For those who tuned in for Saturday’s UFC card and not Mike Tyson vs. Roy Jones Jr. (or you real addicts who watched both), the fighters did an admirable job over-delivering on the promises laid down on paper. Anthony Smith & Miguel Baeza added to their highlight reels, Parker Porter & Josh Parisian kept an impossible pace for 3 rounds, and every fight on the prelims ended inside the distance.
So, has Smith thrown his name back into the ‘mix’ at 205? Is Baeza a welterweight dark horse? And how fast can the UFC get Sumudaerji back in the cage at flyweight?
