They are now saying the call between Couture vs. Vera was controversial? I don't really see it...I thought Couture controlled the fight and landed more and was more aggressive at times. Vera did land some hard kicks.
Yeah Randy won that fight hands down. Vera won the second round but the first and third rounds were Randy's. First good decsion in a long time.

Yeah Randy dictated the pace of the fight. Not the most exciting thing but, he did exactly what he wanted to do.

Let Rua get his belt from the unibrow douche bag that has it first, then Couture gets a shot. Randy can defenitly make a run for the belt. Still Rua deserves to beat the hell out of Sally Pee's Her Pants or what ever that Fankenstein looking tools name is first.
What about Bisping? He looked really good. Kang is no slouch, I actually picked Kang winning this fight. Looks like Hendo knocked some of the ego out of Bisping and he really picked it up after that tough KO. You know Bisping has acted like a jerk in the past but I just can't help but like the guy. Kinda like a Tito thing, I guess.
Vera should be upset. I think he could have done better. The decision was a good one, but Randy had a tough time and I just think Vera was too inexperienced to be able to capitalize on the devistating kicks and his larger size. Randy just man-handled him and that was the deciding factor in the fight. It wasn't pretty, but a win is a win. I know Randy doesn't want to face Vera again anytime too soon.
All-in-all, this was a very good card. Especially considering it was free on Spike. Got to give the UFC some credit there. Maybe they were forced into this by the free airing of the Strikeforce event, but still a good card.

Yeah I was impressed with Bisbing he got dropped and kept his composure. I think it's hilarious that he wanted Wandy though. Wandy would have killed him
Randy is awesome. Especially what he's doing at his age against much younger fighters. Still, the time catches up with everybody. He barely squeezed out a decision win, after losing two previous fights. He's not fighting for a title anytime soon.

After Randy's fight with Vera, he did mention how fighting Machida would be an interesting fight for him. Of course, Machida will be having rematch with Shogun as soon as he's healed from his hand surgery. If Shogun wins, Machida vs. Couture would be interesting as Machida climbs back up to title contention but if Machida wins, Couture is not going to get the title shot while others are waiting.
