Fortunes changed for five at UFC on FOX 15

If there is a template for what a company would want from a UFC on FOX show, you could argue Saturday was it.

While the show appears to be closer to a double than a home run ratings wise, what you want out of a FOX special is star-making performances of fighters on the way up, who come out of it with fans wanting to see them in higher profile matches, particularly on pay-per-view.

The main event delivered just that, and the post-fight antics did even more. Past a few hardcores looking down the line, a fight between middleweight champion Chris Weidman and Luke Rockhold, if it was to happen, looked like it would feel like another title defense.
