UFC 162 was not only the most electrifying card of 2013, but perhaps one of the best in the organization’s history. And that isn’t solely due to Chris Weidman’s knockout of Anderson Silva
The last few pay-per-view events have been fairly lackluster. UFC 161, in particular, stands out as a real stinker with nine of the 11 bouts going to the judges’ scorecards.
However, that was not the case with UFC 162—MMA Mania reports that the event is currently on pace for 800,000 buys.
The event was chock-full of amazing fights from top to bottom. Even the fights that went the distance were exciting. If Tim Kennedy’s out-grappling of Roger Gracie is the most “boring” part of the card, then that’s one heck of a night.
Truthfully, the whole card was awesome, but these were the most impressive performances from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
