In hindsight, 'UFC 178: MM vs. Cariaso' was one of the most stacked UFC cards ever...

Conor McGregor vs. Dustin Poirier

Dominick Cruz vs. Takeya Mizugaki

Demetrious Johnson vs. Chris Cariaso (Original main event was Jones vs. Gustafsson 2)

Amanda Nunes vs. Cat Zingano

Donald Cerrone vs. Eddie Alvarez (Originally Cerrone vs. Khabib)

Stephen Thompson vs. Patrick Cote

Yoel Romero vs. Tim Kennedy


So there was 4 current UFC champions fighting on that card, and 2 legit #1 contenders (Thompson and Romero), also top5 fighters like Zingano, Alvarez, Cerrone.

Thats absolutely crazy.

Thoughts?
 
The fights were exciting too.Im proud to own the event t-shirt for that event
 
Good call. I enjoyed that one.

My how things change quickly.

%100.

Dominick Cruz came out guns blazing and knocked someone out for the first time in like what, 10 years?

McGregor Poirier great 1st round knockout.

Romero vs. Kennedy, still being discussed today lol, produced much drama and salt.


Fantastic event.
 
It was a great card and I'm sure the 54 people that watched it love it.




















i kid i kid
 
IIRC it sold under 100k PPVs, though. Sucks for all the great fighters on that card...

I recall watching it with my crew and McGregor vs Dustin ending. And than getting Cerrone and Alvarez like it was a little encore. And following it up with Mighty Mouse just for a little extra fun.

Truly was an amazing event. So many great performances.
 
Nunes/Cat is one of my favorite womens mma fights ever
 
was a good event saw Cruz come back and get a K.O give it a 6/10
 
One of the best cards, and definitely one of the best events. Highlight of the show: Dominic Cruz crushing Mizugaki. If only Cormier/Bones never fell through....
 
Alot of people said it was weak after Jones vs Gus 2 and Cowboy vs Khabib fell through.

Man it was stacked.

Ufc on fox 12 i think it was was stacked and full of exciting fights as well.
