Main Card (PPV)…
Fight #1 Josh Burkman
(27-10) vs. Hector Lombard (34-4-1) (Lombard via Unanimous Decision): This was a fight that saw 2 veteran
fighters with over 40 KO’s between them. It lived up to its billing as a good
fight, but at the end of the day the beast that is Lombard gets the win via
decision. Lombard pretty much did what he wanted and ended up taking the fight…
Fight #2 Kyoji
Horiguchi (14-1) vs. Louis Guadinot (6-3-1) (Horiguchi via Unanimous Decision):
Another good fight but one sided. Horiguchi was really aggressive through
all 3 rounds and was just the better fighter. Guadinot showed flashes of being
able to slow down Kyoji as proven by the unanimous decision. Overall awesome
fight…
Fight #3 Brad Tavares
(12-3) vs. Nate Marquart (33-13-2) (Tavares via Unanimous Decision): Another
3 round decision, the third straight tonight. Again a fight that most thought
that Tavares was going to win, so the result wasn’t much of a surprise. Tavares
dominated the fight but Marquart proved that the division is deep and neither
of these guys is going anywhere…
Fight #4, Co Main
Event: Donald Cerrone (25-6-1) vs. Myles Jury (15-0) (Cerrone via Unanimous
Decision): First round goes to Cerrone after a dominating performance in
which he had Jury on the defense the whole round. Round 2 could have went
either way as neither fighter really took control of the round. The final round
was dominated by Cerrone topped with the ending (Jury on his back and Cerrone literally
kicking his ass). Overall a great fight and a hard 1st loss for Jury…
Fight #5 Light Heavyweight
Title Fight, Main Event: © Jon “Bones” Jones (20-1) vs. Daniel Cormier (15-0) (Jones
retains via Unanimous Decision): The first round was split as both men had
their moments, but if I had to give it to someone I would give it to Jones by a
sliver. Although Cormier had the strong finish to the round I think again it
was Jones who came out the victor in this round. Round 3 was exciting mainly because
both men really shined but it was Cormier that shined brightest. In a round
dominated by Jones I think he may have just sealed the fight, I have him up 3
rounds to 1. Final round goes to Jones and there is still bad blood between these
two as Cormier falls short…
Overall PPV Score: B+
- I had to give it a B+ mainly because there were no knockouts on the main
card. Im sorry but it is boring to me to watch a entire PPV in which every
fight goes the distance. Oh well maybe we will get a knockout at 183…
