Fixed.
Anyone that doubts Fedor is best lb per lb is a F'ing n00b. Seriously. I actually like Fedor more now after his loss, then prior. I always thought that Fedor was the best lb per lb, but just to see how humble he is after loosing on Saturday, shows to me how much of a stand up guy he is.

Velasquez > Carwin > Lesnar UFC only of course.
Aki vs Leben = wow
Might be better then the main event. Especially if Lesnar just sits on Carwin... |

Sad that Akiyama lost, but the guy needs a gas tank. For that matter, so do a bunch of other dudes on this card, most notably Shane Carwin. That was just embarrassing.
I wasn't very high on either Carwin or Lesnar going into this fight, and I feel like the fight justified my feelings about both guys pretty well. Carwin just isn't a very good fighter. Hitting hard will only get you so far when your technique is mediocre and you have no cardio. On the other hand, Lesnar couldn't take down Carwin until he was totally gassed out, and he panics every time he gets hit. You have to admire his toughness, and his developing submission skills, but I still don't really see him as an elite heavyweight. His next fight will show a lot, because Velasquez is the real deal.
I also enjoyed Gerald Harris' great knockout slam of Dave Branch. I noticed that Harris was flashing my boy King Mo's hybrid boxing-wrestling stance, as well. It was a good win, but it's time for him to get on the main card instead of fighting debuting fighters, even talented ones like Branch.
George Sotiropoulos also impressed, even though I thought he dropped the last round. He soundly outboxed Pellegrino for the overwhelming majority of the fight, and also took it to him on the ground in the second round. I didn't really understand Pellegrino's gameplan in the fight. It seemed to me like the only way he could really win was by working his top game, but he didn't even seriously pursue a takedown until the third round.
Even though 116 wasn't the greatest card on paper, it definitely delivered in terms of action. |

it was better than most cards.
I was disappointed in Sexyama and Carwin, but I was entertained. |
