I just got back from Montreal where I saw my buddy Joe Doerksen fight in the UFC. It was a great time, unfortunately Joe didn't win. In a fight where he dominated from the bottom with his strong guard, the judges gave a split decision to his opponent, Dan Miller.
When UFC judges are really Quebec Athletic Commission judges who specialize in judging boxing matches, something is wrong here. They need to better understand how MMA fighting works, and it seems that in this case, they didn't. Simply because Dan Miller was on top of Joe, they thought Miller had the control. Due to Joe's strong guard, Miller didn't have any control whatsoever, and he looked a lot worse for wear than Joe did after the fight.
Hopefully these judges can gain a better understanding of MMA fighting in the future to keep this from happening again.
I generally write about anything that I find interesting. Whether it be about music, politics, or what my day has been like, I find inspiration in all walks of life.

Design Layout
In my electronic publishing class I have certainly been having trouble. I've never been much of an artist or design guy. The project we worked on today is the first one that I'm actually somewhat proud of. Things are starting to catch on and that makes me happy.
