Alvin is on a distinguished road

I went with the Fisher fight as well, but then I didn't see the Horn Vs Sonnen, Guillard Vs. Davis or the Gonzaga Vs. Scherner fights, so I can't comment on them.

I have to agree with Nickname on the Hughes/Gracie fight though. In fairness it was probably the right decision, but I see a lot of fights in the UFC where the refs are looking for an excuse to stop the fight.

Yes Hughes was on Gracies back & wailing his arms around but I wasn't convinced he was hurting him. It seems that as soon as fighters have back control all they need to do is throw fists. Land or not in recent UFC's Herb & Big John will jump in, where in the past they used to tell the fighters to protected themselves for a while before jumping in.
