    The winner of the main event has been promised a title shot against Cain in Mexico, so putting this fight on free TV is a great way to hype a PPV fight. That's the way it should be done.

    I think Browne is gonna wreck Werdum. Browne has really improved as a fight over the past year or two. He went from being a potential middle of the pack fighter to fighting for a title shot. He is coming off of impressive wins over Burnett and Overeem. A Cain\Browne fight would be huge and definitely one worth shelling out the price of the PPV for.

    The most interesting fight of the night for me is Dos Anjos vs. Kabobnabobnabobnabob. The winner of this fight is right in the middle of title contention.

    Browne made me a believer with his destruction of Barnett. I would be extremely high on Werdum given his last 8 wins if not for that embarrassing display against Overeem.

    Hard to believe Thiago Alves hasn't fought in over 2 years, but he looked as good at the weigh-in as I've ever seen him.

    Werdum is excellent. He`s clearly the number 2 guy in the HW division.

    I said before that i would pick Werdum over Cain. Werdum is no joke. He needs to work on his cardio tho cause Cain doesnt get tired.

    Cain vs. Werdum will be in Mexico

    That was a gret card

    VERY impressed at how Camuchi defended and didn't tap on the choke. That was impressive

    I would love for Werdum to take the fight. One of the best and one of my favourite fighters ever.

    I just don't see it. Cain is an athletic freak and will outstrike him on the feet and there's very little chance of Werdum getting a submission unless it's some fluke scramble or guillotine.

    I'd still rank JDS as the number 2 guy. Werdum looked great tonight, though. He surprised me with his striking dominance. He definitely deserves the title shot.

    Just read that the main card drew 1.99 million viewers on FOX. That's fantastic considering it was up against NHL and NBA playoff games.

    werdum beat the crap outta browne, but browne's defensively not a very good fighter. if anything he's a tough guy w/ limited ability but knows endure punishment and still be dangerous throughout. werdum showed pretty good versatility in beating up roy nelson i thought. overeem was THIS close from taking out browne in the first round.
