With their respective wins, Dan Henderson would seem to be a front-runner to challenge the winner of the Jones and Machida title fight and Uriah Faber would be the number 1 contender for Dominick Cruz's bantamweight title. Also, after sub-par performances, can we say "The Axe Murderer" is back.

It was a great day of fights. Hope everyone enjoyed as much as I did.
