2nd round was the closest, I wouldn't be surprised to see judges give that to Wineland.  But there's no way you could score it any worse than 29-28 Benavidez.

Pretty decent fight.  Benavidez looked sharp on his feet, even if a little awkward at times.  Wineland was gun shy, which led to his defeat.

6-1 in the prelims :D (gives Vermola the evil eye -_-). Now I hope I do really well in the main card :D

Fantastic prelims. Lets hope the main card delivers some fireworks.

Anybody have a link to a site where I can watch the main card once the pre-lims are up?  I don't have the Versus channel here.

Sorry @rwlawman ... it's not as big of a deal with free broadcasts, so we're a little more lax, but the Versus broadcasts are still technically copyrighted and we don't want anyone posting links to streams here

Man.. I'm really excited/nervous about the Cowboy/charles fight.  Damn I wish one didn't have to lose!  I think Dolloway Subs him eventually @Jay.

@RWLawman, only UFC.tv but i think it will only work in UK as when i looked on the site earlier it said it would be blacked out in USA, Brazil and Greece.

its a free legal stream for UK (maybe elsewhere) as ESPN weren't showing it
