If you like the big boys, UFC Fight Night 87 was for you.
The main and co-main events of the card, which took place in Rotterdam, Netherlands, and aired Sunday afternoon in the United States, featured heavyweight fighters. In the headliner, converted centaur Alistair Overeem clashed with former UFC champion Andrei Arlovski in a bout that could determine the division's next title challenger.
One slot down the slate, Antonio Silva and Stefan Struve weren't knocking on the champion's door quite so loudly, but they still brought the promise of a classically artless, show-stopping heavyweight slobber-knocker.
Come for the heavyweights, stay for a 13-fight card with some interesting matchups and results. As usual, the final stat lines only reveal so much. These are the real winners and losers from UFC Fight Night 87.
For the literal-minded among us, full results appear on the final slide.
