Always been a HUGE Mo Smith fan, was one of the first guys I became a big fan of when I very first became immersed in UFC via VHS tapes from my local video store in the aftermath of UFC 40(my first UFC).
Was a tad concerned that Mo was fighting at age 50, but he looked to be in tremendous shape & still has some excellent kickboxing abilities, showed good timing and quickness for somebody his age and maybe I just had low expectations, but he impressed me.
Yvel/Alexander was about what I expected, Houston didn't look terrible by any stretch, but the chin has just gone and Yvel definately is a hurricane with those fists. He's a solid LHW challenger on the non-Zuffa scene.
Good for Mo, I'm genuinely happy for him and like that feeling. Not too hot on the play by play, felt like Mauro, McCully & Jens had alot of audio feedback problems I noticed. Nothing as bad as ROH's nightmare iPPV they held tonight....good gawd was it fucked.
