Great event
That judge who scored the first rd for Massenzio wants his licence taking away from him,no way anyone could make a serious case for Mike winning the first rd.
Good fight though,started the card off great.
Simpson looked good aswell,but Schaffer showed nothing except the fact he has a granite chin.
Couldn't believe after watching the first rd,that this fight would of gone the distance.
I'd imagine schaffer gets cut after that.
Only saw the first rd of the Elkins - Quan fight,so don't know how it played out,but from what I saw,at this level,it's no good just having a good submission game(well a dangerous guillotine),if your grappling game isn't very good to go with it.
Miocic looked pretty good,he's still very green in certain areas but he's a well rounded fighter,who i think will improve alot over the next couple of years.
I'm sure he'd of took alot away from that fight.
Enjoyed the Stephens - Pettis fight,I gave Stephens the first rd and Pettis the last 2.
The maia - santiago fight was abit dull,but it went pretty much how i expected it to go,with maia being able to handle himself standing long enough to get Santiago down,where Maia would be able to controll him.
Shit,I couldn't believe how Melvins legs gave out on him,after what seemed to be nothing more than a stiff jab.credit to lauzon,one thing he is really good at,is when he has a fighter hurt,he doesn't waist anytime going for the kill,he was on top of melvin instantly and finished him with a very nice choke.
can't believe I didn't pick the Phan - Garcia for FOTN,I could watch these two fight each other at any time,they always give there all,really hope we see a third fight.
Phan's hands were impressive.
good performance from Sonnen,the guys a beast when he can grab a hold of you.
impressed,but not getting carried away,after watching Davis dominate him with his wrestling in his UFC debut,Stann was tailor made for Sonnens style.
Still think Anderson beats him.
Kenny fought a smart fight to frustrate Aldo,but he never seemed to put in the extra effort to try a win the fight.
Aldo didn't really put on a great performance,but he did enough to easily win the fight.
Impressed with his takedown defence,will be interested how well he can defend mendes's takedowns.
Gutted I switched to maynard winning.
What was he thinking,if you don't push the pace and keep the pressure on frankie,he'll just out work you.
Maynard is an idiot,he's obviously got power in his punches,but his over all boxing is poor,he's a wrestler,so after switching off again after a great first rd,I'm happy the fool lost.
Frankie for me,proved that he is undersized in this division,but he is a better,smarter and more skillfull fighter than Maynard.
