BKB much but a crude brawler like Leben is right at home here.
..did I hear that right? Quentin 'The He-Wolf' Henry? That is the gayest thing to come out of Louisiana since Truman C.
Honestly my last memory of him was the Bisping disappointment. (really wanted to see that obnoxious twit Brit get KTFO)
"That second punch (that caused the knockdown) really doesn't even look all that powerful, but there you go.." This commentator DKSAB. The straight right shook Henry up, sure, but that was a short left hook on the button with the full torque of Leben's hips on it. Of course that was the shot that finished him.
Leben got sent to the can from some drug related stuff. But since hes been clean, came out with a book, became a lisenced referee, a father etc. Doesn't usually end well for guys like him but he got his act together and is now giving back. Huge respect.
Nguyen is going to have a very easy night here. There's some guys in the UFC at 135-145 who might give him a run for his money but Bedford(former UFC fighter) is not one of them.
I see he stopped Krazy Horse on a hand injury last time in BKFC. Did he get lucky there is or Bennett shot to hell nowadays?
Hey cool the ring announcer actually knows how to pronounce "Nguyen" (hint for all you round-eyes, it isn't two syllables. It's hard for us to formulate but a close approximate would be "Ghweng" except with the G borderline silent, just a hint of it like you're holding a marble in place with your upper esophagus. I've recently been re-learning my rusty old Vietnamese accent to impress a cute girl at work )
