LW: Maximo "Makishi" Blanco (2-1-1) vs. Akihiko Mori (6-6-1)
Round 1: Maxi ties up and shoots knees from the clinch immediately, backs Mori into the corner and takes him down with ease into full guard. Mori nearly snares an armbar but Blanco rolls out. Mori on all fours now with Blanco on his side, bombing what look like pretty solid shots to Mori's face but Mori seems fine as the ref stands them up. Blanco's nose is bleeding and gets cleaned up in the corner before they restart. Blanco connects with a big shot and follows with a right foot stomp to Mori's head that barely misses. Blanco pounds away from the top for a moment before deciding to back out. Mori winging huge looping shots that don't connect. Blanco rushes in with a flying knee and eats a fist for his trouble. Spinning back kick connects for Blanco to Mori's midsection. Blanco collapses Mori with a big right hook but tries to finish the fight with an illegal soccer kick. In an eerily familiar scene, Blanco jumps on the turnbuckle to celebrate and the ref motions for him to come down. Mori is still wide-eyed but conscious on the canvas and the doctors are attending to him. The ref is waving the fight off now and Blanco does a celebratory backflip which I think may be premature. The ref gets on the mic and announces that Mori wanted to continue but could not due to the kick. He's awarded the win on a disqualification. Blanco's wildness continues to cause him major problems in this early stage of his career.
Akihiko Mori def. Maximo Blanco via DQ (Illegal Soccer Kick) at 4:20 of Round 1
LHW: Travis Wiuff (54-12) vs. Stanislav Nedkov (5-0)
Round 1: Wiuff rushes in to clinch early and tosses Nedkov, who bounces right back up. Nedkov shoots a low knee from the clinch and Wiuff takes 30 seconds to recover. Now Nedkov clinches with overhooks, but the bigger Wiuff bullies him into the corner and Nedkov low-blows him again. They're restarted... and they clinch once more in the corner. Nedkov knees him in the pills yet again, and this time Wiuff lets out a scream and falls to the canvas. After a few minutes on his back, Wiuff rises to his feet to a roar from the crowd. Stanislav Nedkov is issued a red card, which is a one point deduction. After some more clinching against the post, Nedkov throws another knee which elicits a yelp from Wiuff. Nedkov throws his arms up, then looks at Wiuff and smiles wryly, wagging his finger - it sounds like he says "my friend, no!" A replay shows this shot connected just as hard as the last. Nedkov is issued a second red card. A third will be a DQ. One minute left in this drawn-out round. Nedkov swinging away wildly, one shot appears to catch Wiuff and "Diesel" pulls guard. Nedkov closes out the round throwing body shots from guard which is not gonna win him this fight.

Round 2: Wiuff scores a takedown and smothers Nedkov while raining hammerfists. The fighters are stood up and Nedkov complains to shots to the back of the head. The ref isn't having it. Nedkov connects with a right which doesn't faze Wiuff. Travis back on top, controlling the head and neck of Nedkov as the Bulgarian ties up his forearms.
BloodyElbow.com scores the round 10-9 Wiuff
Round 3: Nedkov blasts Wiuff with a right hand that sends the veteran's head swiveling, then pounds away with hammerfists as a dazed Wiuff tries to escape punishment under the bottom rope. The ref finally sees enough and steps in. What an ugly win. After the fight, Nedkov slumps against the ropes and thanks God for a beautiful victory. Ugh.
Stanislav Nedkov def. Travis Wiuff via TKO (Punches) at 0:42 of Round 1
WW: Makoto Takimoto (4-5) vs. Michael Costa (9-4)
Round 1: Costa slapping away with leg kicks, then a high kick followed by a flying knee and Costa pulls guard. Takimoto escapes a dangerous guillotine and moves to side control. Unable to get off any shots from the top, Takimoto transitions to an armbar but Costa rolls out and now both are looking for heel hooks. Costa looks to have the better position, but Takimoto switches from an inverted to a standard heel hook and forces Costa to tap immediately. The Olympian brings his record to .500 with an impressive first round win. Afterwards, Takimoto says he did not expect to win this fight and even considered retirement.
Makoto Takimoto def. Michael Costa via Submission (Heel Hook) at 3:31 of Round 1
FWGP: Marlon Sandro (13-0) vs. Nick Denis (7-0)
Round 1: Sandro drops Denis with one shot, a devastating lead right uppercut. The half-dozen strikes on the floor afterward are academic as the Canadian is out cold and stiff-limbed on his back.
Marlon Sandro def. Nick Denis via KO (Punches) at 0:19 of Round 1
FWGP: Masanori Kanehara (12-5-5) vs. Chan Sung Jung (3-0)
Round 1: After exchanging leg kicks early, Kanehara charges in for a takedown and begins pummeling the body of Jung. The Korean looks to isolate Kanehara's left arm as Kanehara tries to pass, keeping him close and lessening the impact of shots from the top. Kanehara in half guard now, trying to extract his left leg, but Jung has him tied up and the ref stands them, warning Jung for stalling. Kanehara shoots again but Jung sprawls into the ropes and hits a nice knee to the body. Kanehara completes the takedown with a minute left, backs out in an attempt to improve position but eats some upkicks and heels to the head from Jung, who then sweeps and stands. Kanehara slugs Jung with a left as the Zombie charges forward to end the round.

Round 2: Both men eat big shots in a wild exchange to open the frame, followed closely by another Kanehara takedown. Jung nearly reverses and tries briefly for an omoplata, but Kanehara is back to guard. Jung grabs an arm and attempts to straighten out an armbar, but Kanehara's hands are clasped firmly. Jung breaks them apart, but Kanehara rolls with it and escapes! Great stuff. Back in guard, Kanehara drops back for a toehold with :40 left, allowing Jung to regain his footing. Kanehara forcing Jung to sprawl into the ropes but Jung won't close out the round that way and gets mount with just seconds left. Kanehara sweeps and straightens out a heel hook, but it's too late and Jung doesn't even attempt to escape before the bell rings.
BloodyElbow.com scores the round 10-9 Jung
Round 3: Jung misses and slips on a kick and Kanehara pounces into guard, then side mount. Knees to the head of Jung make him improve his position and Kanehara is back in full guard. Jung cracking Kanehara in the back of the head with his heel, then smashes the Japanese fighter in the jaw with a knee as he tries to stand. Back on the feet, Jung lands another knee and a gassed Kanehara can only turtle after a weak takedown attempt. Jung on top now, stands above Kanehara and eats a partially blocked upkick to the grill. Jung lunges forward with a right-left combo to Kanehara, followed by a stomp.

Masanori Kanehara def. Chan Sung Jung via Unanimous Decision (30-29, 30-29, 29-28)
LHW: Xande Ribeiro (1-0) vs. Keiichiro Yamamiya (34-23-9)
Round 1:After a minute of feeling out, Xande shoots low and grabs a single leg. Kei sprawls well in the corner but Ribeiro won't relent and the ref restarts them in the center with 3:00 to go in the frame. Xande winging shots that don't land flush, but grabs a waistlock this time and takes Yamamiya down with ease. Xande passes from half guard to full mount with two minute left and begins punishing Yamamiya with right hands. Kei covers up and they're restarted in the center with Xande in mount. Yamamiya rolls and Xande takes his back immediately, softening him up with heels to the inner thigh. 0:30 remaining. Xande gets off Kei's back and transitions to an armbar on the Japanese fighter's left arm. The BJJ expert straightens the hold, but Yamamiya somehow hangs in until the bell sounds.
BloodyElbow.com scores the round 10-8 Ribeiro
Round 2: Xande bullying Kei again to begin the round, backing him into the corner. Yamamiya is actually showing some offense this round, though, landing a few knees and attempting a takedown which doesn't go anywhere. Ribeiro far less active now, just covering up as Kei moves forward with standing shots to the head. Xande's hands are down, winging shots from the hips. Yamamiya winding up the left hand, but Xande responds with a kick. Kei with a flying knee, but Xande catches him in mid-air, takes him down and mounts him with just seconds left.
BloodyElbow.com scores the round 10-9 Yamamiya
Round 3: Both men have to know they need this round, and both look spent as it begins, but they exchange solid blows nonetheless. Yamamiya jumps forward with a pawing right, but but Ribeiro answers with a devastating right hook of his own which ends the Japanese veteran's night. The ref pulls the Brazilian off his downed opponent after a follow-up shot on the mat.
Xande Ribeiro def. Keiichiro Yamamiya via KO (Punch) at 2:20 of Round 1
LW: Kazunori Yokota (8-2-3) vs. Leonardo Santos (6-2)
Round 1: Slapping leg kicks from Yokota, who tries to stay out of the lanky Brazilian's range. Santos drags him down and immediately moves to mount, who gives up his back, then escapes only to relenquish it again a moment later. Yokota keeping Santos' hands tied up, then sweeps impressively into Santos' full guard. Minimal shots from the top by Yokota, but the ref shouts for action as Santos is keeping the distance tight. Yokota postures up and dives back into the same position, and the fighters are dragged away from the ropes, eating up 20-25 seconds of the last minute. The round ends with Yokota in open guard, blasting away with right hands. The clock is off the screen, but seems the round should be over by now, yet the bell isn't ringing. Yokota is looking up at the ref to say as much, and finally it ends.
BloodyElbow.com scores the round 10-9 Yokota
Round 2: A hard knee to the body of Yokota from Santos begins the second, but Santos soon finds himself under Yokota again. Yokota moving between half and full guard as Santos grabs for an arm. Yokota stacks Santos up and delivers two left knees to the head, then tries to pin Santos' arm under a knee but Santos ties up. Santos escapes out the back and gets mount in the corner, but Yokota's head is through the ropes. They're repositioned and Santos gets active with punches from the top. Yokota gives up his back and Santos sneaks hard punches under the armpits. Yokota sweeps to full guard with 30 seconds left, trying to tag Santos with short punches but he's audibly winded.
BloodyElbow.com scores the round 10-9 Yokota
Round 3: A right head kick and right straight from Santos frustrates Yokota, who clinches against the ropes. Yokota trying to drag Santos down, to no avail, and Santos reverses him into the post. Yokota chopping away with more leg kicks, but eating rights as he digs in for them. Quick takedown by Santos, who lands in half guard, moves to mount, then nearly takes the back of Yokota. Santos tries to soften him up with some shots, and the ref warns him of hitting to the back of the head. One minute left and Yokota sweeps into full guard. Another 10-15 seconds eaten off the clock as Santos' head is between the ropes. Santos keeping active from the bottom with punches, but both men are beat and there isn't much on them. This one goes to the judges.

Kazunori Yokota def. Leonardo Santos via Split Decision (30-29 Yokota x 2, 29-28 Santos)
FWGP: Michihiro Omigawa (5-7-1) vs. Nam Phan (15-5)
Round 1: Phan pawing with jabs, but Omigawa shoots underneath and drags him down. Phan looks for a heel hook, Omigawa for a guillotine but neither come to fruition. Back on the feet, Omigawa is fighting like a man posessed, absolutely teeing off on Phan with both hands blazing. Another takedown and Omigawa is clearly too much for Phan to handle, though the American is defending well. Omigawa pounds away and the ref steps in, but the replay shows that it was a premature stoppages. Still, I didn't see Phan complaining.
Michihiro Omigawa def. Nam Phan via TKO (Punches) at 4:52 of Round 1
FWGP: Hatsu Hioki (18-3-2) vs. Ronnie Mann (16-1-1)
Round 1: Hioki hits an early takedown and is immediately in side control. Mann working back to his feet, latching on to the left leg of Hioki underneath. Hioki puts Mann on his back again and starts working for an anaconda choke. Hioki gives it up and takes mount, sets up a triangle and slides under Mann. Hioki pounding away at the unprotected face of Mann with left hands. Mann is still conscious but simply not responding as Hioki continues to blast him. The ref puts an end to it and Mann does not disagree. Another impressive win for the tournament's poster boy.
Hatsu Hioki def. Ronnie Mann via TKO (Strikes) at 3:09 of Round 1

Off topic, re: a previous liveblog discussion, I’ve totally come around on the new Mastodon.
“Oblivion” is sort of the jam, the chorus gets in my brain for days. “The Czar,” too.
Awesome, kick-ass album! & Blackout, Kylesa is great – thanks for the rec!

That’s the one I got – it’s great (though I’d put Dylan’s new album at #1). I miss damn solid metal like that – there’s too much black metal influences where the theatric take the place of the music.

Damn, Dylan's new one is that good?
I know I’m getting old because I’m listening more and more to new albums by artists who are definitely past their primes. (Got the new Jarvis Cocker and Sonic Youth queued up.) Q Magazine subscription, here I come!
I love his new material – it’s an older sound, more in line with his original influences. It has the world-weariness of someone his age, but frequently funny. I am a Dylan mark, though, so I’m biased.

If you dig those, you’ll love everything else they’ve done. The lost their singer after Calculating Infinity, but the new guy is arguably better. They were more palatable with Miss Machine, but got heavier again on Ire Works (which still doesn’t approach Calculating Infinity). Miss Machine was actually another album, like Crack the Skye, that bothered me by softening up, but it really grew on me.
I poop rainbows.
That abstract cover art is soo cool – like Hipgnosis’s art for Pink Floyd. Miss Machine was a bit too intense for me, but the rest is great – and they make Justin Timberlake bearable.

Oblivion is amazing
I was on to that track from the get go. The rest of it is good too, yes. But I’m still with the idea that it isn’t really Mastadon to me. It’s still quality material, though, for sure..

They’re guaranteed to make at least one more album – the element “air” – so I have no idea what it’ll sound like.

That is a win right now. I was introduced to Gary Numan by the the Foo Fighters’ version of that song on the X-Files soundtrack.

Brent-
This seems as good an opportunity as any to ask if you saw that amazing Bulls game last night. This might be the best playoff series I’ve ever seen. That 3rd OT was mind blowing.
I poop rainbows.
It's cool, we shall overcome.
Even if the Celts get swept by the Cavs, we will have witnessed the greatest non-finals series EVAH.
Speaking as a Raptors fan, I hate you. Garnett is out and suddenly we learn that Boston has two top 25 big men in Perkins AND Davis.
It’ll be interesting to see which coach can out-dumb the other one in game 7. Will Del Negro continue to run the wrong play off of every inbounds and last second opportunity? Will Doc Rivers throw a stone cold Tony Allen out there and take Big Baby out again even if he is on fire?
I don’t know which is a bigger antidote to the Perk-Baby awesomeness – Doc’s bizarre decision making, Rondo’s fadeaway jumpers, or the chalky, contused horror which is Brian Scalabrine.
Rondo missed those FTs in the 4th. Then, he decided to go for one of his pathetic fadeaways the very next play. And finally, in the 3rd OT, he decided to use the back-to-back possession fail again to close out the game. I hate him. He needs to not fail again.
Ahhhhh! Stop it, stop it!! I had successfully avoided any and all highlights/discussion of that game since last night.
The Night Crew is supposed to bring bleary-eyed happiness. =(

Is this the Best Playoff Series?
Coaching Blunders, Awful Shot Clock Management, Throwing up wild 3’s, The Best player in the series is on the Bench, Perice doesn’t show up until the 4th Qrt, and Davis missing Defensive assingments and not being able to put in easy lay ups. Now is it the Most EXCITING Playoff Series? YES. Put from a pure basketball standpoint it is not as enjoyable. When the Celts were at there best they ran the Bulls out in Game 2
Most Entertaining=Best
I’m not even a Bulls fan and I’ll tell you how ridiculous it is to say that if the Celts show up they win. Allen just put up 50+ in a losing effort and Big Baby was hitting fade aways.
I poop rainbows.
Perice looked EXtremely sluglish the whole game and RR was like 4 of 20. they didn’t show up. Although Rose has done an amazing job defending RR 1 on 1 by not letting him getting penetration. But perice has not excuse, I think he has an injury he isn’t tell anyone about

I dont know how they didnt give the last round 10-9 to Jung, it was fairly one sided i thought.
The second round was close as he nearly finished that armbar and Kanehara didnt do much else and the first round was pretty clear to Kanehara.
Ah well, Sandro is now my pick for the tournament.
I had it 29-28 Kanehara, so yeah, Jung won last round IMO

Santos sucks… Like, seriously sucks.
I'm pretty pissed
I kept hearing that this kid had some awesome ground skills. He can’t even throw up an armbar without loading for a good thirty seconds.
All three of them.

blatant lie
nam phan has NEVER fought in the UFC
For those who missed it...
At the presser yesterday, Phan said he wants to tap Omigawa with a “Kadowaki Special.” Phan KO’d Kadowaki in the first round, but is a big fan of his and wants to do this as a tribute. His signature submission is a modified RNC from the crucifix position.
I’ve never seen that RNC you’re talking about, but I really want to. It sounds nifty.

He is finally fightting at his proper weight and getting a little motavation after people counting him out all the time doesn’t hurt
He’s really a beast at 145, this could present big problems.

I can't believe there are people sleeping now
This is the MAIN EVENT. And it’s HIOKI..
exciting stuff man..
Hioki is awesome
He’s like an inferior, male version of Aoki.
Get it. He-oki.
Aoki is a sexless god. Hioki is the counterpart male deity.
If Aoki is god, then Mach is Nietzsche.

Awesome card tonight
I really enjoyed it.
I would have loved to comment further, but my cable company thinks I’m bad for watching the Korean feed of the event, even though they can’t be arsed into picking up HDNet even if you begged them.
So goodnight everyone and Fuck You Charter.

Some great finishes, a FotY candidate (Kanehara vs. Jung), lots of really technical grappling and one guy getting KTFO by a soccer kick. Sen-goo-ku delivers.
