Did the Stars Come out at UFC 169?
With 2014 just beginning, the UFC is without many of its top draws and UFC 169 didn’t actually help in that matter.

A record-setting night of decisions had the Jersey crowd more surly than usual, but there was still plenty of quality action across the UFC 169 PPV. Belts were defended, former champions were defeated, and there was plenty of fistic fury to go around.
We’ve got a hell of a card in Jersey this weekend, with two titles on the line and division-shaping bouts across the board at UFC 169. With Dominick Cruz on the injured list yet again, Barao is given his rightful title, but must defend it against short notice foe Urijah Faber. It’s a different fight than what he expected, but with a win over Faber in their first showdown, it’s up to Faber to find a new way to deal with the current champ. Jose Aldo will also be on the UFC 169 card to defend his strap after a series of opponent changes, taking on Ricardo Lamas in a potent battle.

It’s been well over three years but the UFC / WEC is finally back in Sacramento this weekend for the UFC on FOX 9. Despite the numerous changes to the main card the UFC on FOX 9 fight card was deep enough to withstand the injury bug and still look pretty stacked.
A card so powerful even the loss of a main event and co-main couldn’t make it suck, UFC on Fox 9 comes at us with a full ensemble of amazing bouts.
In a night headlined by a welterweight showdown, fellow welterweight Brandon Thatch made the biggest splash of the night. Making his Octagon debut and riding an eight fight winning streak, Brandon Thatch made short work of his opponent Justin Edwards on the preliminary portion of the UFC Fight Night 27 fight card.
After helping launch FOX Sports 1 last weekend the UFC returns this week with a Wednesday card from the Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana. While it has some big shoes to fill, UFC Fight Night 27 has the match ups to delivery another great card.
