None of their punches landed flush but Faber was just short on reach but never gave up trying. He got peppered all night long. Never went to the ground.

Prelims were great, main card was fairly boring.Prelims should have been the main card and left it at that and I wouldn't have left dissapointed. Good clean 7 second KO i hard to beat.

For the first time last night I watched the post fight press conference. Dana was entertaining.

The fights between the rednecks at my local circle track were more entertaining.

There was a decent article on Sherdog (of course I can't find it now) about how the timing of Faber's career and highest performances peaked before he was in the UFC where he could get the most exposure and money. Not that it's anyone's fault but he was kind of screwed by the timing. I remember he was an animal in King of the Cage and early WEC days, now of course he's still good but I'd say not the same unstoppable fighter he was.

So the question on Faber would be is was he really that good, or did the UFC exposure bring better fighters to compete with him?

Probably a little of the latter, but in my opinion his footage in his younger days shows very aggressive offense more often and insane stamina. What originally drew me in to being his fan was being impressed by his performances no matter who was in front of him.

I agree that Faber peaked before he stepped into the UFC. I also agree he's much more tolerable since he cut his hair. It's a shame, Dominick Cruz just isn't that likeable as a champ.

So apparently who ever wins more impressively between Machida-Bader, and Rua-Vera will get a title shot.
