UFC Vegas 34 has come and gone, playing out very much as expected. Jared Cannonier defeated Kelvin Gastelum in the main event, Mark O. Madsen squeaked past the eternally youthful Clay Guida, and Alexandre Pantoja earned a title shot by disposing of Brandon Royval in one hell of a barnburner. Not everything on the card was brilliant, but it was hard to ask for a better start to the night, the first four fights delivering four finishes in which every one of the victims went to sleep. Unfortunately, it did set up the rest of the card to be a bit of a letdown by comparison, but that doesn’t mean the card as a whole was a disappointment.
