End of round five. Very close round. No way should Aldo lose on points. Great showing by Lamas.

All judges score the fight 49-46. Lamas did not lose four rounds of this fight.

135 lb title fight next. The main event is champion Renan Barao defending against The California Kid, Urijah Faber. Faber dominated WEC, but hasn't done captured the gold since moving to UFC. Barao is a bad dude, but I would like to see Faber finally reach the top of the mountain.

And Barao wins by stoppage in four minutes of the first round. Not a way Faber wanted to go out. Herb Deen is the best in the business at calling fights. Faber got hurt really bad a couple of times. I don't think it would have gotten any better for him after that much damage.

Faber would have probably still lost, but I hate when they stop title matches on the early side. Let it go.

Congrats to Barao on retaining and beating Faber's ass for the entire fight.

Missed the fights, had to work. From what I read, sounds like White wasn't impressed by Overreem. Said he was crappy, and then called out a retired guy, not his best moment. Sounded like the main event was stopped early. I see there were 10 decisions, which usually means that fights weren't that great.

Some of the upcoming cards are looking thin. I'm not sure they're stacked enough to do all the PPV's and the Fight Night cards. That last Fox card in January was pretty embarassing, especially for a big city like Chicago.
