UFC Fight Night 101 is not going to earn many votes for Card of the Year.
Nothing against anyone personally on the card, including two very good fighters in Robert Whittaker and Derek Brunson facing off in the main event, but grouped together in this combination, there wasn’t a great deal to recommend this event as it went down Saturday (U.S. time) from Melbourne, Australia. That is just the truth of it.
But even though the main-eventers found themselves only barely within the official top 10—and it gets far more anonymous from there—this is still the big league and there was business at hand. Could anyone distinguish themselves from the anonymous pack?
As always, the final stat lines only reveal so much. These are the real winners and losers from UFC Fight Night 101.
Full card results appear on the final slide.
