_____________________________________________

Give or take a prelim fight or two, UFC Fight Night 103 in Phoenix, AZ is complete. Please keep in mind that the bout order for this event is TBD and the one posted above is purely for the sake of the thread. With that being said, what do you guys think of this card? It's not bad I guess. I'm not as opposed to Yair/BJ as some people were when this fight got announced as I don't think Yair is ready for a step up in competition. I feel the Yair/BJ and KZ/Bermudez matchups are interchangeable. The rest of the card is solid, but not great. If I had to rate it, I'd give it a 6/10. What do you guys think?

 

[Schoolboy Q]

7/10, don't really care for the main event but there's some really good match ups on the main card.

 

[Dragov]

6 if BJ is motived. Otherwise its 4

 

[KONE]

Solid 6, Jussier Formiga brings it down a bit. He's only entertaining when he gets destroyed

 

[Guile]

Every main fight card is good on paper. Hard to rate but it will be an enjoyable night of fights.

 

[beephin]

Caraway is must watch.

6.2/8.5 rating

Solid 6, Jussier Formiga brings it down a bit. He's only entertaining when he gets destroyed

Strange matchup considering the difference in ranking. I hope Jussier doesn't just grapple fuck Pettis for 3 rounds.

 

[kingkshon73]

Solid 7.

 

[DanaWhitesButler]

Will get to see Penn KO'ed by headkick, so 9/10 quality

 

[Arkridge]

Will get to see Penn KO'ed by headkick, so 9/10 quality

The depression on Sherdog would be unreal if Penn got headkick KO'ed.

[JonnyboyATL]

Horrid, honestly. 2.5/10

 

[FranOlivetto]

7/10, don't really care for the main event but there's some really good match ups on the main card.

 

[copyandpasteguy]

10 because all the main card fights are either inriguing or solid af and @Ben Saunders is on the card headlining the prelims

 

[Makani]

7/10.

Someday all my heroes will be dead.

 

[Soul On Ice]

/10

 

[MRDOG]

A solid 9. It's a Fight Night Card after all and we get to see the return of B.J. Penn on it. Soon all these older legends will be all but gone from competition. Have to bump up the score a little based on that alone.

 

[Thesnake101]

Solid 6, Jussier Formiga brings it down a bit. He's only entertaining when he gets destroyed

Boo, he's more entertaining to me than lil' boretime.

The card is like a 5/10 for me, not bad, but not good. Pesta/Grabowski is one of the most uninteresting matchups this year. Rooting for BJ to give Yair some boxing lessons. Not a fan of spamming spinning shit over and over while only hitting air.

 

[fortheo]

I like the main card, but everything else is kind of meh for me.

 

[Jackonfire]

I'll say a solid 6. Its always great to watch Saunders fight.
