Not a huge test for Tanner but he did look good. Tanner is Tanner, great conditioning, well rounded and will be a threat in his division. I wouldn't want to be his next fight thats for sure.

I have always liked him and I think he would give any one a fight at his weight class.

I think that being with Chute Boxe has made Tanner a better fighter. I bet we will see some great things from Tanner in the near future.

Cmon forum!! TANNERS BACK! AND HE WON!!!
wheres all the posts!?! Granted it wasnt vs Horn, that matchup reallllly intrigued me. Just glad hes back in the W's, hes a UFC-er forever.
Hes probably my favorite now with Randy gone, him or Penn/Mir. I'll call it a 3 way tie for now, they all rule to me... WARRIORS !!!

Yeah, I feel bad for Tanner in a way. His great comeback win was overshadowed by a great Tito/Griffen fight, and of course Timmys win. We will see him in the octagin again, against a higher profile opponent this time.

ya, tanner looked very sharp and crisp, he was fluid when he moved, his stand up looks much improved and he landed a sweet ass submission to end it decisively. i was very happy with this fight.

Tanner looked real good. Hopefully no one tries to play down his win just because Levens is relatively unknown. I actually had Levens taking the upset. Not just because of the odds but I really thought he had what it takes to take Tanner out. I'm glad I got proven wrong.

Of course I really really wanted to see Tanner vs Horn, I thought that was an awesome match up. But of course, great to see Tanner back on top. Way to hold that triangle despit the slam/roll. Good stuff.
