Fight of the Night: Forrest Griffin vs. Rashad Evans - it was really an exciting match.
Knockout of the Night: Quinton “Rampage” Jackson
Thoughts:
Rashad Evans is underrated, he has a lot of tools, he is a great striker with great wrestling skills. He will be a force in the UFC. As of now he is the UFC light heavyweight champion and maybe the best light heavyweight in the world. He boasts wins over Michael Bisping, Chuck Liddell, and Forrest Griffin.
I'm sure that Forrest Griffin will be back, to figth whoever is available. If Shogun beats Mark Coleman there could be a re-match.
I never expected Nogueira to get his a** kicked so badly. Mir just tore him like a rag doll. The real Nog didn’t show up, maybe this is it for him and he is past his prime. We should get the Mir vs. Lesnar re-match.
I didn’t expect Rampage to KO Wanderlei either. It looks like Rampage could get a title shot.
C.B. Dolloway looked impressive in his win over a very good Mike Massenzio. He showed good wrestling, good striking and good submission defense.
Cheick Kongo really impressed in his vicious TKO over Al-Turk
Okami is deserves the number one contender now that he walked through Dean Lister
Pat Barry has really good kicks and is a force in the heavyweight division
Antoni Hardonk keeps winning. He may move up some rankings
Matt Hamill really impressed and probably knocked Reese Andy out of the UFC along with Dan Evensen, Ryo Chonan and Mike Wessel
