I have heard that Serra was...Overall, a good card. I have heard that Serra was verbally submitting and that was why the ref stopped that fight.<BR/><BR/>I had also read about Starnes', and remember that injury when it happened (a deep gash on his head that stopped his fight against Belcher). What I hadn't heard is that he "threw" the fight. No matter how you look at it, he stunk in that fight, but it's one thing to throw the fight and another to be reluctant to engage because you don't want to get hurt. <BR/><BR/>The IFL has been teetering on the brink since the beginning. It's a terrific idea that just hasn't yet caught on. I like the team concept, the salaries, the medical insurance for the fighters. <BR/><BR/>I'm curious, with all of these big promotions on the brink, what Affliction is going to do differently to compete with the UFC.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10085160494038535606noreply@blogger.com
