UFC 159: Jones vs. Sonnen

UFC 159...
I'm not entirely sure how I come across in these reviews anymore since not many people give me a sense of feedback but I'll continue to go as long as I think I might be helpful to someone out there. I lead with that mainly because I feel like maybe I'm being overly critical of this card but I was just not feeling it. It's kind of unfortunate too as I had specifically requested off so that I could enjoy the card from top to bottom, which included the not so common prelim card which I've had to give up a few times on the last few cards.

This feels as good a place as any for a lead in, the prelims are a mixed bag of sorts. The first two fights of the evening were fairly one-sided, even though the first fight had some a decent comeback in the second. Largely speaking they are pretty much grappling matches. The third prelim is a closer fight before a third round finish but it's not exactly a barn burner. Most impressive to me in the prelims was the match between Sara...

it was an okay event i've seen worse.

awesome fight
This was the best card of 2013 so far! A lot of freak accidents starting from the prelims to the main card. It's worth buying if you havent seen it. I ended up with a poster from it.
