jude099 - what's the story with renzo taking the ref down. usually see that in MMA


 He went for a belly slide on the sweat covered mat at the end and accidentally blindsided the ref.

Why is Penny Thomas and Hanette Stack competing with a man?

the photos don't show it, there were ~2k - 2.5k spectators on day 1 and ~3k - 3.5k spectators on day 2, so this edition was far, far better attended than 2007 or 2009.

Barcelona had maybe 400 spectators, Trenton similar. the Pyramid was packed, so maybe 3k?.
