    That was pure domination. Benson looks like a beast and if he can stay in this division he could become as dominant as GSP and Silva.

    Diaz lost but he ate some shots. Surprised he actually made it through

    What was your question?

    Edit: Found it. I would pick Rory in a rematch with Condit. I don't think that Condit did nearly as bad as a lot of people think their first fight, but Rory showed that he was more than on par with Condit at that point of their careers. I believe that since, Rory has improved exponentially, while Condit is about at the same level as he was then. Condit is great, but Rory may just be better at this point.

    I missed the whole card except for the Main Event, #'n loved it.

    Bendo is a #'ing G, throwing his ass around like a big brother.

    Errr........

    Hold the train. Doesn't this highlight how good Edgar is? Aldo upset anyone?

    Card was fantastic. The only low point was the Mike Easton fight.

    Edgar was never good enough for Bendo, but I'm interested to see if he can still perform at FW.

    This is what I was thinking. It makes Edgar versus Aldo more intriguing.

    I called my brother during the BJ Penn fight, and it sounded like he wouldn't last the distance. I read that Rory MacDonald was being arrogant or flashy in there.

    Can't say that I'm happy, but Rory gets my respect.

    Edgar was clearly robbed in their rematch.

    Robbed? Don't make me laugh, he didn't take that title back, just ran around in circles from what I recall.

    I think that many would agree that he proved that he was good enough for Bendo in their second fight.

    Coming up short is not good enough imo, but it's been a while.. I may have to see this one again.
