WOW !!!
Ok, so thats possibly the most exciting MMA event I've seen in years.
I don't know where to start!! So probably best from bottom to top....gotta be brief as Im off out
1. Jeff Hougland - Impressive debut. Well rounded. Kicked the night off well.
2. Njokuani - Wow, that guys striking is incredible. Winner is a beast with his hands, and he got destroyed. Hats off to winner for surviving three rounds, it could have easily been stopped twice
3. Aaron Simpson looked strong. Tavares looked a bit fresh/naive. Should come with experience.
4. Bowles looked ok, nothing sensational in my eyes
5. Poor G-Sop, Great finish from Dos Anjos, but felt for G-Sop never being able to get into the fight. Shame as I think hes a really great fighter. Stand up still the hole in his game.
6. Guillard. Devastating quick hands. Roller clocked him a couple of times, but ultimately was outclassed on his feet. Great finish.
7. Matt Wiman I thought was robbed. Close fight but I had Siver losing by a round.
8. Condit - Super impressive, great flyinng knee to set up the finish. First loss for Stun Gun. He'll be back though hes a solid wll rounded fighter.
9. Tito. Well to me this was very unexpected. I thought Bader would KO Tito and retire him from the UFC. How wrong I was. Solid right hand and clinical guillotine to finish.
10. Time to hang 'em up Wandy? Hate to see you keep going out like that. The Roy Jones of MMA? Both amazing punchers. Leben has a chin though, Wandy was careless and paid the price.
11. Cruz looked sharp as always. Faber was a big test for him though. I definitely didnt have Cruz up by 5 like one judge but did give him the win.
All in all such an exciting array of fights. Possibly the shortest overall fight time of any UFC event, certainly in recent times.
lol you practically nailed it... what can I add
I finally managed to get time to watch the last fight sotiropoulus lost :/ , Im a little worried about him, I hope he sharpens up, hes such a great representative for AU etc. and a nice guy. It was a lucky punch I guess... He will be back!
I agree that the event was awesome. You know it is a great event when such a long event, facebook fights, prelimns and main events included felt short haha. Hard to top a great event like King Kong vs Barry but they did it!
Fedor vs Hendo next lol
Ill get on giving out the competition prizes as soon as I can guys sorry for being so slow in watching the events lol, I just have a lot of work... Ill get on it!
