They switched the McDonald/Soto fight with the Lawlor/Weidman fight. I would have demoted the Bader/Brilz fight instead.

Results:

Castillo 1st Round TKO (0-1)
Baczynski 2nd Round Sub (1-1)
Torres Decision (2-1)
Tibau Decision (3-1)
Weidman 1st Round Sub (4-1)

Spike:
McDonald 1st Round KO (5-1)
Bader 1st Round KO (6-1)

Main:
Bonnar Decision (6-2)
Kampmann Decision (7-2)
Faber 2nd Round Sub (8-2)
Silva 2nd Round TKO (8-3) I agree with Joe that it wasn't a very good stoppage but really it was basically over.
Henderson Decision (8-4) My lord, what a battle. Rua took every bit of it. Then he dished it out in return. I had it as a draw as he did enough to keep the 3rd from being 10-8 and there is no way the 5th wasn't a 10-8 for Shogun. If only this was the fight that was for free on Spike last week.

I have no reasoning or excuse for picking Matt Brown. No idea what I was thinking when I made that at the beginning of the week. Brain fart.

I didn't see it, but I saw Chandler won, and I am still in shock over it.

Yeah, I watched it. Excellent fight. People were saying fight of the year candidate only to have Henderson v. Maurico happen about an hour later. Astonishing night of fights.

Kudos to Shogun for an Edgar like come back from the brink..what a heart, what a chin, but had to give it Hendo just on damage done and who put the other in trouble most often, even mounted and exhausted hendo was still trying to work for a better position and didn't look that damaged...both legends in my book

[buckeyeguy]

love to see hendo fight jonjones.. i think hendo has more chances of winning than shogun.
