Usually, the UFC is a dart board at which most MMA analysts and fans hurl their harshest critiques of how the promotion handles its business. But this week the UFC deserves a pat on the back for three of the decisions they made:

I've got to agree with that. Jesse Taylor is such a boring fighter. That would have made the finale terrible. The rematch between C.B and Amir will be insane:)

Props to the ufc

Jesse earned his way to the finale, boring or not. He made a poor decision, and is paying for it dearly. Props to the UFC for doing the right thing in making Jesse take accountability for his actions, not putting on a better fight.

I think kicking Jesse off the show is going to end up being a good thing for him...He has said he has cut alcohol out of his life, so it is a good thing that is happening now instead of something horrible happening down the road from his drinking problems and him doing something stupid that could ruin his life or someone elses.
