Location: MGM Grand Garden Arena, Las Vegas, Nevada This fight card presents a fairly decent night of fights leading up to a rematch long-in-the-making between Chuck Liddell and Quinton Jackson. It is a fight card populated mostly by good fighters who (in my opinion) have very little impact on their respective divisions.

"I know we are gonna leave bloody":
This is one of the best UFC events I have seen in a very long time. Granted, there are some really short fights, and some people may find that to be disappointing, but even those fights have really good finishes.

A shocking end, thanks to a devastating Rampage right hook, to Liddell's reign as king of the UFC's light heavyweight division, and the beginning of the Rampage Era. As good as the Rampage-Liddell main event was,... more info
