UFC Vegas 24 Post-topsy: Decisions, decisions and a ‘Reaper’ rising

UFC Vegas 24 was not an event to remember. That isn’t to say it was mired by controversy or lacked a few noteworthy performances, but it was a card that completely filled the content time slot for ESPN. Of the 10 fights on the card, 80% ended with Ultimate Fighting Championship public announcer Bruce Bufferreading the judge’s decisions. This included three split decisions and a technical decision from a knee to the groin. Meaning many of the bouts lacked definitive winners, and most were not fights pulling nominations for the fight of the night. However, bonuses were handed out and major statements were made by a few. Let’s take a look at the notables from the night.
