I'm a little sad these days. Gabriel Gonzaga was cut from the UFC. Kind of sucks. I know that he could never beat the top guys in the heavyweight division and yeah he may always be remembered for his head kick KO victory over Mirko Cro-Cop ( which I saw when the event was airing live and it was crazy) But I've seen many of the fights that he won and they may have been against lesser competition, but he was always exciting. I like his submission wins against Justin Mccully and Carmelo Marrero in particular. I know that he should have used his BJJ more in his fights, but his hands are good. He rocked Shane Carwin before getting knocked out himself. I don't know. I just hope that he gets picked up by Strikeforce or some other promotion and show off his skills there because I know that he has them. Maybe he'll be able to get back in the UFC someday and win the championship. I will always believe in Gabriel Gonzaga. Always.
One of Gonzaga's Early Fights:
Gabriel Gonzaga Vs. Branden Lee Hinkle
Also the UFC and the WEC are merging. I'm kind of upset about that too. WEC events are always free and now that it won't be around anymore I would have to buy the pay per view. The WEC always puts on great cards and it sucks I won't see them anymore. Plus many UFC fighters will be cut to make room for the WEC fighters and vice versa. They should have just kept them seperate. Oh well.
