Diego Sanchez's Face Becomes A Concern For Paramore's Hayley Williams -by Kyle Anderson
With playoff implications hanging in the balance in the NFL, hot stove moves happening all over baseball and the grand spectacle of the Army/Navy football game, it was an excellent weekend for sports. But anybody who caught UFC 107 on pay-per-view on Saturday night (December 12) was treated to the best set of performances of the weekend. The show was excellent from top to bottom (save for the typically dull Jon Fitch fight), and featured impressive performances from Frank Mir (who tapped out fellow heavyweight Cheick Kongo in just over a minute), Kenny Florian (who made Clay Guida bleed like a stuck pig before choking him out) and B.J. Penn, who put up a good argument for himself as the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world. He took a skilled wrestler and striker in Diego Sanchez and made him completely impotent. Penn beat on him solidly for four rounds, and the fight was finally stopped because of the gash in Sanchez's head. Sanchez was so cut up that it looked like he had just fought Freddy Krueger, not a jiu-jitsu specialist from Hawaii.
Though Paramore are currently on the road in Europe, that didn't stop frontwoman Hayley Williams — a huge UFC fan in her own right — from catching the show. "Watching the fights online," Williams tweeted from somewhere between Dublin and Cardiff. "This is fun." She too was impressed by the clinic that Penn put on against Sanchez. "I am not believing this fight right now!" she tweeted later. When it was finally called off and Penn was declared the winner (and still UFC Lightweight Champion), Williams wrote, "Gnarly cut on Diego's forehead. Overall, I woulda liked to have seen a lot more action but let's be honest ... I couldn't have done it."
During the show, Williams also tweeted to a pal back in Nashville and promised the idea of UFC parties upon her band's return. She only has to wait a few more days, as the final date of Paramore's European tour is this Friday, December 18. They'll have a handful of weeks off until they play some shows in Japan at the beginning of February, which gives her plenty of opportunity to catch some top-shelf pugilism: UFC 108 takes place on January 2 (featuring "Sugar" Rashad Evans squaring off against Thiago Silva) and UFC 109 goes down on February 6 (headlined by a massive match-up between Randy "The Natural" Couture and Mark "The Hammer" Coleman).
