I agree with the bonuses. I do think the Dodson/Dillashaw was stopped a bit premature but I can see from the reff angle why he stopped it. Dodson had Dillashaw doing ballerina curtseys!!
The Brandao and Bermudez fight was awesome, that was guareented not to go all 3 rounds the way the guys where swinging, with time and training these guys will be stars in the UFC!
That was one of the best nights of UFC that I can remember. The Brandao/Bermudez fight was crazy. Those guys put on a heck of show. I thought Brandao would have a walk in the park with Bermudez so when Burmudez knocked Brandao down with that short right it got really exciting. The pace was so fast that the armbar seemed to come out of nowhere.
I was also impressed with Prince Albert last night. During the season he hung in there with Dodson better than Bedford and Dillashaw. Albert could just as easily had been in the finale and has a bright future ahead of him in the UFC.
Worst fight of the night were the coaches. Mayhem looked pathetic after round one.
miller’s striking looked horrendous, does he have a boxing coach? I haven’t seen miller fight in years so i didn’t know what to expect but after yesterday performance i don’t know if he belongs in the UFC.
