We are 12 days away from the final UFC card of the year. Since it was announced, it has taken some blows due to injury and lost some of it's star power. Still, it's an overall solid card and should deliver. Card still isn't final with Jamie Varner vs Melvin Guillard being moved over from the TUF 16 Finale and nobody being able to explain how Erik Perez vs Byron Bloodworth is so high on the Preliminary order. I'll post the full card, with the correct bout order, as soon as it's available.

He looks impressive at 239lb. Especially compared to Cain at 240lb.

Everyone made weight so, barring any late minute injuries, the card is 100% a go.

I expected the main event result, just didn't expect it to go the full 5 rounds.

I would've bet my house it wasn't going to last 2 rounds, let alone 5. It was a pretty impressive fight and overall one of the cards of the year.

Dos santos didn't seem to be throwing the quantity of punches he usually does.. But then again he probably was overwhelmed by cains approach this time
