Review: 2013-10-19, the final part of the fight between Gilbert Melendez and Diego Sanchez was simply astonishing: brutal exchanges, blood, nonstop pace and big heart, so it could be a perfect candidate for Mma Fight of the Year 2013 but unfortunately the first part was “only” a very good one and not epic. For this reason Melendez vs Sanchez (UFC Fight of the Night) gets four stars and not five, but we would like to see a rematch since it was also a very close bout. Gilbert Melendez (21-3-0, 57% finishing rate) entered as the No.3 lightweight in the world while Diego Sanchez (24-5-0, 63% finishing rate) entered as the No.10 (currently the #1 in this weight division is Anthony Pettis). Melendez vs Sanchez is on the undercard of Cain Velasquez vs Junior dos Santos 3 – UFC 166. Watch the video!

Assuncao vs Dillashaw is on the undercard of Demian Maia vs Jake Shields – UFC Ufn 29. Watch the video!
Review: 2013-09-21, close fight thanks to a great performance and some good single shots by both Jon Jones and Gustafsson but without ground game it is very difficult to give more than three stars. However the fight won UFC Fight of the Night honors and it is really possible to see a rematch since Jones and Gustafsson proved they are the two best light heavyweight fighters in the world! Jon ‘Bones’ Jones (18-1-0, 83% finishing rate) entered as the No.1 light heavyweight in the world while Alexander Gustafsson (15-1-0, 80% finishing rate) entered as the No.6. Jon Jones vs Gustafsson, main event of UFC 165, is valid for the UFC light heavyweight title (Jones’ sixth defense); they also faced each other a second time on December 29, 2018 (Jon Jones vs Alexander Gustafsson 2).
