    Are u serious? i was very disappointed with it. Cage Rage turned out to be a lot more exciting. The only redeeming features UFC had was the energy for the Bisping - Elvis fight, the way Gonzaga tore Mirko apart and then the Sakara fight. Those are the only 3 fights id recommend to anyone and one didnt even air. I wouldnt put anybody through having to watch the rest.

    The Arlovski/Werdum fight was dull bar the first round and that was the one pout of all the fights that I was looking forward to the most. The Machida fight was appalling as is usually the case with 2 counter fighters and the Kongo vs Silva fight was dire also.

    It was a below average event at the very most.....not "absolutely brilliant". Imo absolutely brilliant has to have a card full of exciting bouts and a solid display of technique, not stall fests, wild brawls (which we didnt even get) and lay and pray.


    Even Dana said he was very disappointed by the lack of action and aggression from the fighters.

    If by brilliant, you mean terrible - then I agree.

    Cage Rage owned it in every aspect. More fights.. And more people willing to fight.

    *****possible spoiler******

    didnt see cage rage but i thought ufc 70 was a bit 50-50 not crap but not brilliant a few very very boring fights but iv really got behind bisping for some reason so i really enjoyed his fight after all iv seen of crocop i was shocked with his fight tbh but enjoyed it nonetheless

    also got two of my mates into mma from making them watch it before we went out so thats a good thing

    Spoiler warnings are only supposed to be used when someone posts the result of an event that hasnt aired, he posted that 12 hours after the event aired.

    It aired on ppv-not on normal television..most people will not have seen these fights. and this page was not about the fights, it was about where it was on!

    Agreed, Cage Rage was far more entertaining.

    Men and Motors used to show some of it, maybe it was early Cage Rage but it wasn't up to much i thought. Indeed a few US fighters came over and kicked ass in no time, all knockouts in the first round if I remember. But from your postings it seems to have improved. Is it on Eurosport or something ?
