I didn't watch the fight live, but I'm actually really glad that I didn't. I haven't even had the nerve to watch a video of what took place. But what I heard a couple of days after the fight about the extent of the cut on Diego's forehead or the nature of the fight were not what I expected. We all know how much I love Diego Sanchez, so this was not the outcome I had obviously hoped for. Here are the texts I got the night of the fight that started to get me excited and then shoved me into the "please let sleep come" mood.
Text 1: They're comin down to the octagon right now. Pretty excited.
Text 2: Penn easily won the first round. Sanchez almost got knocked out in the first thirty secs.
Text 3: Round 2 was close...Penn probably won it though.
Text 4: Round 3 and 4 were pretty close...could go either way.
Text 5: Penn wins by KO in fifth round...Sanchez had a cut on his head that was gross. Good fight though.
And here are the images that I can't get out of my head...
And this one to make me feel better...
I am not a big UFC fan. We know this. However, I would have liked to have seen this one because I like the bloody ones. I may have to watch a video it now. Sorry your man lost, but at least he lost while fighing hard.
ReplyDeleteThis is true. I guess I would have liked to have seen it just because I know the effort put forth by both would have been awesome. Oh well...
