UFC 159 Superlatives: Best and Worst from the Entire Fight Card

The problems began on the preliminary card, where Ovince St. Preux poked Gian Villante in the eye. Without giving Villante a moment to recover, Kevin Mulhall oddly called an immediate halt to the fight, and St. Preux walked away with a technical-decision victory.

In the final fight of the FX-televised prelims, Yancy Medeiros injured a finger and was rendered unable to continue fighting. As a result, Rustam Khabilov was awarded a technical-knockout win.

The co-main event nearly made it the distance without any issues, but Alan Belcher caught a finger in the eye with 29 seconds remaining in the bout, and that led to another technical decision, which went in Michael Bisping's favor.

While the main event was completed without any injury interruptions, Jon Jones did suffer a nasty toe injury during the fight and could now be put on the shelf for a significant amount of time to recover.
