It was like a movie with a very slow pace and an amazing third act (Unforgiven?).
The event itself wasn't the best, but that feeling it left us with was pure mma-euphoria.
Miesha Tate winning the world title in such epic fashion was an exhilarating experience- especially for longtime fans that followed Tate's career- but also for newer fans that may have only been interested in Conor.
Then, Conor/Nate was a legit FOTN anyway, but watching Nate Diaz finally get his Diaz moment in such dramatic fashion was itself worth the PPV price. I remember listening to celebrity casual fans talk about that fight the next week; everybody was blown away by Nate's toughness. Watching him celebrate with his blood pouring down his face and then delivering that line in the interview catapulted him to stardom instantly.
Those are the kind of moments that make mma so unique. The event demonstrated the chaos of mma by having two upset-comeback submissions over strikers that were kicking ass. And, both were for the world title.
