Just watched it. My thoughts....
Clementi v Guillard: Not a bad fight, I thought guillard may win, his ground game is horrible though. Was funny after the fight.
Sokoudjou v Machida: I expected it to go pretty similar to this, except ithought Machida would win by decision. I like Machida, his technique is great, he was so dominant here, and must be a contendow now with that win.
Palalei v Sanchez: How crap was Palalei - i looked at his record and he has a damn good one, but he was so dreadfull it was baffling me. He made Sanchez look good, but credit where its due, Sanchez did do pretty decent.
Liddel v Silva: WOW. That was an amazing fight, lived up to the expectations and more. I may have to download that fight and watch it again tomorrow. I had Chuck winning 29-28, Wanderlei winning the middle round. Was class fight, all the way through. You better believe Liddel is back.
St Pierre v Hughes: How dominant was St Pierre! I expected him to win, but not with that ease. Took Hughes down at will and shrugged off the Hughes takedown attempts. Made Hughes, one of the best welterweights ever, look poor. He's gonna smash Serra.
Overall: 9/10. All good fights cept for the Palalei v Sanchez one (thanks Palelei for stopping it getting the 10), but i'm just so happy that the Silva-iddel fight lived up to the hype, i had a horrible deeling it would be a snoozefest, similar to the Liddel v Jardine fight, but boy was i wrong. Amazing fight, i could watch it over and over.
I'm very happy with the card, lived up to my high expectations. Can anyone beat St Pierre? He's looked unbeatable in his last 2 fights.
Also suprisingly the prelims sounded a bit crap, i've read the commentary for them and they all sound pretty boring, which is a bit of a suprise, as many times the prelims are more exciting than the main cards.
