UFC on Fox 16 was, on balance, a great night of fights. Joe Lauzon, out of the goodness of his heart, decided not to beat Takanori Gomi to death. Edson Barboza and Paul Felder had a spirited game of "let's take turns kicking each other really hard and pretending not to notice." And Renan Barao answered definitively the question of whether 14 months was enough for him to prepare and execute a different game plan against T.J. Dillashaw (answer: no).
But with every high comes the low, and in this case there are storm clouds on the horizon for both the men's and women's bantamweight divisions.
