While everyone is quick to declare 2017 as a disappointing year for the UFC – and it has been at the box office – there have been some quality cards put together by the preeminent MMA organization. UFC 212 was no exception. The main event saw what could become a landmark changing of the guard as Max Holloway definitively overthrew Jose Aldo to become the undisputed featherweight champion. While it may not have been a FOTY candidate, it was a quality contest nonetheless. The rest of the card followed a similar theme as spectacular wouldn’t describe any of the fights on the card, but it’s hard to label a single one as a true stinker either.
