I wanted to share a few of my favorite shots from this past weekend’s amazing UFC 116 in the less amazing but slowly warming in my heart (and burning the air) Las Vegas (thanks to some lovely new friends).

The Casey and I went to Sin City last week to cover UFC 116 for AOL Fanhouse/MMAfighting.com and we shot ridiculous amounts of video & photo, from the workouts to a forthcoming vid backstage with Joe Rogan.

Ariel had some great interviews too.

And this one with Gerald Harris was Casey’s favorite:

All in all, an amazing week — hope you enjoyed your holiday, those of you in the States, and well, I’m sure everyone enjoyed those fights.  Leben vs Akiyama was my personal favorite. And as promised, a few photos. But please check out the enormous gallery over at MMAfighting.com too.
