I'm in the same boat as u. Haven't actually watched a Tachi show since the Ian MCall days but this card has some solid looking prospects so I'll check the highlights. Would watch live but cannot on Thursday night and even if they did put it on a Friday night so it wouldn't clash with my job I would just end up watching Bellator instead. Solid promotion, glad they're still chugging along.

There's my dancing.

There's my dancing.

They snuck the crazy dancing in 15 minutes before the show is about to start? Those slimey basterds!

 

[beefcake180]

Quite the song here

 

[europe1]

Only TJ DeSantis is listed as the announcer. Does that mean we'll see a rare one-man cast?

 

[JayPettryMMA]

It's going to be weird, it sounds like TJ is going to be the only one calling the action tonight. Cody's fighting in the main event so he'll be busy. I hope they get Javy back. Tapology said it'd just be TJ though.

 

[JayPettryMMA]

Great minds, europe1

 

[europe1]

Great minds, europe1

Has anyone actually seen a one-man cast before? I've seen a few but only Swedish ones. They where awfully terrible.

 

[JayPettryMMA]

I've seen a couple, one in europe, one some weird promotion in pennsylvania, and I think I watched a japanese one where it was just one guy talking but it could have been the japanese anik/florian effect.

 

[JayPettryMMA]

Two judges?

 

[JayPettryMMA]

And the JUDGE IS SINGING THE NATIONAL ANTHEM woooooo

 

[beefcake180]

Two judges?

I was just about to say that myself. Wtf

 

[europe1]

And the JUDGE IS SINGING THE NATIONAL ANTHEM woooooo

Such a foul, undignified creatures shouldn't be allowed near a flag and least of all sing the national anthem.

I'm just reading up on the history of Tachi Palace Fights. There was a Palace Fighting Championship before it, but it fizzled out. Never knew all of its events are held in a hotel, first time hearing of Tachi Palace Hotel and Casino. But then, I am a non-American.

I see it has 255 rooms, and a massive casino. How many people on average do they get for their fights? What is the hotel like, for anyone that has stayed there? What's the pool and casino like?

I'm intrigued. This must be the first time I've watched TPF live, lol.

 

[JayPettryMMA]

Awesome, Yves Edwards!

Richard Parra III beat Drake Boen in his first fight so I thought he could be something great but then he lost his second bout so...
