Didn't think the main card was that bad, although I did drift off a bit towards the end of Faber/Barao. I think the main event was a pretty bad matchup, Barao couldn't KO Faber and Faber couldn't do anything with Barao. Just leaving 5 rounds of not very much.
Thought the ref would have more intervention in Kongo/Jordan, the people on here that train will know how taxing working from the cage is, and probably respect what was going on in this fight a bit more but on a UFC main card the people want to see at least some sparks.
The Ebersole fight was a weird one too. Head's submission skills were being touted for submitting Papy Abedi which I didn't understand because Abedi's ground game isn't really anything special. Far as I could work out Head just wanted to brawl and Ebersole was desperate to get it to the ground. Surely after all the double legs were stuffed in the first round anyone with a brain would have switched to another takedown? Was really confused by this as I quite liked Brian Ebersole before.
I was pretty happy with Boetsch/Lombard, I'm a big Boetsch fan though and think he's going to be a bit of a dark horse at middleweight. Lombard seemed jittery, I'd like to see him fught Munoz next and see if he's a bit more riled up for that one (Munoz critisized him for being a can crusher in Bellator).
Was very impressed with Riddle too, that submission was brilliant. I was betting on Clements at the start of the fight because I thought Riddle was just a spaz who turned up brawling but I really warmed to him during this fight, seemed a lot more technical.
