I have watched 6 of the fights online and was thinking that the UFC must be so happy with the event - all the fights on the main card had finishes (good ones at that) and there were some really exciting fights.
Alexander-Irvin was short and sweet
. Great KO by Irvin, and although the stoppage looked a bit premature the first time around, on the replay you could see that Houston was OUT! Great win by the Sandman.
Didn't like Hamill-Boetsch a lot, as it wasn't a really exciting fight... but Hamill's cardio was obviously a lot better and that's what got him the win.
Nate Diaz was so, so impressive against Kurt Pellegrino - he took a lot of punishment in the first round and a half but then managed to pull off the superb submission. But hopefully Pellegrino gets another chance in the UFC - he looked very competent in the match before being tapped out.
Parisyan and Alves - after Parisyan (in my eyes) won the first round, I was expecting him to eke out a decision... then Alves goes in with that awesome knee and finishes the fight with punches. Wow. Not sure if the stoppage was premature or not but, either way, a very impressive win from Thiago.
Edgar and Maynard was a bit of a mismatch... Maynard was so much bigger and a lot stronger and, unsurprisingly, took the UD. However, Edgar looked feisty and spirited and didn't give up so props to him.
And the main event... JLau definitely won the first round but Florian, obviously, dominated the 2nd... his strikes from the top didn't do a whole lot of damage but it was the accumulation of the blows which won the fight for KenFlo. Very good performance from KenFlo but JLau looked good in the first round so didn't disgrace himself.
On the whole, some very good fights there - I really enjoyed them
