Review: 2012-12-29, great fight with a spectacular first round, some vicious elbows and a lot of blood: Jim Miller vs Joe Lauzon gets three stars and wins UFC Fight of the Night honors but for us the main event between Dos Santos and Velasquez was more exciting. Jim Miller (21-4-0) entered as the No.17 lightweight in the world while Joe Lauzon (22-7-0) entered as the No.18. Miller vs Lauzon is on the undercard of Junior dos Santos vs Cain Velasquez 2 – UFC 155; they also faced each other a second time on August 27, 2016 (=Joe Lauzon vs Jim Miller 2). Watch the video!

This fight should be at worst a 4 star fight, it was so much better than the 25 minute beatdown in the main event. This one was a true showing of heart, Dos Santos just showed that he can get beat up for a long time. Lauzon at least fought back.
