Ultimate Chaos Video Preview
Posted by headkickmania on June 24, 2009
This weekend’s Ultimate Chaos event might not have the most prime and well known fighters in the sport, but it’s still a pretty interesting card with at least two decent fights. The main event is between Japanese celeb and former NFL washout Bob Sapp and former professional wrestler-turned-MMA fighter Bobby Lashley. This fight doesn’t really do anything for each guy, it’s more or less to determine who is really the biggest, toughest black dude in mixed martial arts. My money is on Lashley, he seems to be taking the sport a lot more seriously and he’s actually a personable guy, unlike “The Beast”, who’s just a big joke and a freakshow attraction.
The other fight on here worth mentioning is the Pedro Rizzo/Gilbert Yvel fight. Both guys are coming off losses to Josh Barnett under the Affliction promotion, and the winner of this bout is expected to fight Paul Buentello at Affliction: Trilogy in August. I’m hoping Rizzo wins, as a longtime fan of the guy, I still believe he’s got some fight left in him, and I’d love to see him beat a dangerous striker like Yvel and then get a victory over Buentello. Sad truth is Pedro’s better days are behind him, but I still want to see him find success in the sport, especially over credible, same-skilled opponents.
The above video is actually done pretty well, and although I won’t dish out the $29.99 they’re asking for the Pay-Per-View, I’ll definitely watch a live stream of it on the net. The full fight card can be seen after the jump, with some other well known people in the sport to include Chris Horodecki, Tom Attencio, and Din Thomas.
