Let’s not kid ourselves. The UFC isn’t putting forth much of an effort to give their audiences awesome cards as the television deal with FOX draws to a close. No disrespect to Anthony Smith and Volkan Oezdemir, but they hardly scream “headliners”. And I’m not about to declare UFC Moncton ended up being one of those cards where everything turned out awesome despite no one caring about the card. There were some serious stinkers on there. However, it was far from a disaster either.
The main event delivered in strong manner. The co-main event wasn’t bad either, and there were several other notable contests.
