Palhares -- not being KO'd and hanging in there in the standup and even getting a few sub attempts almost getting 1 or 2 of them. He will be great soon.

Marquardt -- he stood with Kampmann and won that battle, I dont think anyone saw Marquardt winning by TKO.

Rashad -- hes probably not quite top 5 or even top 10 but his gameplan was superb and he knew Chuck struggles when he has to be aggressive and took advantage with quickness and underrated power. I dont see him beating any top 5 or a top 10 but he once again takes KO of the night and that counts for something.

Matt Brown -- even though I feel he lost he got himself out of a lot of bad situations and was exciting, even though he lost he impressed the hell outta me by just coming forward and defending submissions and bad positions off his back.


Palhares impressed me the most overall with his chin and even attempting to stand with Hendo.

Honestly, Franklin did not impress me. In fact, I really am never impressed with him. I'll be surprised if he'll make it deep into the LHW division.

Ive noticed this has been one of the most controversial event in a long time!

Between Rashad and Chuck and Henderson and Palhares and even Brown vs Dong this event has started sooo much crap in just 24 hours!!!!

I think Rashad had excellent footwork, Hendo was pretty dominant too.
