Anyone else watching this.
Aready 4th fight in the main card and I have a feeling that Miocic will take the main event with a 2 round TKO as Struve will get careless and Hardy will beat Sadollah VIA UD.

Well guess my prediction was wrong as Struve pulls out another comeback victory.

Overall it was a good show. A good win for Hardy, an awesome knockout by Pickett, and the main event was pretty good. Plus, Gunnar Nelson and Jimi Manuwa kicked Kyle Kingsbury's ass. Good stuff.

Struve picked up the win? That's quite a surprise to me.

I agree with all of this, these were definitely my favorite parts of the show. I also liked the Sass/Wiman fight even though it was short and I was suprised not by the fact that Wiman won, but how he won. My only knock on this show is I really didn't care for the first half of the main show. But it definitely made up for it in the 2nd half and became another solid Fuel show. |

I was really hoping for Sadollah to pick up a big win. Other than that, it was a pretty good show. Even though I was pulling for Miocic, I also like Struve and thought he did a good job with the comeback win.
Also, it sucked to see Ludwig go down like that.

Struve now apparently wants to fight Fabricio Werdum. Makes sense. Had he said that he was ready for a title shot, i would've disagreed.
Also, Struve started out as a Light Heavyweight. Being 7 ft tall and 205 lbs ? Holy crap.

Sigh... Hardy was this close to firing. THIS close. Kinda surprised everyone in the damn company isn't rocking the mohawk. It gives tenure.

I mean, try to let anyone else lose 5 freaking fights. Dana made a comment after the fight that Hardy was "finally looking like a mixed martial artist" which is just fantastic considering that they squeezed him into a title shot X amount of time ago. |

You're right. He probably wasn't 7 ft. tall then. I hope not, anyway.
