So I went to my first MMA fight last night. Interesting to say the least. I must say, they were some of the shortest fights I have ever seen. But Brent Weedman, Louisville's own, didn't do too bad. Especially after all the trouble he had with his past blood clot. He was matched against Jacob (Tick Tock) McClintock last night at the 4th Street Live Bellator season 4 welterweight qualifying match.
Brian Baker (against Horn) also came out on top last night, even after his battle with cancer. The 24 year old had a tough time dealing with his opponents grappling in the beginning but managed to pull through in the second two rounds, busting up Horn's face a little and getting a well deserved unanimous win. These boys just show how we can't let anything keep us down. If you want it you can get it. You just have to want it.
Makovsky and West came out on top and are scheduled to fight on October 14 for the Bellator season 3 Bantamweight tournament. I can't wait till they come back to the Ville and do this again. What an experience.
