UFC 101 - DECLARATION

Yesterday Jay went to UFC 101 with Scott Godfrey, Mike Dennis and Mike Dennis’s Dad, Mick. Jay had to wait 3 months since he won the tickets from WMMR to attend the event, but it was well worth it!
They got to the Wachovia Center a bit early and had to wait until the doors opened.

The pay per view did not go live until 10:00pm, but once inside, it was electric for the preliminary fights which started around 8:00pm.

Jay really liked watching Amir Sadollah on the Ultimate Fighter reality show, but in his fight verses Johny Hendricks, he got annihilated.

The fight between Anderson Silva and Forrest Griffin was awesome. It only lasted a few minutes in the first round. After Forrest Griffin ate some of Anderson Silva's fists, Forrest Griffin got knocked out with what looked like light punch. Forrest Griffin got up and ran out of the octogon. Initially the crowd at the Wachovia Center booed Anderson Silva when he entered into the ocotgon, but after he knocked out Forrest Griffin with ease, he jumped up on the ocotgon and the crowd cheered lowdly.

The second main event was a championship fight between BJ Penn and Kenny Florian. Kenny Florian really wanted to kill BJ Penn, but in the fourth round, BJ Penn submitted Kenny Florian with a rear naked choke.

The video clip below is when Forrest Griffin entered into the octogon...JUST CRAZY!

What an awesome night for Jay's first ever UFC event!
