I didn't catch the rest of the card, but I did catch the main event. Really disappointing. I look forward to every single Anderson Silva fight, and it's just extremely disappointing to see a fight end with someone getting hurt. To those of you who didn't see it, Cote's knee blew out in the third round. He was hoping on his right leg, and when he landed on it, the knee just popped.
Silva looked good. He was constantly moving around...he's the most relaxed fighter I've ever seen. He picked his shots and landed some nice strikes whenever he chose to strike. Cote hung in tough, but I don't think he really mounted any offense at all whatsoever.
It's just unfortunate. My hope is that since Okami is fighting in December, and Cote is going to be out for a while, that they give Anderson a fight in December at LHW (that would make that card EVEN better) or that they give him a fight in January (The Superbowl Saturday Card?). It would suck if we had to wait so long to see him fight again. I hate when guys get hurt. It's the worst thing in MMA.
The next card is Randy-Brock. I am so looking forward to seeing that fight, and I hope that Couture can prevail. Silva and Couture are my two favorite fighters.
