Randy Couture [art credit Cory Gould (c) MMATorch]

It wasn't one of the more highly anticipated UFC events in history, but it turned out to be a moderately entertaining evening of fights. It had dramatic submission wins, a decisive KO, a couple new stars on the rise shining, spilled ice, a big prelim upset, the likely the end of at least one UFC career, and a Tito Ortiz cameo.

MMATorch presents its UFC PPV Team Coverage from many angles including editor-in-chief Jamie Penick's unmatched PPV fight card report including fight results, analysis, and star ratings. Also, supervising editor Wade Keller's live blog commentary, a post-event Audio Roundtable with Keller, senior columnist Shawn Ennis, and contributor Lane Bradford, and more to come including another audio roundtable hosted by Jamie Penick, UFC Press Conference coverage, text roundtable reviews, and more.
