I didn't watch the chick fight, but other than that I didn't see any stinkers.
Thiago Alves' return was awesome, put on a great show. I was looking forward to it and also the Mein and kabhib's respective matches but ended up enjoying all the preliminary fights (didn't watch the early prelims tho).
Barboza put on a striking clinic, then Cerrone's come back was like "Wow".

Werdum basically took the Carlos Condit vs Nick Diaz road to victory. How'd that work out for him when he finally fought GSP?
I don't know where you drew that comparison from, there are no similarities whatsoever.
Browne has that Hendo factor, where even when he's losing he can knock out the guy out of nowhere. I enjoyed that tension throughout the fight, the fact that werdum was able to take him down and I also enjoyed his striking, it's getting up there.
Just because he didn't leave his face there for Browne to knock out doesn't make it Condit-diaz. If Overeem couldn't overeeem him, werdum sure as hell wasn't going to. He consistently whooped his ass throughout 5 rounds and looked good doing so.
You didn't like the awesome card, nothing I can tell you is going to change your mind.
Different strokes and all...to me it felt like an old school type of cards filled with relevant names and awesome fights, instead of this latest trend of one or two good fights and the rest is filler.
