I thought the Guida/Griffin fight was one of the best fights ever. The others were decent, but I was disappointed in Okami's lack of pressure. He didn't do shit until the last two minutes of the third round. Franklin did everything he needed to win that fight while chasing Okami around the ring. Overall, it was a good UFC and with the several friends I had to help pay for it, it was hardly a rip-off.

Heck, I miss the occasional freakshow fight, and I really miss the Japanese fans. For the most part, they were downright awesome.

It was pretty so-so, but Griffin-Guida was a fight of the year candidate, Davis continues to impress, and for the record, Okami lost that fight clear as day.
