JDS has one hell of a chin. After Velasquez hit that big right hand early in the first round I thought that it was over and it would have been a nice constrast to how their first fight went. No idea how Cain couldn't finish him after that because JDS was out of it because of the broken jaw. He was hit so many times on the chin yet didn't go down other than that first big punch. What also impressed me as well was how he just stood up everytime Cain took him down, no matter how much punishment he took he could easily get out of it and stand up everytime. JDS really needs to work on his cardio though, was gassed so early. Cain needs to learn how do to something when he has a fighter on the ground, it was frustrating to see him take JDS down and then just hug him, never tried to submit and didn't try any ground and pound. Can't wait for the third installment.
Miller vs. Lauzon was great and one of the best fights of the year. Lauzon is such a tough guy and the fact that he didn't just hang in but actually got in some offense as well in later rounds said a lot about him. I was hoping that he was going to be successful with that leg hook at the end as it would have been a spetacular finish. The amount of blood that he lost was crazy and they both had a nice red tinge after the fight.
Good seeing Costa get another win, five in a row now. Boestch won the first but Costa looked the better fighter after that and picks up a big win.
Okami/Belcher was so similar to their first fight in the UFC six years ago. Okami did enough to win every round but it was a pretty stale fight overall, expected more out of Belcher.
Opener was pretty weak, Leben looked a shadow of his former self and he showed that if he can't strike he doesn't have much in the arsenal. Good for Brunson to start with a win but it was't very impressive, his reaction after the win was over the top.
With the prelims the judges must have had a few too many. No idea how one judge thought that Guillard won 30-27, at a stretch he won one round not three. Also no idea how one judge gave it to Pickett in his fight against Wineland. Great win for Duffee as well, nice comeback win for him.
