What'd you guys think? Patrick Cote, in particular. Title worthy win? We know how the UFC's handled supposed #1 contender title fights in the past. Was this win for Patrick Cote title worthy? I always figured Okami was going to be the first guy to get a crack at Silva when he dropped back down to middle weight but apperantly not? Cote shit out of luck?
And Ricardo Almeida? Man, I thought he was going to take this. What's next for the Big Dog? I wouldn't mind in the least seeing him fight Marquardt. Or Jeremy Horn, for that matter. Hell, even Rich Franklin, Dan Henderson, or anyone else. Hope this doesn't discourage him.
I had Almeida by a round. Honestly, I don't think they are going to give Cote an immediate Title shot. I think they just hyped the fight by saying that on the commercials. Have Cote fight Okami if he wants a shot cuz I think Okami is pretty much the only real deserving person right now. And past Okami, Hendo. Cote/Franklin Cote/Okami or Cote/Hendo those could be a #1 contender match now if they really want Patrick Cote as a contender.

I had it a draw and i hate doing that but neither really did anything to get a win over the other.
Now was i happy with the out come, yes very because i am a Cote fan.
Cote proved he will be eaten alive by Anderson.
Almeida imo proved if he can't take it down, he doesn't stand a good chance of winning.
and why does everyone keep saying title shot, i never heard that. All i heard was move up the ranks
On the commercial for the Event, the announcer said "Battle for a Title shot" or something to that effect...
EDIT !~$@ *20 seconds into the video

hmmm. Queer... thats just queer. They need to hire new writers. Okami better get his damn shot at the title because it would be stupid to let somebody like jason fucking macdonald be right.
well either way, the video I posted is the reason why people keep saying title shot

I thought it was a bullshit decision (according to UFC judging).. I socred it 28 to 27 Almedia... I had him winning the first and third rounds.
I did as well. I lost a sig bet over bad judging, the first one I've ever lost.

I think either of them would get eaten alive by Anderson, Henderson and/or Franklin.
I think the only title I'd say that fight decided was biggest disappointment. I know there is a lot riding on every win, but expected more from both fighters; two guys I was sure would be exciting fought very cautiously.
I'm probably just biased.
