I will never root for Nick Ring simply because of his pun nickname of "The Promise."
Never.

Man I bet UFC is ready for this card to be over. Skipping this card, but very interested in the main event.

And Joe Rogan uses subtlety to let you know that he thinks Nick Ring didn't win.

And there are already several threads on sherdog about how McGee got robbed.

Fun fight.
Chael saw that missed back fist and just nodded sadly.

Awesome submission by Riddle. It'll be hard to top that one for submission of the night.

He should have either fought better earlier on or finished Ring. There'd be just as many upset people if McGee had got the win. |

Well I saw it as one of those fights that could be scored either way and it was nothing like the Riki Fukuda fight where Ring clearly lost and Judges where on some sort of drugs when they gave him the win. Go Ebersole! |

A Head above the Class. James Head first to defeat Brian Ebersole via split decision after a less-than-stellar fight.
Ebersole just couldn't get his takedowns to go along with even battles on the feet.

Just going by the play-by-play on MMAjunkie, the Ebersole/Head found sounds pretty boring.

If Ebersole was in the process of trying drop to lightweight why did he take this fight then.

Now Kongo has the chance to prove he isn't just a gatekeeper.
