Agreed
As kids we are taught to “take a knee” and show respect when someone gets injured. I thought it was great that he showed the respect that he did, and I wish more would follow that example.

That’s an edited picture. Did someone combine two of her pics or she really edited that?
w00t!
This is the fight I wanted to see instead of Rizzo. Gonna be a good one! Affliction Trilogy is gonna be the shizz people!

this will be an interesting fight
and should get Yvel across with fans in the US. Paul is tough but totally one-dimensional with the boxing and Yvel’s kicks and power should be trouble for him.
If Yvel beats Buentello he’d be a good acquisition for Strikeforce. He’s virtually the perfect heel.
Yvel-Rogers, Yvel-Sylvia, Yvel-Arlovski and Yvel-Werdum would all be decent matchups. And somehow I don’t think Gilbert ever fought Alistair in PRIDE or RINGS. He fought Alistairs brother 2x but I don’t remember him fighting Alistair. That would be fun too.
