    Not as many finishes as you would hope for, but the technique, speed, and stamina of the smaller guys was great.

    Cruz is impressive, seems to have all aspects of the game. Pettits looked rather violent, and I think Jorgensen has sealed up a title shot.

    It was great.

    Pettis has become one of my favorite fighters in WEC.

    The WEC is ALWAYS good! It is, by far, my favorite organization. I've never, not once been disappointed by a WEC event. They're insane!

    The next card is absurdly stacked.

    Jose Aldo (c) vs. Manvel Gamburyan
    Miguel Torres vs. Charlie Valencia
    Jamie Varner vs. Donald Cerrone
    Chan Sung Jung vs. George Roop
    Leonard Garcia vs. Mark Hominick
    Mike Brown vs Cole Province
    Ed Ratcliff vs. Chris Horodecki
    Antonio Banuelos vs. Chad George
    Alex Karalexis vs. Zhang Tie Quan
    Clint Godfrey vs. Demetrious Johnson

    dominic cruz has pretty good elusiveness, though his movement is good for mma he is rarely in a position to counter and misses with most of his counterstrikes, often wildly.

    His takedown abillity is amazing and has a ton of heart, that knee that cut open the bridge of his nose looked painful, he did well to fight through it.

    Cruz has fighting intelligence like taking down his opponent at the end of the round to finish strong- smart.

    I was impressed I would like to see him fight faber or torres.

    I think he would take Faber in a rematch.

    after watching pettis with his top of the line flashy striking and amazing submissions/sub defense i honestly feel he will beat Bendo and go on to be the next big thing.
