Every single fight was amazing. This has to be the best if not close to best overall PPV card in UFC history. So much blood and each fight could have gone either way. Seriously could not even recognize MacDonald at the end of that fight. Shattered nose for sure which ended the fight for him. He had to check to see if it was still there. That fight was by far the best ufc fight I have ever seen. Was hoping MacDonald would have pulled that one off though. Also, thought Mendez had that fight if he could have just kept McGregor in that chokehold. Mendez is a classy guy and was extremely respectful in his defeat as well.

Can't wait til the Rousey fight August 1st.
