Bigfoot just went 5 full rounds with Hunt with his striking defense looking better than ever before while Arlovski won a undeserved decision in a sloppy borefest with Schaub. So this being MMA, and Bigfoot being an impossible fighter to predict, of course Arlovski wins by KO in round 1. 

Despite that hard to predict main event result I believe this is the highest I've ever ranked in picks.

I was at the event, and if there is one thing the audience will remember aside from Bigfoot being KO'd it is the state in which Igor Araújo left the arena. Cageside doctors failed to wake him up for several minutes, and when he did wake up, he could barely move. He ended up leaving the arena in a stretcher and went straight to the hospital. I am hoping for good news soon. The most hardcore knockout I've ever seen live by far, Igor's head was already bouncing on the floor when Sullivan hit him with the two final blows.

Well I really hope Araujo is okay, I hate seeing guys get head trauma, that's pretty much the worst injury you can get in this sport, since it stays forever.
