Wisconsin State Fair Day 5: Monday August 4th

Mainstage Review: MMA in the Cage
Tonights show can be summarized in this analogy. Say you are a fan of UFC and you want to go to a local show. Going to this show is like being a fan of the WWE and going to a backyard wrestling match. The show lasted an hour and a half, but some of the bouts lasted under a minute. The main event was for the light heavyweight championship. The challenger shot a knee to the jaw of the champ, broke his jaw in two places and punched him in the head three times. That took 16 seconds. The 600 in attendance loved it, and I guess that is all that matters. The fans were very polite, the fighters displayed great sportsmanship and there were absolutely no problems with anyone. The fighters always shook hands to start the fight, and helped eachother up when the fight was over. For a grand finale, the "On the border" ring girls didn't look to bad either.
