UFC 202 delivered on all fronts.
Nine of the 12 fights ended with finishes, and the main event between Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz went five full rounds of back-and-forth fisticuffs. Every fan should be pleased after Saturday's slate of fights.
McGregor got the majority decision over Diaz, but it was not easy. Diaz perhaps came closest to finishing the fight with his third-round flurry before the bell. Regardless, McGregor evened up the series at one apiece.
Also victorious were Anthony Johnson and Donald Cerrone. Each put on a fantastic showing against top-level competition in Glover Teixeira and Rick Story, respectively.
UFC matchmakers Joe Silva and Sean Shelby now have the difficult task to match each of the 24 fighters with another opponent for later this year.
