| I say top 5 of all time in terms of great fights. We got to see most of the card also. Every fight was non stop action. | |

| I didn't even like it as much as the Strikeforce card, strictly speaking about the PPV portion. Besides Aldo and Faber every one of the main fighters on SF were just flat out better, and the title fights were both anti climactic for me. Aldo not finishing a pathetic Faber in a boring final round spoiled that fight, and Cerrone looked like horse shit and got caught in a amatuer gillotine.
The best card in the last month was KOTC : Badboys II in terms of pure action.
That said, Jung-Garcia is immediately the greatest slugfest in the sports history. What on earth was that? Jung robbed blindly though. | |

| Also the hiding of the WEC name weirded me out the whole time. | |

| yeah Aldo was dominant, but the main event was neither riveting nor action packed. and while we all like to see fights finished I think we all wanted to see a war in the co-main. | |

| considering I was at a bar and didnt get to see Jung fight I will say emphaticallly no
not a top 5 all time PPV or even best card of they year
I thought the format was kinda weird last night, fun night, ya, but greatest ever ? na
StrikeForce was better card, was free, and got this place buzzing like nobodies business | |

I didn't get to watch KOTC so I wouldn't be able to compare. WEC was way better than the SF card in terms of action. The main events were the worst fights, but all the fights they showed were great imo. | |

| I think it was the best card of the year so far. We got to see 10 fights and not a single one of them was bad. | |

| I have not seen the prelims but overall the main card was eventful, and perhaps one of the better cards this year...all time is pushing it. The crowd here brought a lot to the show. I wish they still got up for the Kings like that.
UFC 110 is still the best show this year IMO. WEC 48 is in that discussion. I can name a bunch of cards from a bunch of orgs that i liked more, including other WEC cards | |

| "Aldo vs Faber" wasn't as good as some of the actual WEC events this year. | |
