Prelims:
Oliviera def Guderson by UD- Not sure what to say here, didn't watch it and niether fighter were really impressive before the fight.
Ellenbergher def Pyle by TKO round 2- Ellenbergher was really impressive here, his wrestling looked really good and he has loads of power. He only lost a split to condit but IMO it should have been a draw. He needs to look for a step up now, maybe a rematch with Rick Story or something but he was impressive here.
Munoz def Jensen by sub (strikes) round 1- Munoz looked impressive here, better striking shown and some good GnP. Jensen is probably gone and should look for another fighting promotion and Munoz is ready for a step up. Im thinking along the lines of Kendell Grove.
Prelims on Spike
Cole Miller def Lauzon by sub round 1- Lauzon dropped Miller early and was looking. for the finish but got careless. Then Miller caught him with a really nice Triangle/Kimura combo that made him tap. Not the return Lauzon was looking for and Miller is turning into somesort of gatekeeper. He has some really inventive BJJ and decent training but he still needs more if he wants to step up, good win for him here. Lauzon should fight someone like Oliveria. Miller should face someone like Uno.
Kampmann def Volkman by sub round 1- Exciting fight, Volkman left of where he started against Thiago and came out swinging. Just like against Thiago he left huge opening so while he was connecting, he left easy openings for Kampmann to tag him. Eventually it went to the ground and Kampmann caught him in a really nice guillotine which left Volman to tap. Good rebound win for Kampmann, id possibly like to see Kampmann vs Saunders or maybe Kampmann vs Ellenberger. I hope the UFC keep Volkman, he is an exciting fighter, never going to be a title contender but always exciting and willing to take fights on short notice, he should be kept.
Main Card
Dos Santos def Yvel by TKO in round 1- YEEEEEEE thats my boy, Dos Santos get his 4th win the ocatagon over solid competition. Not much to say for the fight, Yvel came out agressive and a little flashy, Dos Santos came up with the perfect gameplan and caught Yvel clean on the chin and finished him off. Dos Santos continues to look good, 4 wins over tough opponents, okay Yvel isn't the Pride sensation Rogan and Dana were trying to hype him up to be but still a tough KO artist and Dos Santos finished him off inside a round. Next for him is probably Velasquez. If Velasquez beats Nog he won't get a title shot IF Lesner is coming back. Lesner will fight the winner of Mir/Carwin leaving Dos Santos and Velasquez to fight for the number on contender spot. If Velasquez looses then that fight is still a possibility. Possibly a fight with Gonzaga as well. Yvel should be back, They should give him an easier fight next time round.
Miller def Bang by sub- Miller looked impressive, his striking looked better he caught Bang and finished him on the ground. Miller is a good fighter, only two losses to Edgar and Maynard. Im not sure where to put him right now, he is probably sniffing around the stage of joining the group of Daddy, Guida, Edgar and Griffin. Bang deserves a second chance.
Stout def Lauzon by UD- Good fight here, Stout is one of the most exciting fighters in the UFC. He was really impressive here, his striking looked a lot better in terms of technique and he packs a powerful punch. Lauzon was dissapointing, his wrestling was poor here. Taining with Tompkins has ovbviously helped Stout, his wrestling and BJJ looked better as well. The LW division is stacked so im not sure where these guys go from here, I think Stout vs Fisher III would be an outstanding fight to finish the trilogy. They are 1-1 as of now. Lauzon should fight Boeck.
Daley def Hazelett by KO- Nice KO by Semtex, but awful gameplan from Hazelett. He didn't even try for the takedown. Still a lot of power from Daley shown, Id like to see him vs Rumble right now.
Evans def Silva by UD- Evans back to his wrestling base for this match, his takedowns were good his control wasn't really. He domianted the opening two rounds but got really sloppy in the final match and ended up getting rocked and dropped badly. When Silva was dancing around im not sure why Evans didn't just tag him, it didn't look too hard. Pretty good match up that sets us up nicely for Evans vs Rampage. Id like to see Silva drop down to MW now, I think he could be a beat there but Luiz Cane or the Janitor are possibilities as well.
Overall a good event that had some exciting fights, nice KOs and inventive submissions.
