Suprisingly entertaining card, indeed.
You'll probably be sorry that you missed it, Omega!

Aldo still got it! Love the kid!

Absolutely awesome cart!! Barboza is going to be a champion at some point

Agreed.

Looks like Anthony Johnson has been released following his third failed weight cut.

Palhares is awesome. Top Class Jits again from the big Brazilian. (could be a future middleweight champ there)

The Barbosa KO was sublime.

Actually this was a pretty damn good card.

Erik Silva will be the #1 contender at some point....

That DQ was such BS, but I didn't like how Joe Rogan openly criticised the decision in front of Yamasaki. It was disrespectful and has no place in MMA.

I've only watched the Belfort vs. Johnson fight so far. The "punches to the back of the head" stand-up was strange imo.

So all fights were awesome?

Johnson looked like a beginner against Belfort.

Holy God I wouldn't want to grapple Palhares. He's just way too stocky, strong, and skilled. That is a dangerous grappler. I look at him and want to hit the weight room.
