That was an awesome main event. Definitely fight of the year thus far. I would love to see an immediate rematch. The undercard drug a fair bit, but the PPV, for the most part, was a lot of fun.

Hearing it was a great fight, I was busy watching Hockey night in Canada.

Main Event saved an otherwise lackluster undercard IMO .......

Bought the replay, just finished watching the Main Event. Amazing fight, easily fight of the year. I thought the PPV was pretty solid. Renan Barao is a beast!
