I have to believe Couture was dead after his last fights...thats the only logical reason i could think of why he is stalling so much. I think he's too old and his training and recovery times are huge compared to younger fighters.
Never seen Babalu fight (i'm sure I've seen some online, but u know....) but I LOVED IFL Battleground the 1st season it was on MyNetworkTV, and Mike Whitehead is on tough SOB.
Trying to get my buddy w/ cable to order the PPV fight so we can watch one show upstairs on ppv and the UFC fights on spike in teh basement.
