After five straight weeks of events at the APEX, it would be hard to argue that the UFC’s return to Las Vegas was anything but a success.
That’s right, even as a proud member of the MMA media that has been working tirelessly to shut down the UFC since mid-March, even I have to tip my cap to the promotion for putting on a series of entertaining shows that for the most part appear to have left fighters and fans satisfied. Whether you were looking for dramatic finishes, clickbait headlines (again, us), or Fight of the Year contenders, there was—as cliche and carny as it sounds—something for everyone.
