im really in 2 minds about cage rage, was looking about how i coul buy tickets, order flights etc... id be looking ~ £400 quid time i was through i reckon, would need a 2 day stay at £60 per night hotel, i would always try and get the best seats so id be looking at like £175 a ticket or something crazy like that. plus my frieneds wouldnt go so id be like myself there.

cagewarriors 9 is in glasgow 5 days before my birthday, so might take a trip through there instead. no big names but good action.

if UFC came to england id definatly go.

You could get yourself some £100 tickets which are still gonna be good seats, maybe save some money by catching a train rather than flights?

Or like you say, just go to Cagewarriors

Hmm.. sounds like a good card. How\'d you Brits get Vitor \'Shaolin\'.. we have been wantin him for ages in the states! Did you bribe him with blood pudding?

Shaolin's been fighting over here for a while now, I think his first UK show was Cage Rage 12 or 13. He's actually the Cage Rage Lightweight champ at the moment. He wasnt keen on black pudding, so we offered him endless tea and scones instead and he gave in

He's actually fought in the states a few times now, he fought in some of the original WFA shows (the first fight I ever saw of his was when he destroyed Charlie Kohler with elbows) and he fought Ivan Menjivar in another smaller show over there.

Im really surprised he hasnt been picked up by either of the big shows, I think he could easily take the titles in either UFC or Pride.
