Well damn, that Paulo Thiago KO was out of nowhere lol.
And yeah this has been one hell of a card so far.

Well that was ahell of a way of to make your UFC debut.
Stann vs Sakara is next and I don't see it ending well for Sakara.

Great performance by Gustafsson, [Mike Goldberg] similar to that of Jon Jones! [/Mike Goldberg]
But seriously, he impressed here.

Good win for Gustafsson.
Can't wait to see who faces off against next.

Am I the only one bothered with Mike Goldberg constantly comparing Gustaffson with Jon Jones? Just because both are big, young light heavyweights with potential doesn't mean that one might end up like the other in some point of their careers. Gustaffson showed today that he's a good boxer and, while a Jones/Gustaffson seems to be one fight that UFC might come up with in the near future, the comparison looks shoe-horned in to put Jones as someone to emulate.

Yeah, a little. I'm also bothered that he keeps saying BahaDURRRRzada. Knock it off with the weird emphasis.

He also said "Izcuerdo" instead of "Izquierdo" during the preliminary fights. Kenny Florian was good on commentary, though.

Ok... I hate the west coast feed on these things, had to avoid everything. Still had Paulo Thiago spoiled... slightly, still devastating.
And is it just me or does Thiago Silva look like a really buff Brazilian Mark Strong?

I can say that he sounds like Tommy Wiseau, though I can't really say he looks like Mark Strong.
