6 because I missed some of the main event and the tito fight. Wand losing and Faber losing a bad decision in a fight he wasn't hardly touched in yet knocked down or rocked Cruz three times in hurt the card in a big way. Wiman-Siver was forgettable, Tito and Condit fights were super awesome though even if I missed the Tito win. I never felt like the main event was this amazing war though missing a chunk of the third and fourth I guess hurt the flow of the fight for me. Mostly though I am butthurt and usually around this time start questioning why I let a sport have this much power over my emotions. Quit playing games with my heart ;

Hardly touched? Dude was getting lit the fuck up by combo after combo all night long. He started headhunting in round two and never looked back. Take that shit back to UD or wherever.
Awesome event. Great fights through and through except for perhaps Njokuani failing to finish Winner, but that was one hell of a beating he put on him. Unexpected finishes, return of a legend in spectacular fashion over a young gun, and a main even for the ages. I haven't seen a fight as good as Cruz/Faber in a very long time. I gave it a 9.5 but since there isn't a 9.5 I defsulted up to 10.
Honestly I wasn't surprised Siver got it. He was the only one landing strikes the entire fight while Wiman kept going for a leg and only really took the second round.

Siver vs Wiman could have went either way to me it was very close. Overall the card was a definite 10 to me. Very good card. Best since the GSP vs Shields card except this 1 the main event lived up to the hype in my opinion.

I gave it a 9 and I can see where Siver might have won on the cards, but disagreed. Same with Cruz and Faber. I hate to admit that I cheered for Tito winning like he did, because honestly I thought he hd nothing left in the tank. So much for me knowing so much. Leben was fucking impressive!

A takedown is an offensive grappling technique. I think the idea that a takedown has to lead to damaging strikes in order to score is the most ridiculous opinion held in mass by the MMA fan diaspora. However, in rounds where a guy is KNOCKED DOWN, a pseudo takedown that is instantly reversed and never even leads to an advantageous ground position shouldn't account for much, and not more than the knockdown.

I gave it a 2. If it wasn't for Condit I would have gave it a 1. I would have a very hard time watching this event again, hard to see through the tears.

My rating directly reflects my feelings during and after the event. Painful card for me to watch, couldn't have turned out much worse for me as a fan. This card will torture my soul for years to come. I wept openly for days until reaching the brink of dehydration.
