    My overall take on the entire card

    -I am a huge JDS fan I have been since he KO'ed Werdum in his debut but he deserved to lose that fight last night. He had poor cardio, and his hands were low showing no respect for Cain's striking early in the fight it's the reason he got tagged with that huge right hand. He was overconfident, in poor shape, and in general no prepared for the fight Cain showed up hungry and ready he earned that win and deserves to be called the champion it was a great showing.

    -Lauzon and Miller killed it, one of the best fights of the year I enjoyed it from beginning to end. Lauzon is one tough dude to take the punishment he did, bleed as badly as he did, and still keep fighting. Those guys deserve every cent of the bonus they got and deserve a long career in the UFC.

    -Boetsch and Phillipou was exactly what I expected I picked Costa to win that fight I said for a while I felt Boetsch was overrated and just fought to win on points he only goes for it when he's losing the decision (Okami fight) Costa is a natural finisher and a great fighter glad to see him get a win over a high ranked opponent.

    -Okami and Belcher was horrible, Belcher showed terrible fight IQ going for those guillotine chokes and giving up top position to a big strong wrestler that has never been submitted. Okami did nothing but smother and ride out a decision never really threw any hard ground and pound shots never went for a submission. It was a bad fight.

    -Leben and Brunson was horrible as well both guys had about 2 minutes of cardio they should be embarassed of that fight.

    Overall not a great card 2 fights out of 5 on the main card being really good fights aren't enough but the undercard was great I really enjoyed the prelims.

    JDS and Cain are both very great fighters, I thought JDS was going to ko him again but that did not happen but I was happy either way. Their both my favorite fighters. But don't count out Junior he will get his belt back. Great fight. Dos Santos vs Velasqueze 3 will happen.
