I've been watching. Ben Askren is in a final in a week or two against a pretty tough looking guy with a funny name. |

Askren has his Championship fight tonight against Dan Hornbuckle - or something like that. Cole Conrad is also on the fight card. |

Why? He just won far more money in that than he will in a year wrestling. Did Konrad look better than his first one? Or did he just lay on him? |

Why would he do that? His win over Hornbuckle puts him among the top 10-15 welterweights in the world only a year after going pro. In a year when his contract is up he could make some big noise in the UFC. |

I can see it now: "Fighting out of the blue corner- This man is a wrestler with a professional record of six wins with zero losses. He stands 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighed in at 170 pounds. Fighting out of Tempe, Arizona.... BEN "Koscheck 2.0" ASKREN!" |

Bellator's third season started last night. Cole Konrad is in the heavyweight tournament and fights next week. The thing I don't like about Bellator is that it always follows the Twins game on FSC, so the start time is never predictable and it's difficult for me to get on my DVR. |

I did not realize these fights were on last night. Sounds like Cole did well: http://mmajunkie.com/news/20359/bellator-25-recap-konrad-grabowski-and-frausto-advance-with-decisions.mma The main event saw Konrad do what he does best. The two-time NCAA wrestling champion used his superior grappling abilities to ground opponent Rogent Lloret for much of the 15-minute contest and allowed very little room for a counterattack. With six submission wins to his credit, Lloret was considered a viable threat from his back, but the openings simply never materialized. Konrad's (5-0 MMA, 3-0 BFC) top game proved effective once again, and the undefeated heavyweight netted his third-straight decision win in a largely uneventful affair. Meanwhile, Lloret (9-2-1 MMA, 0-1 BFC) sees an eight-fight win streak snapped. |

I wish there was more about this in the media... I hate not knowing when this crap happens. I don't watch the Twins either, so I'm basically effed. I was browsing through channels and found it, but missed the Konrad fight. It sounds like it was a lay-n-pray sorta deal? I wish Cole nothing but the best. I'm glad he found a future in this sport... kinda setting that example that other former wrestlers have... I like it. Iron Chef America was alright though. :-/ |

Well, I think Konrad is about to get taken apart next time out. He's taking on Damian Grabowski who I think is a lot better fighter. |

Cole dominated and advanced to the finals. 3 rounds of "wrestling" kept the more powerful opponent from hurting him. It was a 30-26, 30-27, 30-27 decision. Actually, the last round was a bit more even. The fight was in Milwaukee, WI. He'll also have his work cut out for him in the finals. They said Oct, but I didn't catch the exact date. I believe they said it was to be in Kansas City. His opponent is from the UK. |
