|  Who impressed you the most at UFC 115?
Wow, I think that was a stellar night of fights! From beginning to end (Pyle sub'ing Lennox) and of course, my homefry Rich Franklin KOing (and hopefully retiring) Chuck Liddell...
Overall, one person stood out to me and that was Evan Dunham. I thought, no way can he take out the tough-as-nails Tyson Griffin. I had a great feeling the Hitman was also going to give Paulo Thiago a run for his money but not in that fashion so he's my second pick! Carlos Condit is another guy I wanted to see win and great job, so he's my 3rd!

the cro cop of the last 2 years wouldn't have come back from the first round beating he took, but maybe just maybe he actually wants it now.

It was Condit for me. That was the first time I have ever seen Greg Jackson try to get one of his fighters fired up, and damn did it work. That was the first time in a long time that I saw Condit go out there with intentions to HURT his opponent

edit: wow who the hell is voting for Rich?!?! lol

I voted for Cro Cop... Rich was ok well he had broken hand and pull out KO... But I never see Cro Cop comeback from first round loss...

I wasn't impressed with Condit - he was fighting a UFC newcomer (albeit a really talented one) and got dominated in the first 2 rounds. Was pretty impressed by Rory.
I was oddly impressed by Yvel's strange ground game - totally unable to stop himself from getting mounted, but then also using some crazy sweeps... It's like he learned jiu-jitsu in reverse and can do some complicated stuff but not the basics. His g'n'p from the top position was also excellent - pity his wrestling isn't good enough for us to see it more often.
Rich Franklin I think was probably losing the round until he caught chuck - who looked good until that point where he got ktfo.
