-ESPN.com has an excellent story about Round 1 of the battle between the UFC and Affliction. The article can be read here.
-Former UFC champion Dan Severn will be running a wrestling and MMA camp in Manassas, VA. If you live around the area and would like to take part, just call 703-257-8628 and ask for Tim Tibbs.

That ESPN article sucks (which should be expected since its originally a Sherdog piece). How are they even worth comparing? It's a supercard vs. a last-minute "UFC Fight Night". It's just another lame attempt by Sherdog to make the UFC look bad due to spite over getting stripped of credentials to UFC events.

You dustin are a fountain of lies and false hopes. Shame on you and shame to your family.

That was pretty funny :)
And that ESPN article was as biased as they come. Aside from the bias being obvious, it was written by a Sherdog writer.
They don't even get media credentials to UFC events and have stated that they purposely put an anti-UFC bias in their articles.
Sherdog is the Malt Liqour of MMA.
