Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2016-02-27, entertaining fight thanks to a good performance by both fighters:
Anderson Silva vs Michael Bisping gets three stars (UFC Fight of the Night).
The black belt in Bjj, judo, tae-kwon-do and former Ufc Mw champion Anderson Silva entered this fight with a professional mma record of 33-6-0 (79% finishing rate) and he is ranked as the No.15 middleweight in the world. ‘The Spider’ is 40 years old (four years older than Bisping) and he suffered two consecutive losses in 2013 against Chris Weidman (=Silva vs Weidman I and Weidman vs Silva II – in this second fight Silva broke his left fibula and tibia); after this bout he came back to win in 2015, against Nick Diaz (=Silva vs Diaz) but then the result was overturned in a no-contest beacuase both fighters tested positive.
His opponent, the Tuf 3 light-Hw winner Michael Bisping, has an official record of 27-7-0 (70% finishing rate) and he entered as the No.9 in the same weight class. He lost to #1 Ufc Mw champion Luke Rockhold in 2014 (=Rockhold vs Bisping) but then he has won over CB Dollaway (=Bisping vs Dollaway) and Thales Leites (=Bisping vs Leites). ‘The Spider’ Silva vs Bisping is the main event of the UFC Fight Night 84.

Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2016-02-27, disappointing fight between
Gegard Mousasi and Thales Leites: it gets two stars.
The black belt in judo and former Strikeforce light-Hw champion Gegard Mousasi entered this fight with a pro mma record of 37-6-2 (84% finishing rate) and he is ranked as the No.7 middleweight in the world (currently the #1 in this division is Luke Rockhold). He fought three times last year beating Dan Henderson (=Henderson vs Mousasi) and Costas Philippou (=Mousasi vs Philippou), but then he lost to Uriah Hall (=Mousasi vs Hall).
His opponent, the black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu Thales Leites, has a record of 25-5-0 (72% finishing rate) and he entered as the No.11 in the same weight class. He fought twice in 2015 winning over Tim Boetsch (=Boetsch vs Leites) but then he was defeated by Michael Bisping (via split decision, Bisping vs Leites). Mousasi vs Leites is on the undercard of Anderson Silva vs Michael Bisping – UFC Fight Night 84. Watch the video and rate this fight!
Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2016-02-27, fight not so exciting between
Tom Breese and Keita Nakamura: it gets two stars.
The undefeated Tom Breese entered this fight with a perfect mma record of 9-0-0 (100% finishing rate) and he is ranked as the No.49 welterweight in the world. He fought twice last year beating Luiz Dutra Jr and Cathal Pendred.
His opponent, Keita Nakamura, has an official record of 31-6-2 (71% finishing rate) and he entered as the No.65 in the same weight class. He suffered his last loss when he faced Frank Camacho in 2014, but after this bout he has won five consecutive fights.

Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2016-02-27, fight not particularly good between
Francisco Rivera and Brad Pickett: it gets two stars.
Francisco Rivera entered this fight with a professional record of 11-5-0 (73% ko/tko victory rate – he has never won via submission) and he is ranked as the No.30 bantamweight in the world but he won just one out of his last four bouts, against Alex Caceres (=Rivera vs Caceres). After this bout he lost to John Lineker but it was one of the candidates for the mma Fight of the Year 2015 (=Lineker vs Rivera).
His opponent, Brad Pickett, has a mma record of 24-11-0 (71% finishing rate) and he entered as the No.65 in the same weight class. He won just one out of his last five bouts, against Neil Seery in 2014 (=Pickett vs Seery). Rivera vs Pickett is on the undercard of Anderson Silva vs Michael Bisping – UFC Fight Night 84.
