8 out of 11 go to decision. ugh.

I wasn't happy with the main event either. I was happy with who won, but didn't like the pace of the fight.

Unimpressive night IMO based on the hype and build up. Even the animosity seemed staged after the fact.

Glad Sonnen got his ass kicked. I'd like to see Silva do that to GSP next.
