I went to the press conference today and had a chance to interview all of the fighters.  Jason was very impressive, and I have to say, even though Rich is a stud, I like Jason's chances.  He's got the momentum going in to this one having won his last 6 fights and he's faced 2 lefty's out of those 6.  So it won't be awkward for him to face a southpaw in Rich.  Both fighters are hungry, this will be the best fight of the night.

We've got an inside man!

This is sweet!  I think Franklin wants his belt back more, but we will see tomorrow.

Is it just me, or does anybody else out there doubt Herb as a ref sometimes?

Yeah, but this wasn't the fight that made me question him. Did you see something I missed, or did you just think he let Rich beat on him a bit much at the end?  Where I questioned him was in the McFedries fight.  His inability to determine when Drew was out from the triangle choke, then Immediately get Martin off of him was brutal.  By the way, Drew was the biggest disapiontment of the night for me.  I thought he would perform better.  The hitman surprised me.

Oh I been starting to question Herb a few events ago.   Did you see him do the Frank Shamrock and Gracie fight for elite combat?  
I loved the "hitman's" interview with Joe.  That was a brutal arm triangle. :o
