Sunday night, the UFC took Milwaukee by storm, playing host to an event that will go down as one of the most electrifying cards ever witnessed. There were underlining stories such as Chris Lytle’s retirement and Jim Miller’s potential title shot. When the Octagon rolled out of town the Lightweight division had two new names [...]
When I think of the most entertaining cards top to bottom so far this year UFC Live 4: Kongo vs. Barry and now UFC Live 5: Hardy vs. Lytle come to mind. These Versus (NBC Sports Network)/ Facebook cards are on a hot streak reminiscent of those good old WEC cards we became accustomed to on those Thursday nights. Last night we saw some old WEC mainstays like Ben Henderson, Joseph Benavidez and Donald Cerrone all collect victories in entertaining fashion.
UFC on Versus 5 delivered in so many ways from the Bradley Center in Milwaukee, WI. A true sportsman walked away with the win, WEC veterans proved that they do belong in the big leagues and overall – smaller weight classes always come through when it’s go time. In everything though, there are winners and losers, here is the breakdown from last night’s event and the ramifications thereof.
What a night of fights tonight at UFC on Versus 5: Hardy vs. Lytle! Live inside the Bradley Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin the 24 men that competed tonight put on a great show for the MMA fans. From top to bottom the card had a little bit of everything, from solid debuts to veterans going out on top.
The Ultimate Fighting Champion comes to the Bradley Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin for a rare Sunday MMA card this weekend. The free event will open up with the eight fight preliminary card on Facebook and finish with the four bout main card on the Versus Network starting a 6pm PT / 9pm ET.

It’s not often you get a free card with this many excellent match-ups, but the UFC has really outdone itself here. The only things you can hope for in a card this stacked is that a lot of these bouts end early, and that we all make some money on the side. So, check out my comparison betting odds for the night, as well as any prop bets that catch my eye, and increase that bankroll!
It’s the dog days of summer, so that must mean it’s time to hand out some hardware in the form of the Mid-Year MMA Awards. These coveted little awards were voted on by me and the results kept secret by me until I alone was ready to present them to the men and women deserving [...]
