It's a lot of the stuff we've been working on," [Couture] said later. "And again it's all rooted in wrestling, which always makes me smile. The 46-year-old Couture, a four-time U.S. wrestling champion and Olympic team alternate, hopes to avoid spending time on his back tonight when he takes on the 45-year-old Mark (The Hammer) Coleman in the UFC 109 main event, a matchup of UFC Hall of Famers at the Mandalay Bay Events Center (available on pay per view).
From the first too-quick combination to the decisive left cross to the jaw, Pacquiao's ninth-round TKO victory at the Mandalay Bay Events Center also seemed to be a coronation. Most observers left the fight convinced the Filipino star deserves the unofficial honour of being known as the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world, even if Pacquiao himself still doesn't care about that particular title. Pacquiao's dominant victory over Diaz answered several questions about the Filipino star's size and focus. In his first fight as a lightweight, Pacquiao was as quick and powerful as ever -- yet he also stayed disciplined, picking apart Diaz with a precision that hasn't always been shown by a fighter who loves a good brawl. The game plan stayed intact, and he fought a great fight," trainer Fr...
Well, here it is Sunday night, just two days before the vehicles begin crossing the block at the 38th annual Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction. It's been less than three months since Barrett-Jackson's first auction outing at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. With the full effects of the recent financial crunch being felt, many buyers stayed home last October and prices at the "No Reserve" auction were down substantially from any previous Barrett-Jackson event. Given the tight money situation and a venue better served by action at the casino and the lavish stage shows, I can't say it's a true indicator of the collector-car market. While many have been asking me over the past few weeks for my comments on where the collector-car market is headed this year, my crystal ba...
Technique trumped power at UFC 81 as Frank Mir submitted former WWE star Brock Lesnar and Antonio Rodrigo [Nogueira-Sylvia] choked out Tim Sylvia. The heavyweight co-main events at the Mandalay Bay Events Center made for compelling viewing Saturday night, albeit unfolding at different speeds. Mir-Lesnar was full throttle -- 90 seconds of frantic violence before Lesnar tapped out to a kneebar.

Despite attempts to sell it as a "family destination" a few years back, there's undoubtedly a seamy side to Las Vegas, one that's more accurately reflected in the recent "What happens here, stays here" ad campaign. We focus on activities that are more wholesome and, well, free. We check out the Paris, with its giant replica of the Eiffel Tower, and the Venetian, with its canals and gondolas: As long as there's a hotel attached, kids may walk through the casinos. We watch the volcano erupt at the Mirage ("Lame," pronounces [Ben]), and scantily clad sirens fighting off the pirates at Treasure Island ("Lame," pronounces Ben once more, "but they have nice underwear.") Next stop: the Atomic Testing Museum. "You always make us go to museums on holiday," the kids complain. "We're in Las Vegas....

I chose to park at Steve Wynn's Treasure Island the first night, mainly because I was taking in a performance of Cirque du Soleil's Mystére there later in the evening. But first it was Andrew Lloyd Webber's Phantom of Opera across at The Venetian. After dinner at Tao, it was a leisurely stroll south on Las Vegas Boulevard for the 8 p.m. Stomp, and then a bit of a dash across the street and south again to Monte Carlo for [Lance Burton] at 10 p.m. Luckily, the magician's theatre is near The Strip entrance, although after the show, it's a long walk through the casino to the parking at the rear, where the main entrance is actually located. The third night was even trickier. I had tickets for The Blue Man Group at the Venetian at 8 p.m. and then a 10:30 p.m. performance of the burlesque rev...
