I have to say that was one of the worst PPV UFC events I have ever seen. I'm highly disapointed.

Well I was right about Kyle Noke hahahaha,

I agree, It was a bit disappointing to be honest but I noticed some things that were not so evident before.

George Sotiropoulus had terrible shooting technique when going for takedowns. He never tried to set up the takedowns with punches, level changes or luring Siver in to make him overcommit. He didn't drive through as Joe Rogan said either. If he can immerse himself in takedowns he could become a true major force at 155.

BJ can wrestle! His gameplan was very similar to GSP's when St.Pierre fought Koscheck the first time. Nobody expected BJ to try and outwrestle Jon Fitch. Great tactics.

Bisping's illegal knee was ridiculous. Jorge's eyes were glazed the rest of the fight. Looked to me as if the ref rushed Rivera back into the fight instead of giving him his full 5 minutes.

The Judging in the Nick Ring- Riki Fukuda fight was horrendous.

I'd never seen a draw before on a main event (at least that i personally watched) I personally think Fitch should have won, simply based on the damage he did to BJ, yes I realize that BJ almost sunk in that choke but it left Fitch unschathed. Whereas Fitches 3rd round grinding session left BJ with a purple face.

Bisping's knee was infuriating to be honest. Professional Athletes, and esspecially martial artists should set an example for others in their conduct. Bispings illegal knee was a disgrace to all Mixed Martial Artists who hold themselves to a higher standard. Also the trash talk was rediculous before the fight on both sides. I realize that there are three types of trash talk. The Friendly Competitive, the Fake (To hype it up), and the real hateful stuff. I feel that it fell into that latter catogory for both fighters. Again reflecting poorly on Mixed Martial Artists everywhere

I agree with you TCMAG. This to me was a fourth type of trash talk. One designed to build up a fighters profile and create publicity for a clothing company. No-one was talking about Jorge Rivera or Ranger Up fightwear before this fight. All the video's Rivera was wearing Ranger up gear, There was Ranger up sponsors at the end and they were on the ranger up youtube account. Their marketing strategy worked a treat.

The reason I believe there was so much hatred from Bisping's side is because the youtube attacks were completely unprovoked and they were trying to hype up their profile and company by degrading and insulting Bisping. They were promoting themselves at Bispings expense.

I can understand Bispings anger but it doesn't excuse the illegal knee or the alleged spitting.

The last title fight between Frankie edgar and Gray Maynard was a draw too.
