8.

The Jacare fight was draining. Not bad, but a bad arguement for the need for more 5 rnd fights.

Maybe it just lacked the hype going in to be 9 or 10.


anyone see how empty that joint was?

I'll give it a 9...not a 9 with the same oomph as UFC:Rio but a 9 for probably being my favorite SF card to date.

Yeah i thought it was a 8. There were some very good KOs and a new champion and a new HW star was born with Cormier beating Big Foot. Barnett showed an awesome display of a great ground game also. Overall I enjoyed it.

If it is not as good as a card u gave a 9, the it should be less then a 9.

Overall, it was a really strong card, even with it's peculiar, or not so peculiar to me, design in the match making. It's obvious Kyle and Cavalcante should of been fighting each other and their opponents should of squared of against each other as well, but not as obvious as chipping away at fights left on some guys contract while attempting to save them for 'going out with a bang'.

Hey, Blanco needs to be fighting at Featherweight, he looked really good but looked like he was at quite a disadvantage.

agree on Blanco, guy looked awesome, but Healy looked 2 divisions bigger.

just watched the Cavalcante fight.

Uneventful 1st rnd, blame goes to Yoel, but no big deal.

He was on the attack in the 2nd. brought it to Feijao with he striking and the takedowns, cut cavalcante survived the flurries, and again shows an immunity to free style wrestlers.


Dope finish.

Actually a pretty good fight, and I see why Romero is so highly regarded. Has excellent movement and the striking looks crisp. Got caught by very tricky strike combo, from a very powerful guy. It happens. Was certainly competitive up till that point.

Romero has obvious great potential, also obvious he is was way to raw and new to be in there with a guy like Feijao so soon, and the arm throwing and taunting, c'mon already lol, does he think he is anderson silva?

Another thing... Jordan Mein is looking real good. 10-1 since the start of 2010!! With good victories over Santos, Riggs, Zaromskis, and Burkman. Scafidine could be a real good fight for him.

Each round by him last night was better then the previous, excellent display.

really really good card. Only fight that wasnt impressive was the main event for from what we saw in sergeis fight with monson, his ground is missing and barnett did what he does. Other than that i really enjoyed it and give it a solid 8. Imo not even overeem could of manhandled or put away that overhyped bigfoot away as fast as daniel did. Great preformance by the best hw prospect. Imo he could beat guys like nog,schaub, mir and maybe even lesnar. Guy is a smart, good fighter and cant wait til he destroys the bum of barnett. Lol at bigfoot for ever talking smack about lesnar or thinking he and the rest of the sf hws belonged in the top 5 wen this tourny was first anounced. Imo daniel fo sure is top 5 with only jds,cain,carwin and possibly the winner of lesnar/overeem having a size advantage over him. Also thank god the jacare/anderson talks will be over. Rockhold did good but barely won. On a final thought blanco is fine at lw, its just that healy looked huge cus of the short notice. Normally he looks in better shape. Really good card

I'm giving it an 8. I loved it, good action packed fights. A nice surprise KO of Bigfoot that I for one didn't see coming. A close title fight, I was pleased
