What's That Song?

I just posted the following on my sister's myspace site:

So two of the biggest MMA (mixed martial arts) organizations in the world are UFC (here in the U.S.) and Pride (in Japan). You know the stuff: Guys get into cages and actually beat the hell out of each other.

Not long ago UFC managed to sign one of Pride's most prominent fighers, Mirko Cro Cop. It was considered to be quite a big deal.

Cro Cop's tough as nails, and was thought to be a lock for the UFC heavyweight championship. Still, he had to, you know, fight some competitors first.

So Saturday he did, facing some meatball named Gabriel Gonzaga.

Here's the part where you should pay attention: As Cro Cop walked to the ring, his walk-on music was "Wild Boys" by Duran Duran. Yep. No metal for him... no AC/DC, Helmet, Metallica, Slayer... he went with Duran Duran.

In the first round, Gonzaga kicked Cro Cop in the head, and he went down in a heap. He probably still thinks he's Batman.

The moral: If you listen to Duran Duran, a meatball named Gabriel might kick you in the head.

Posts may be quite scarce for a bit, as I have two big papers to work on this week. Sorry ya'll.
