The recent history of MMA

I think Dave Doyle has the right take on this and it does speak well of the future of our sport:

"With UFC 109 out of the way, it is worth taking a quick peek back at the past couple months in MMA. To hear some tell it, this was supposed to be a period of gloom and doom for the sport, as a slew of top fighters were felled by injuries and mishaps at the time boxing was undergoing its resurgence. Instead, the past two months featured a slew of solid cards. Strikeforce put on compelling events in both December and January. The WEC had an action-packed card in Sacramento that sets up its biggest fight ever, Jose Aldo vs. Urijah Faber, in April. And on the heels of a UFC 108 card that delivered in the face of doubts, UFC 109’s co-main events also gave fans their money’s worth. MMA, now in position for a killer spring and summer as boxing tries to rebound from the Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao fiasco, showed off its depth as a largely diverse cast of characters stepped up and delivered solid action while the biggest stars were on the sidelines. It bodes well for the sport’s long-term health and is something to remember next time we hit an injury-plagued stretch."
