UFC 153 Results

[LWPD]

I didn't expect it going in, but top to bottom UFC 153 was one of the best cards I've seen in a long time. Maia looked slick fighting at 170. Fitch had his back to the wall and stepped up with a Fight of the Year candidate against rising star Erick Silva. Maldonado is a super tough guy, refused to quit. Glover/Jones should be a great fight when it happens. Big Nog forced Herman to tap out, after he had claimed jiu jitsu 'doesn't work'. Anderson Silva stood against the cage hands down before ending it with a knee to the solar plexus!

I was a little disappointed with the main event but the co-main and the co-co-main (Teixeira vs. Maldonado) were very good.
