VIDEO: UFC 129 Pre-Fight Press Conference
Based on my experience with approximately ten radio shows in markets from Florida to Toronto itself, much of the attention and focus is on Couture. His announcement that this was very likely his last fight in the UFC has sparked intrigue and reflection. There’s also ample energies focused on GSP and whether he’ll earn a position at the top fighter in MMA with a win over Shields. Shields, by contrast, has very few believers. There is little to no interest in Hominick vs. Aldo, although I suspect that will change after the fight itself.
