That's what Jack Slack thinks. Pretty interesting read as usual :
Through writing on the strategy of fights and my critical attitude toward hype and gift matchups, I have developed something of a reputation for at least being an honest writer.
I do not like to pretend that all main events are main-event worthy or that all dominating performances show improvement in the winner—you only need to look at how little I wrote about Cain Velasquez vs. Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva to see that I don't have time to hype gift fights or waffle about matches which don't interest me.
What I can say with all honesty is that Mark Hunt vs. Junior dos Santos was, in my mind, the best fight in UFC heavyweight history—only matched in technical nuance and excitement at heavyweight by Fedor Emelianenko and Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira's trilolgy of fights in PRIDE FC.
