Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC Entering the main event of UFC Vegas 8, fans expected violence from a pair of light heavyweights looking to get back into the win column in Anthony Smith and Aleksandar Rakic. Rakic proved himself the clear winner, but his unanimous decision over Smith was far more a tactical masterpiece than a brawl.
Below is how fighters reacted to the entire night of action in Las Vegas.
