UFC 122 post-fight interview with Amir Sadollah

Amir Sadollah vs. Peter Sobotta

On the thirteenth of November in a German city
Fists are flying, if you miss it, what a pity
Two fighters show up in the Oberhausen Arena
Summoned by an equivalent of a UFC subpoena
One is Peter Sobotta, the other has Amir Sadollah for his name
They have trained hard and prepared to claim their fame
It’s a good match stylistically
Both are gentlemen characteristically
Peter is at home Amir from across the ocean
They both yearn badly for a ranking promotion
Fight starts with the words: are you ready
From then the action is plenty and very steady
They have good hearts and they show it
The two do their best not to blow it
Punches and kicks over and over again
With those bruises there must be agony and pain
Peter goes for take downs once a round
While Amir’s defense is sharp as a hound
Peter’s spinning back kicks bring cheers and roars
But they don’t help much in the final scores
He falls once and Amir gets on top
It was the missed kick that caused this flop
The clenches don’t do much for Peter
An elbow by Amir doesn’t hurt much either
As the rounds wear on, so seem that does Peter
Amir gets crisper with leg kicks that look sweeter
Combos and kicks, jabs and punches
Amir sends his way in many bunches
Peter is tough and down he won’t go
He’s fighting for life, in the interview he said so
The man has heart you must give him that and more
We’ll see him again with plenty to explore
Amir sticks to his plan it certainly seems that way
He didn’t come here for fun, games or just to play
At the end its Amir’s hand in the air that is raised
I think Peter agrees that Amir should be praised
Peter must be proud with his chin held high
He showed his toughness and that’s no lie
Amir does a shuffle for the audience and his fan base
After thanking Marco, Nick and others for their help with his usual grace
The fight comes to an end and both of these men
Can’t wait to get back in once Dana says when
