It's a shame that one of the bouts that got cancelled was Silva vs. Story. The main event is badass, the co-main is all right, and I want to see Brazilian Cowboy fight again, but it's a pretty mediocre card otherwise, not really the UFC's fault. At least it's free.

They should give Tumenov the fight he wanted with Rick Story.
