It wasn’t UFC London from the previous week, but UFC Columbus was a hell of an event in its own right. The main event wasn’t exactly a heavily anticipated contest for MMA fandom, but it overdelivered by a wide berth in terms of expectations as Curtis Blaydes showed off a wrinkle many weren’t sure he possessed. There were several other fights of import within the top ten of those divisions and most of them lived up to the expectations. Plus, one of the more entertaining slugfests in recent memory took place between reputed action fighters Matt Brown and Bryan Barberena.
