| Compound in Red Wine Fights Ravages of Age | | 2008-07-04 07:33:00 | | (HealthDay News) -- A key compound in red wine known as resveratrol appears to protect against many of the health ravages associated with growing old, new animal research reveals."It's very hard to extrapolate from this finding to comment on the benefits of red wine directly, because red wine has many other compounds besides resveratrol, including ethanol, which have very active biological effects," noted study author Rafael de Cabo, unit chief of the laboratory of experimental gerontology at the National Institute on Aging in Baltimore."But red wine is a good source of resveratrol," he added. "And, in this mouse study, we have shown that this particular compound has very strong positive effects on preventing cardiovascular disease, reducing heart inflammation, keeping bone health in terms of structure and function, and maintaining loco-motor and balance activity. So, if these effects translate into humans, it will have a very good impact on the standard of human health."De Cabo conduc | | By: Integrative Medicine (CAM) Blog | | |

Now biologists have discovered that it's good for the brain, too.In a study appearing in the Journal of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB), an international team of scientists, including researchers from Johns Hopkins University, have discovered that burning frankincense activates poorly understood ion channels in the brain to alleviate anxiety and depression."We found that incensole acetate, a Boswellia resin constituent, when tested in mice lowers anxiety and causes antidepressive-like behavior," said Raphael Mechoulam, one of the study's co-authors.

| | | Clinton Fights to Reduce Expectations as Polls Tighten in PA | | 2008-04-10 11:11:17 | | Barack Obama has been slowly gaining ground on Hillary Clinton in Pennsylvania and the Clinton campaign on Wednesday worked aggressively to reduce expectations in the state. Senator Clinton previously held what was thought to be an insurmountable lead in Pennsylvania and it has shrunk down to a near tie. There have been nine polls conducted since the beginning of April and the Real Clear Politics average shows Senator Clinton still has a 7.9 percent lead. An American Research Group poll, however, found there to be a statistical tie between Obama and Clinton. Another poll conducted by Public Policy Polling (PPP) showed Obama had a 2 point edge over Clinton in Pennsylvania. Clinton previously held double-digit leads over Obama in Pennsylvania, which is why they are working so hard to reduce expectations. “The fact that we still maintain a lead after Sen.

Let's just say some big names are involved.The event, WEC 33, will feature WEC middleweight champion Paulo Filho’s (16-0) rematch with Chael Sonnen (19-9-1), and WEC light heavyweight champ Doug Marshall (7-2) will take on Brian Stann (5-0). This news came yesterday from MMAJunkie.comFilho's rematch represents the response to a controversial decision which may or may not have included a verbal submission from Chael Sonnen. Filho will look to close that door with a decisive win.Meanwhile, the undefeated Marine, Stann, will get his first shot at gold.

| | Chinese Government Fights Tax Evasion | | 2008-02-12 00:00:00 | | There has been much talk of the ‘tax gap" in the U.S., or the difference between taxes owed and taxes paid. Some people evade taxes purposely, others fail to pay the correct amount simply because of the complexity of the tax code, and still others look for every possible loophole without actually breaking the law. This may seem like the sort of problem that would not exist in a country with less freedom than the U.S. but a recent Wall Street Journal article (subscription required) describes the challenges the Chinese government has been facing, not only with tax evasion but also with a general societal antipathy toward income taxes:Surging growth in China's tax revenues is masking the government's difficulty in getting individuals to pay income taxes, a problem that could eventually hamper official promises to expand health and social programs.Years of big gains in the tax take have helped the government increase spending and trim its already small budget de | | By: Tax Policy Blog | | |

| | Classic Fights Close Door On 2007 | | 2007-12-28 22:51:51 | | UFC 79 offers up a buffet of mega fights. Georges St. Pierre and Matt Hughes look to set the bar for MMA trilogies with an interim title clash. Wanderlei Silva and Chuck Liddell seek the knockout that can cement their legacy as the greatest 205-pounder in MMA history. Young talents Rameau Thierry Sokodjou and Lyoto Machida battle to validate their mystique en route to title contention. Saturday night aims to bring New Year’s fireworks two days early.By Danny AcostaThe third installment of the trilogy between Georges St. Pierre and Matt Hughes includes storylines that transcend the sport. Hughes is the established champion, secure in his hall of fame status, mulling retirement but still sharpening his competitive edge. He takes on the paragon for the future—an unstoppable entity that has both succumb and overcome the pressures of elite competition.Despite Matt Hughes’ hopes, St. Pierre stepping in on short notice is not an issue. The Greg Jackson-trained fighter stays active between matches and was training Rashad Evans for a November clash. Shortly after, he jumped at the opportunity to regain his top spot in the 170lb division when Matt Serra stepped down due to injury.“Rush” dethroned the Illinois native with ease last November. It was a different fighter than Hughes had seen in their 2004 bout. The French Canadian nullified takedowns and punished him every step of the way. Rangy and fluid strikes ended the Miletich champion’s night early after St. Pierre followed up with ground and pound to a technical knockout.Hughes cannot enter this fight with his, “I’ll find a way to win” attitude that hindered his second performance. There is no doubt he is one of the most resourceful fighters in history. However, his opponent’s ability to dictate where the fight takes place will not allow for openings. Hughes must make them.With his ties cut from the MIletich camp for the first time, Hughes needs to remember what MFS imparted to him—confidence and stri | | By: The Irish Whip | | |

The creators of Norton Fighter have obviously modeled the character on famous Tokusatsu characters like Kamen Rider and Ultraman. This superhero fights viruses and creepy bots, rescues cute maids in distress, and generally saves the day. Somehow, the Japanese always seem to make stuff more cooler than they really are.

Need another healthy reason to drink green tea? Aside from fighting heart disease, cancer, and other diseases, a new study shows that drinking green tea may also fight fat.
The study showed that people who drank a bottle of tea fortified with green tea extract every day for three months lost more body fat than those who drank a bottle of regular oolong tea.
Researchers say the results indicate that substances found in green tea known as catechins may trigger weight loss by stimulating the body to burn calories and decreasing body fat.

Yet, English libel laws allow such actions to be commenced there.The Sheikh is well-known to challenge anyone who suggests, no matter how slightly, that he may be involved with terrorism, in British courts — making him one of Britain’s largest so-called libel tourists. Among other things, he also compiles all the apologies and retractions from his many libel suits on his website.Last week, Ehrenfeld challenged the ability of a British court to have authority over an American author in the U.S. Federal Court of Appeals and is currently waiting their decision.

| | Frank Trigg & Mayhem Announced For HDNET Fights - 10 Nov 2007 07:11:07am | | 2007-11-10 01:11:07 | |
Mark Cuban’s HDNet Fights on Friday officially announced its Dec. 15 event at the American Airlines Center in Dallas. The co-main events feature four Ultimate Fighting Championship veterans. Jason “Mayhem†Miller and Sean Salmon will square off, sharing top billing with Frank Trigg and his opponent, Edwin Dewees.
Also announced for the event, entitled “Reckless Abandon,†are fights between Yves Edwards and Alonzo Martinez, Pete Spratt and Tristan Yunker, Chris Bowles and Cory Mahon, Patrick Castillo and Jay White, and Freddie Espiricueta and C.B. Dollaway.
"With Frank (Trigg) and Jason (Miller), you know there's going to be a ton of action and lots of bizarre things can happen in the cage," said Guy Mezger, HDNet Fights’ matchmaker. "Frank is called ‘Twinkle Toes’ because he's known for painting his toe nails, but it certainly doesn't represent his vicious fighting style.
"On the other hand, Jason has certainly earned his ‘Mayhem’ nickname. With him, you never know what you will see, but you know it will be something crazy."
"We're thrilled to have these talented and entertaining fighters on board with HDNet Fights," said Cuban. "Our goal is to present the best fighters in the best fights we can make. These are two of the top middleweights in the world and we are fortunate enough to have them both fighting on the same card.

(Coach Shawn Tompkins holds pads for Jay White)
Heavyweight Jay White returns to the cage on Saturday December 15th at the American Airlines Arena in Dallas on the HDNet Fights show. He’ll be taking on Patrick Castillo.
Jay is chomping at the bit to get back in the cage. His last fight was on St Patrick’s Day in 2006.
Jay came down from Oregon to train with Randy for 2 weeks before the Gonzaga fight and ended up staying. He spent his summer serving as a stand-in for Gabriel Gonzaga and rolling with The Natural everyday. He also helped Phil Friedman get ready for his pro debut and trained with James “Colossus†Thompson, Forrest Griffin and Kimbo.
Now that he is settled in with a good, positive team situation he’s ready to make his mark on the HDNet Fights show.

On Thursday, November 1st, in the Blues-Wild game people were hoping for D.J. King and Derek Boogaard to drop the gloves and oh they did. They had an ok fight with both guys landing punches. Two of King's punches looked to actually land on Boogaard's chin. But then Boogaard came back with some punches on King. I would give that fight a slight edge to Boogaard. Watch the YouTube video of this fight below.D.J. King vs Derek BoogaardAlso on Thursday, Ducks' Travis Moen got to get some revenge on Blue Jackets' Jared Boll for his high hit on Moen. They had a long fight where I would give the edge to Moen. There were three fights in that Ducks-Blue Jackets game. In the Coyotes-Stars game on Friday, Josh Gratton knocked down Brad Winchester in a fight, which I talked about in my previous post. On Saturday night I surprised to see Devils' Mike Rupp drop the gloves with Rangers' enforcer Colton Orr. But he did and he did ok in a spirited fight. I gave that one a draw.Another big fight with the Wilds' Derek Boogaard this past week. On Saturday, Flames' Eric Godard instigated a fight with Boogaard and they had an ok fight, not really like their previous fights.

Macaluso had been allegedly in favour of Ferrari at the World Council but was later revealed as having voted for no punishment for McLaren. He however believes, Ferrari has a right to appeal.Ferrari statement:"The Board has ratified what happened until now, which is the action taken against Nigel Stepney over the fact of the powder found around the refuelling aperture on the F1 cars during the Monaco Grand Prix tests. The submission of another legal action against Stepney concerning the theft of technical information, the civil action presented to The High Court of London against Mike Coughlan, chief designer of McLaren Mercedes, and his wife, concerning the theft of the aforementioned d | | By: Formula 1 And Stuff Around It | | |

| | Game Time Pillow Fights | | 2007-07-25 19:51:06 | | Kids will always want to have fun before they go to bed. Among them include that of engaging in pillow fights with their brothers or sisters. While pillow fights are not usually the main purpose for use of pillows, it would be best to use them as a sleeping aid for people who want to sleep soundly.
Also, be careful whom you pick a pillow fight with. It may be someone who you may underestimate and leave you falling behind.

And while it is the put-it-together-yourself furniture, it has held up well over the years. And until recently we had no problems with it.
You see, when our kids were toddlers, they were short. Short enough that they could stand in front of the t.v. and everyone else could still see. Now however that | | By: Organized Chaos | | |
| | Fights That Need To Happen | | 2007-07-03 07:03:00 | | In this article, I'd like to highlight some of the most anticipated fights in MMA today. One has never occurred but just seems like such a good idea. Others went down once and were either incredible or ended too quickly -- either way, the fans are demanding a rematch. And some have gone two fights, each fighter has taken one, and the world wouldn't be right without a fitting end to the trilogy. Here they are, MMA fans...you may begin to dream...Matt Hughes-Georges St. Pierre IIIHughes submitted a young St. Pierre at UFC 50 in a bout which is probably as well recognized for George's eerie calmness and stability under Hughes' guard as it is for the spectacular arm bar which ended the fight with just seconds left in the first round. MMA fans knew they had seen something different. Someone had just fought Hughes, didn't panic, and even showed his own moments of brilliance (something Matt usually squashed early on). And so the rematch was set. At UFC 65, St. Pierre was the more | | By: The Irish Whip | | |
| | Top 4 UFC Fights Of All Time: Profiled | | 2007-07-02 05:05:00 | | Earlier this week, we profiled the top UFC fights of all time. From our four lists, only one had full consensus and three had three-quarters consensus. Below, with the help of ExtremeProSports, we'll profile these four fights, showing you why they deserve the accolades.Matt Hughes vs. Frank Trigg (UFC 52)-4 out of 4 writersShort and absolutely sweet. This was a fight where the unthinkable happened. Trigg struck Hughes in the groin; Hughes then turned to referee Mario Yamasaki to complain. Poor move. Yamasaki hadn't seen it, and Hughes got pelted with punches he wasn't ready for by Trigg. Next thing you know, Trigg has his back, and the choke is sunk in deep. Hughes begins to turn red, even purple. It seems as if his run as champion is about to end. But this is Matt Hughes, remember. First, he escapes the choke. Next, he picks Trigg up in the air and walks him to his own corner. Then perhaps the greatest slam of all-time occurs. Next thing you know, Hughes has Trigg in a rea | | By: The Irish Whip | | |
| | Top Ten PRIDE Fights Of All Time | | 2007-06-29 23:57:00 | | After I compiled every win and loss for the UFC, I did the same for PRIDE. And now, following my top ten UFC fights post, I feel it necessary to grant PRIDE with the same right. I realized that I've generally neglected PRIDE in the past, and while it is basically a defunct organization, it has still had it moments (incredible ones, no less). And so, I've teamed Masson up (believe me, it's better that I stay out of this one) with three Sherdog.com experts. Let's see what they have to say...We adapted criteria from Extremeprosports.com in order to form our own criteria (below) for our Top Ten lists.1. The fight itself had to have significant drama. In other words, each fighter, at one point or another, must have been in a position to win the fight.2. The bigger stage, the better.

| | Vegas Odds For Tonight's Fights | | 2007-06-23 21:31:00 | | The following money odds are from the ONLY source I trust, Damon's Free Fight Picks. I've made hundreds following his advice -- he picked the money on Rampage against Liddell, so did I, and it paid big. Remember, for the positive numbers (underdogs), that's the payoff on a $100 bet. For the negative numbers (favorites), that's the amount you need to bet to make $100. Jens Pulver (+250) vs BJ Penn (-350) How do you not take this Pulver money!? It's the only card this whole weekend that could be worth anything. You want to play the money on this one people, Pulver is a +250 fighter, but he's definitely not a +280, +300 guy. Prediction: Penn should win, but WATCH THE LINE, Pulver is worth it at anything closer to +300. Manny Gamburyan (EVEN) vs Nate Diaz (-130) Another no money fight, I'll sit through this to check out Pulver-Penn...will I bet? Yup, but not much!

In fact, their work showed that the active ingredient in olive oil, oleocanthal, was more effective at blocking enzymes that cause inflammation than ibuprofen was.Interesting indeed.These scientists go on to speculate that this may be another reason why the Mediterranean diet (high in olive oil) is such a healthy way to eat.An article in today's NY Times has further details.

| | Don Cherry on NBC says more fights | | 2007-06-04 22:29:00 | | Don Cherry is the best and he knows hockey. He was just on NBC in the second intermission of game 4 of the Stanley Cup finals and Bill Clement and Brett Hull asked him about fighting in hockey. Don Cherry said that hockey should have more of it because it draws fans and will bring better ratings. I 100% agree with Don Cherry on this and so did Brett Hull.The topic of fighting came up because at the end of the second period Ottawa Senators' captain Daniel Alfredson shot the puck intentionally at Ducks' captain Scott Niedermayer. Soon after that everyone tried to get at Alfredson. While he was behind a linesman and another Ottawa player, then he throws a gloved punch at Travis Moen. Real tough for Alfredson, what a classless piece of shit.At the start of the third period they showed the referee talking to Alfredson. Where's the penalty? He wasn't given a penalty for shooting the puck at Niedermayer. Wow, what a joke! You know if a tough guy like Chris Neil or Brad May did something l | | By: NHL Hockey Fights | | |

There hasn't been much since Flames' Dion Phaneuf and Red Wings' Todd Bertuzzi had their wrestling match. Although the Ducks' Shawn Thornton and Red Wings' Danny Markov had a short fight if you want to call it that. And in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Finals there was a big scrum with Senators' Mike Fisher and Ducks' Ryan Getzlaf going at it and Senators' Peter Schaefer and Ducks' Dustin Penner wrestling on the ice. | | By: NHL Hockey Fights | | |
| | Fights at Universities | | 2007-05-17 09:38:02 | | I noticed the heavy campus security as soon as I got to school at 8:00 in the morning yesterday. Although the security is always there, they seemed a little ruffled. I leave campus later on and come back 2 hours later, and the guy who collects money for the parking lot told me I can’t park outside. I hate parking inside because it gets so crowded and becomes really hard to get the car out later on during the day, so I tried to insist on parking outside. He shook his head and pointed to the main gate, where at least 5 big cars of police were parked, and where cops were walking around with their clubs, “They’re not letting anyone park outside today.”
He then told me that a “Abeidat” had stabbed two girls in the university yesterday evening, and that the girls’ tribes are really angry and expected to make an appearance, and that I really should go home. I didn’t go home as I had a class, but my class was in my faculty at the edge of the univ | | By: And Far Away... | | |
| | Angelina Jolie Fights For the Name 'Shiloh' | | 2007-05-12 09:00:00 | | Angelina Jolie doesn't want anyone naming their product after her natural born child.Symine Salipour, owner of a jewelery design and fragrance company, Hors Lá Monde Corp., plans to name her latest fragrance 'Shiloh'.Salimpour applied to trademark the name 'Shiloh' last June. Since then, Jolie's attorney has received two 90-day extensions to prepare a case opposing Hors Lá Monde's use of the name, and Jolie has contacted the US Patent and Trademark Office.A source told Life and Style Weekly magazine: "The name is completely unrelated. Symine is a citizen of both France and Israel, but she identifies strongly with her Israeli roots — it's a spiritual thing for her. Shiloh is a Hebrew name that means 'his gift'.New York trademark attorney Thomas M. Wilentz said, "The notice of opposition alleges that you will be damaged by the pending trademark. Angelina must feel that people applying for 'Shiloh' need to get her consent."The fragrance has reportedly been in development | | By: Celebrity Smack! | | |

| | More first round fights | | 2007-04-25 23:47:00 | | Here are the rest of the hockey fights that happened during the first round of the playoffs. On April 17th, between the Thrashers and Rangers game, Ilya Kovalchuk and Sean Avery got into a fight and it was mostly Kovalchuk who threw the punches. Decision to Kovalchuk. That same day, in the Ducks-Wild game, Corey Perry and Brent Burns had a spirited bout with Burns getting the upper hand in their fight. Later in that game, Kent Huskins and Adam Hall had a wrestling match with Shawn Thornton jumping in there. And Brad May sucker punched Kim Johnsson.On April 20th in the Lightning-Devils game, Andre Roy and Michael Rupp dropped the gloves and Rupp got the decision over Roy in a surprising fight. Then a little later, Nolan Pratt pounded on Jamie Langenbrunner with a lot of body shots. Decision to Pratt. On April 21st, in the Flames-Red Wings game, Dion Phaneuf and Todd Bertuzzi somehow got fighting majors when they really just wrestled.

| | NHL playoffs fights | | 2007-04-15 22:31:00 | | Even though we're not deep into the playoffs there have been a few fights. This is a surprise to me and a good surprise. The Sharks-Predators series has been nasty as there have been cheap shots, fights, and now even coaches talking through the media about the series. Nice! This series so far has had Ryane Clowe vs Jordin Tootoo, Mike Grier vs Scott Hartnell, and Scott Hannan vs Jerred Smithson all happened at the same time. The best fight was between Clowe and Tootoo as after the fight Tootoo had a bloody nose. Watch the clip of these fights below.Sharks vs Predators fightsIn the Wild-Ducks series, so far there has been one fight with Brent Burns and Chris Kunitz. I gave that one a draw. In the Penguins-Senators series, there has been two fights. The first with Colby Armstrong and Mike Comrie going at it. I gave that one a draw as not much happened in it. Tonight, Dean McAmmond and Maxime Talbot had a spirited bout after Armstrong took out Patrick Eaves with a big hit. I gave the edg | | By: NHL Hockey Fights | | |
| | End of season fights | | 2007-04-11 11:42:00 | | The last fights of the regular season took place on Sunday. There were only two fights. In the Blackhawks-Stars game, Brent Seabrook and Steve Ott had a short fight where Ott was the only one who threw punches as he got Seabrook off balance and Ott got the takedown. Decision to Ott in not much of a fight.In the Flames-Avalanche game, Dion Phaneuf layed out Tyler Arnason so Ian Laperriere went at Phaneuf and they dropped the gloves and had a spirited fight. Laperriere looked to have the edge in that one. Watch the YouTube video of that fight below.Dion Phaneuf vs Ian LaperriereI'm not expecting many fights in the playoffs, but maybe we'll get some, who knows. | | By: NHL Hockey Fights | | |
| | Rookie Jack Johnson fights for respect | | 2007-04-09 05:36:00 | | With the season winding down, on Saturday there were some hockey fights. In the Blackhawks-Red Wings game there was actually a fight. Patrick Sharp and Andreas Lilja had a spirited bout with Lilja landing two good punches on Sharp. Sharp also looked to land a punch but the decision goes to Lilja. In the Coyotes-Kings game there were three fights and rookie Jack Johnson was in two of them. First Daniel Carcillo and Jack Johnson dropped the gloves and had a spirited bout where both guys threw some nice punches, but the edge went to Carcillo. Jackson though showed up and threw punches back. Watch the YouTube video of this fight below.Daniel Carcillo vs Jack JohnsonThe next fight in the Coyotes-Kings game was between Josh Gratton and Raitis Ivanans. This fight happened because earlier Ivanans hit Keith Ballard into the boards and he fell awkwardly and was hurt. So Gratton and Ivanans dropped the gloves off a faceoff. Both guys exchanged punches but Ivanans used his reach to hold out Gratton and throw punches at him. The decision goes to Ivanans in this fight. Near the end of the game, Shane Doan hit Jamie Heward into the Kings goalie and Jack Johnson went at Doan, Doan immediately dropped his gloves and started throwing punches at Johnson. Heward jumps in and everyone tries to get in there. Even Curtis Joseph came down the ice but no line brawl took place. I agree with the Kings commentator in that what Doan did was cheap. There's no reason to hit a player into the goalie in the final minute of the last game of the season. I had a lot of respect for him but seeing that, I lost some.In the Lightning-Thrashers game, Nick Tarnasky and Eric Boulton dropped the gloves and fought. I did not see this fight yet so I can't tell you about it. In the Ducks-Blue Jackets game, Ron Hainsey instigated a fight with Rob Niedermayer because Niedermayer boarded Zherdev. Not much of a fight, both guys threw some punches but nothing landed. I give this one a draw. | | By: NHL Hockey Fights | | |
| | Fights with some newbies | | 2007-04-05 23:12:00 | | On Monday there was only on hockey fight with Blues' D.J. King vs the Stars' Krys Barch. This was a good fight with King mostly controlling the fight. Decision to King in that one.On Tuesday, there were four fights. In the Bruins-Canadiens game Dennis Wideman and Guillaume Latendresse dropped the gloves in a spirited fight where neither guy looked to get the upper hand. I gave that one a draw. That was Latendresse's first in the NHL.In the Oilers-Wild game, Zack Stortini and Derek Boogaard had a short fight as Stortini had the bear hug on Boogaard at the start of it. Then Boogaard got his right arm free and threw some big punches and then Stortini, knowing he's going to get pounded, grabs Boogaard's left leg and tries to send the big guy down by getting him off balance. But Boogaard doesn't go down, and then Stortini throws a quick right that looks to land, and then he falls to the ice. Boogaard then throws a couple at Stortini as they are both on the ice. The linesmen try and break them up as Boogaard looks pissed that Stortini tried that wrestling move on him. This wasn't much of a fight but if I had to give a decision, I would give it to Boogaard. You can watch the YouTube video of this fight below.Zack Stortini vs Derek BoogaardLater in the Oilers-Wild game, Patrick Thoresen and Branko Radivojevic had an ok fight for two guys who don't fight often. It was all Radivojevic at first but Thoresen threw a big right hand that looked to land. I would give this one a draw.In the Blues-Coyotes game, David Backes and Keith Ballard had an ok good fight for guys who also don't fight often (although Ballard has fought before). I would give this one a draw, maybe a slight edge to Ballard. This was Backes' first NHL fight. | | By: NHL Hockey Fights | | |
| | Some heavyweight fights in the past few days | | 2007-03-25 09:18:00 | | On Thursday there were three fights. In the Sharks-Thrashers game Mark Bell and Jon Sim had a fight where Bell sent Sim down to the ice with a punch. No question decision goes to Bell. In the Senators-Panthers game Chris Neil and Steve Montador dropped the gloves and Montador landed a good left but Neil came back with some of his own punches. I would give this one a draw, maybe an edge to Montador. In the Blues-Wild game, heavyweights D.J. King and Derek Boogaard had a good fight with Boogaard getting the decision but King hung in there all he could.On Friday there were two fights in the Kings-Blackhawks game. First Tom Kostopoulos and Danny Richmond had a fight where it was all Richmond. Then there was a heavyweight fight with Raitis Ivanans and David Koci going at it. I would give their fight a draw. Watch it below.Raitis Ivanans vs David Koci | | By: NHL Hockey Fights | | |
| | Saturday looked like fight night with 8 fights | | 2007-03-20 05:37:00 | | This past Saturday again proved once again that Saturdays are fight night in hockey. In the Bruins-Rangers game there were three fights, with Jeremy Reich dropping the gloves twice. First there was Reich vs David Liffiton with maybe Liffiton getting the edge in that one. Later Chuck Kobasew and Ryan Callahan had a wrestling match which was a draw. Reich's second fight in the game was against Ryan Hollweg which was a good one. Both guys looked to land a few, but Reich got the better of Hollweg and I give the edge to Reich in that fight. View a nice picture below of their fight.Jeremy Reich punches Ryan HollwegIn the Hurricanes-Devils game, Craig Adams and Johnny Oduya had a spirited bout right off a center ice faceoff. Both guys exchanged punches and I give the edge to Adams, but I think it could be called a draw. In the Avalanche-Coyotes game, Mark Rycroft and Daniel Carcillo dropped the gloves in a spirited bout where Carcillo looked to land the only punches.
