Back when Fight Nights were Fight Nights

Saw at MMA Junkie UFC released a video of all Conor’s wins and I pulled up the Conor vs Max card to refresh my memory of what year that was.

One it feels crazy now not only was Conor vs Max not on the main card but they didn’t even headline the prelims. Obviously they were just starting out in their UFC careers but like I said, now it seems crazy given how far they went.

Anyway, This Fight Night featured Shogun, Chael, Faber, Overeem, Matt Brown, Johnson, Lauzon, Conor, Max, McDonald, Mike Brown, Gamburyan, OSP, Pickett…

I can’t imagine a Fight Night getting stacked like that these days.
