'Do you have a better explanation?' UFC Fight Night 19 was not a good night for me - not only did I space making picks for our Fightlinker team on MMAPlayground (THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THIS, BY THE WAY), but if I had, I would've blown the shit out of my parlay by including Brock Larson. Impressive in the WEC, only two losses and facing a UFC newcomer? Easy call, right? If you're with me up until now, this is the part where Mike Pierce (10-1) shits all over your parade and impressively beats Larson en route to a lopsided decision. Pierce was 'rewarded' with a fight against Koscheck, tentatively scheduled for the next UFN, but the injury curse that has now fucked up two of Jon Fitch's upcoming matches has smiled on the welterweight prospect: The third time will hopefully be the charm for Jon Fitch (19-3) now that up-and-coming welterweight Mike Pierce (10-1) has agreed to step up and face him at UFC 107 from the FedEx Forum in Memphis, Tenn., on Dec. 12. I'm picking Fitch by murder here - dude's only UFC loss is to Georges St Pierre, and the fact that he was able to breathe on his own after that fight is more than enough for me - but that's making the rather massive assumption that Pierce will actually make it to the cage intact. If I'm Dana (for the record, I'm not), I'm assigning Mike a 24 hour bodyguard, nutritionist, food taster and driver - lest he join Almeida and Alves as casualties of whatever deity has decided to smite Jon Fitch's potential opponents. I would also probably go to Mass, call 1-800-OOPS-JEW, sacrifice some livestock... whatever gets that black cloud away from my four injured/sick/manipulated by Ed Soares champions.  And wouldn't you know, the Papa Shango picture missed it's cue and ruined the finish of the article.  Fitch via what GSP did to him, but this time, he's going to be on the giving end.  Subo is coming through with another good article. Finally.  "[Fitch]'s only loss is to Georges St Pierre" - yet he's 19-3. Granted, his other losses were his first and fourth fights, back in Dec 2002, but for accuracy's sake...  ...so does this mean fitch is going to blow hoo-doo dust (ground up monkey bones) in Pierces face It means Pierce is gonna bleed from under his wig and start projectile vomiting.  It means Pierce is gonna bleed from under his wig and start projectile vomiting.Don't tease me like that, man. Seriously, is that now two Papa Shango references that that have gone over everyone's head?  machiavellian - only UFC loss. I'll edit. Seriously, is that now two Papa Shango references that that have gone over everyone's head? Or no one thought Papa Shango references were funny? ^ I strove for approving nods, not roars of laughter. Nods approvingly.  I see that FL found their new Graphic Designer with that amazing pic.
