Very good article I must say. I agree with pretty much everything he said. I did think the Huerta fight was a good brawl, but not awesome. In fact not even the best fight of that event, I far more enjoyed the Grove - Belcher fight, which offered much more diversed action imo.
Regarding the Kos fight, I belive my dislike for Diego makes me a little biased, but I didn't think it was as bad as some ppl try to make it. Probably seeing Diego lose made it a lil better in my point of view, but still not a horrible fight.
Also I think the article missed one thing. One thing that makes a fight more interesting is if you have emotions towards one or both of the fighters. If you feel like / dislike / hate / love / whatever towards one or both of the fighters it sure makes it more exciting. For two fighters you have never heard of to be interesting they have to put on a far better show than for example GSP - Hughes to be appreciated, at least in my opinion.
