Falling Action: Best and Worst from UFC 123

Filed under: UFC

If nothing else, you have to respect "Rampage" Jackson's honesty at UFC 123. He thought he took something resembling a butt-whoopin' from Lyoto Machida, at least in the final round, and he had no problem saying so.

That's refreshing, I have to admit. The suggestion that the two should have an immediate rematch? That just makes my head hurt.

The fight was interesting, in a way, though not exactly thrilling. Seeing them do it again wouldn't help pay-per-view sales or the crowded light heavyweight division, which is probably why UFC president Dana White mercifully intervened with other ideas. It just goes to show that sometimes it's a good thing to have an opinionated guy at the top with veto power and the will to use it. Sometimes.

Now on to the winners, losers, and everything else in between after UFC 123.
