please tell me Eric Martindale has at least been training some grappling these days. No offense to the fellow, but I have seen him lose three fights all the same way, and all those losses would have been avoidable with 9-12 months of intense BJJ training.

Event, Matches seemed fairly well made (MMA, Didnt get to see much boxing as I had to get on home)
Start time.....started late, which led me to not seeing all of the event.
Ring card girls.....Strippers? WTF? Sort of alienating potential fans IMO by having strippers as ring card girls.
Also, though I dont know him, but what I am about to say is 100% for his own good. Tell Eric Martindale to train for 6-8 months and DO NOT FIGHT during that time. He is killing himself mentally by continuously fighting and being not truly prepared. And I dont mean just technically prepared, when you lose a few times in a row it takes time to recover mentally, he needs that time.

doc came late and was taking forever with the prefight physicals. The last boxing match didn't start till about 12. So, we prob had too many fights as well.

I assumed it was a late doc, COMPLAIN, loudly to the commission about this. Those guys seem to think the events run on their clocks, they are there to facilitate commerce, not interrupt it. Remind them of this.
