In which I offer my post-fight review and analysis of UFC 160 from top to bottom and add a lot of extraneous thoughts.
If you like this sort of thing, subscribe to MMA Nation on YouTube and get all of my videos as soon as they're uploaded.
Topics include:
- How a card with so many great fights could end up being such a crappy viewing experience
Too many ads on Fuel plus too many fights shown twice make for a long evening filled with deadspots that sucked much of the fun out of some really good MMA action. Let us pray that FS 1 will have a better slate of advertisers. Thate M&M's Meat Loaf ad alone is criminally bad. - The great grappling showcased on the card
- Pretty much just a facts review of the card, sorry for those who were wanting me to get cosmic again.
- Star reviews for each fight on the card from the beginning of the Facebook prelims to the end of the Fuel TV headliner
- Some potshots at the tired, stale, played-out why won't it die Ultimate Fighter reality show format.
- Speculation on what the hell happened to Feijao.
Enjoy!
