Ryan Bader defeats Vinicius Magalhaes via TKO (Strikes) Round 1
This fight completely surprised me. I actually really like wrestlers, but Vinnie's BJJ is off the hook. He is the best BJJ fighter in mma today, even better than Noguera. He should have never lost this fight, but as soon as he decided to stand with Bader, I guess it was over. Vinnie did the same thing in the house, stood up with all his opponents at the beginning, instead of taking to the ground right away. This time he paid for it.
Wilson Gouveia defeats Jason Macdonald via TKO (Strikes) Round 1
Gouveia caught one of my favourite fighters with a nice combo and that was it. Had the potential of being fight of the night, instead we got served a quick KO.

This was the Knock Out of the night. I actually missed the all fight, but I ended up catching Anthony's super kick. I wasnt surprised here, Johnson should have won their first time out, but completely got ripped off.
Junie Browning defeats David Kaplan via Submission (Armbar) Round 2
I dont know how Junie is still in the UFC. I think Dana White has a gay crush on him...seriously. He kicked out guys for way lesser things, yet he keeps a guy who threatens people with bottles and tried to drown Bader in the pool. With that aside, this guy is an amazing fighter. Even in his fight with Efrain you could see his skills. His stand up his phenomenal. On the other hand, David Kaplan, the guy who was one of the favourites to win the UF, hasnt shown anything but a decent chin.
Krzysztof Soszynski defeats Shane Primm via submission (kimura) in round 2
Well, Krysztof said he was going to go home and practice on his BJJ and I guess he did just that, because he submited Primm with a great kimura.
Eliot Marshall defeats Jules Bruchez via submission (rear naked choke) in round 1
Eliot made short work of Jules. This guy has great potential. I expect Marshall to be around the UFC for a long time.
Efrain Escudero defeats Phillippe Nover via Unanimous Decision
Efrain was actually my pick here. I like wrestlers and I knew he was going to control the fight. Also, Nover didnt look confident like in other fights. However, Nover did look more confident in the final round and almost caught Efrain with a crazy choke. It doesnt matter tho, both these guys are going to be great. This was the Fight of the night for me.
