Last night was the ultimate fighter finale, where (C)Joanna Jedrzejczyk vs (#1)Claudia Gadelha fought for the straw weight title. Im a big JJ fan, I wasnt to fond of her talking so much during the show but what a great fight. The two of them showed more heart and skill then most of the men in the ufc. I was astonished by JJ's ability to move her hips for escapes and able to get to the fence and get back to her feet. Claudia showed incredible strength and under hooks where she nearly took JJ down every time she got them in. All in all the champ showed why the belt is hers, great skill on the ground, fastest hands in mma and cardio that never ended. She could have gone 10 rounds, she was quicker in the 5th round then she was in the 1st and she was get handled!

Great card, sucks about Jones, what a let down, that seems to be his thing these days. He's looking at a 2 year suspension for failing a doping test for a banned substance. Is not a rec drug, a supplement that Jon's camp says they think was in a tainted batch (of course).
The Tate fight is going to be tough for her, but honestly I did not think she was going to beat Holme's so Im not going to underestimate her again.
Brock must be broke, he's says he's back because he doesnt want to be remembered the way things ended because of his sickness, so he's looking for redemption. I watched an interview with him and it did make sense, he was champ but the heavy weight class has evolved since his day and they are putting him up Hunt who is I feel at his best....ever. I was a big fan of his in Pride, but he always seemed to give up to me back then, now he is confident and dropping HW's like flies. I cant wait to see this
THE FIGHT OF THE NIGHT!!
Edgar vs Aldo, two of my favorite fighters. Edgar is at his best also and Aldo is at a career determining point, this will decide which direction he will go. Aldo was undefeated for a decade until the McGregor loss and I think (hope) he will come back with toughness and fierceness that he lacked in the past. We all know he has the skill, but some times I just think he wasnt mean enough, would ease up on guys like in the Faber fight.
The prelims are even great, I cant wait to see Dillashaw fight, his foot movement and angles are incredible, so much fun to watch.
So what do you guys think and who's going to watch it, Im in for sure.
