The Wand/Leben fight made me sad. I was really pulling for Wanderlei to restart his career but I didn't plan on him coming at Leben straight with zero defense. I mean everyone gets caught now and then but a straight rush, even if you are Wanderlei Silva, is never advisable.

Condit's flying knee knockout of Dong Hyun Kim was just so much fun to watch. Exceptional timing

Tito Ortiz.... man what a douchebag! I was hoping he would lose and retire but he got one over on poor Bader. Bader just gave him too much respect IMO and didn't go in there in an aggressive manner.

I assumed the 45-50 was a judge in Faber's pocket. I had a feeling for it being a close fight there would be no way for Faber to lose, they want to plaster his face on everything.

As for Ortiz, he has been and will continue to be a douche. He got lucky, and this only forces him to fight another top level opponent who will crush him.

Condit in my opinion is the 2nd best welterweight out there. He was jobbed over in the Kampmann decision, and should be in line for a title shot.

Overall a great card.
