The fight card itself was decent. Most of the fights seemed to be good matches. One fight did seem to be fixed: One competitior had a very tight rear naked choke, on the ground, on the other fighter then all of a sudden just let him go. The fighter who almost was choked out won..(?) The last fight was very disappointing. Silva was so much better than Cote that it looked like Ali v Frazier II. Then all of a sudden Cote gets a cramp or pull and the fight is stopped. Injuries happen so that is understandable but the fight never was a contest. Cote should not have been in that octagon with Silva to start.
Also, it is a much better event on TV than in person. The sights and the sounds are so much more vivid.
