Also, there is no need to jump off Guillard's bandwagon yet. I realize he had a ton of hype going into this fight and lost in devastating fashion, but he's still great and still has the tools to beat almost any one.

Ya I'm a little suspicious of whether or not Sonnen was clean though, not saying it would have affected the outcome of the fight. But he did have alot of acne on his back which is usually a sign of steroid use.

I thought it was a pretty good card, but a few fights that I expected to really be exciting weren't. I really expected more. In comparison to some of the other cards this year, UFC 136 gets a B-.
Lauzon derailed the hype train behind Melvin Guillard. Nam Phan/Leonard Garcia definitely should get fight of the night. I want to see Phan/Garcia III. Chael Sonnen looked really good tonight, if that Sonnen shows up to fight Anderson, I think that Anderson is going to have his hands full. Aldo/Florian could've been one of the most exciting fights of the year, but instead Florian made the same mistake against Aldo that he did against Penn. It made the fight boring, and once again Florian failed to gain a UFC Championship. Maynard refused to listen to his corner and it cost him the fight. Edgar showed a ton of heart, and pulled out one of the greatest come from behind victories in MMA history.
