It's not very often that fights become larger than life and actually
live up to the hype.

But at this past weekend's WEC 49 event in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada,
Mark Hominick and Yves Jabouin combined to deliver a toe-to-toe battle that lived up to every bit of
the hype generated by eight years of build-up.

Surprisingly, despite getting up off the canvas to deliver a second-round
TKO of Jabouin, Hominick said he wasn't sure exactly how great the fight
was. In fact, there are a few seconds he doesn't even remember.

You'll excuse Strikeforce's Trevor Prangley (22-5 MMA, 3-1 SF) if he's not buying into the hype.

Prangley's opponent at tonight's "Strikeforce Challengers VI: Kaufman

SF), enters the contest as a much ballyhooed prospect. But Prangley, a
nine-year veteran, has dealt with his share of young contenders.

"I've fought a lot of guys that are really skilled, but I've always
been able to implement my pace and my gameplan," Prangley recently told
MMAjunkie.com Radio. "I don't think this will
be any different."
