Two things
1: Chic fight!!!
2: Someone definitely yelled “Kick his ass, seabass!” at the beginning, and thus receives my virtual high-five.

Really unprofessional of Joe to mention this fact. When you’re trying to bring legitimacy to the sport, the last thing you want to do is return to it’s early beginnings.
Joe also fails to realize the ramifications of his words and in the process may be responsible for chasing the casual fans or women away with this mention.
Bottomline, as a professional, he should only be focusing on the two combatants in the octagon.
Joe is a pothead comedian what do you expect of him?
No fan in the universe is going to say “I really enjoy watching men fight in a cage, but the announcer drew attention to a fight in the stands during a dull fight so now I don’t watch UFC anymore.”
Keep firing Assholes!
Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead.

lol @ Joe and any sort of professionalism. I would go so farto say that most of his appeal is lack of professionalism.
Damn, all he did during the Florian fight was expound about BJ looking tired, inevitably running out of gas, over training and how Florian was wearing him down. Then, in the post fight, talked about how the new conditioning worked so well. Annoying, but it just what you get from these guys to go along with the good sides.

Yeah, because this is the first time that a fight broke out in the stands at a UFC event, get over yourself
You’re right, what was I THINKING? Philadelphia is known around the world as a city of sophisticated, intelligent people. My bad.
Walla, walla, walla, I'm an idiot.

The best part was the 20 people who had floor seats jumping up and waiving their hands to be on camera throughout the fights.

the security staff didnt seem all that interested in getting in the middle of all that to break it up. For any of you who have had the unfortunate experience of attending a sporting event in Philly know how ridiculous the fans are there. There’s no disputing the insane behavior of Philly fans. and yes i’m sure there have been fights at other UFC events, but Philly is the only place where it’s a guarantee.
There might be some fights at UFC events, but believe me, there must be staggering amounts more afterwards. Everyone leaves hyped up and thinking they can fight…and they’re drunk.
Thats why I love being a good shit talker, unless you’re fucking with someone who is obviously going to fight, no matter what, you can make the other guy look stupid and he’ll either get angry and fight (bad idea for him) or he’ll just walk away because he got clowned.

half these comments in here are pretty funny. We have no idea what happend before this incident, and maybe there is a vwery good reason why there was a fight. My first thought was the deuche with the sunglasses in the beginning of the video was not completely innocent. i was on the opposite side of the arena, but all the floor seats (everybody but Randy from what i could see) turned around to see the fight in the crowd.
Must be an EliteXC event — the female fighters are the best of the bunch.

That was strikeforce marketing at it's best
those bastards are doing whatever it takes to take the UFC down
