I like to go watch the local guys fight. Every now and then you are able to catch a glimpse of a fighter before they go to Bellator or UFC. We have some good training camps out here for guys (team wildman, grudge, ect), and some good venues to watch them at (ring of fire, fight to win, rmbb). The two local guys to watch right now are Brandon Thatch and Josh Cavan. Both have great potential. Word on the street is that Thatch is headed to the UFC after his last first round victory in ROF 41. Cavan will still be doing local fights for a year more before they bring him up. Tickets for these events are pretty inexpnsive and every now and they you can catch a really good fight.

where are the local fight at around here

Ring of fire takes place at the Broomfield events center, fight to win takes place at the national western complex, then there is a venue at te red lion hotel in the northfield/stapleton area. Red and jerrys in littleton has them and I have also gone to a fight at some arena in Colorado springs. The major local fight promotors are ring of fire, fight to win, rocky mountain bad boys, and I think full force fighting. I know that there is one that I am forgetting though.

The next fight that I am going to is fight to win : zombies. It is at the western national complex on Oct 21st. I am good friends with the guy fighting in the main event and if anyone needs tickets I can get them at face (no surcharge fees tacked on). PM me if you are interested. FYI they do pat downs at the door so leave your piece in the car or wear an ankle holster.

Broomfield event center has Ring of Fire. The best fight I've ever seen was at a Ring of Fire event. I wish it was on video.

The first UFC fight I ever saw was Randy Coture vs. Tim Silva. I've seen pretty much every fight since then, up until December of 2010 when I started working weekends. My lady got the fights last night, but by the time I got home, I only saw Jamboun vs. the guy with the trout on his back. I missed every single fight that I wanted to see.

One would think as a fighter and trainer in the local area you might know the answer to this one without having to ask. Just saying.

UFC 134 was full of great fights.

One of the best fights I've seen was at WEC 51 at the Budweiser Event Center in Broomfield... around October or so last year. The championship fight was a bit of a letdown, but the other big name fight on the card was Donald Cerrone vs Jamie Varner (the two hate each other, makes for great entertainment). Cerrone kicked the shit out of Varner... at one point he gave him a running knee to the face. The fact that it was a cowboy beating the hell out of some douchebag city boy made it even better.
Best part was I got free floor level tickets, drank for free all night, and ended up sitting next to Cerrone's smoking hot cousin who invited me to the afterparty.
