Hindsight - UFC Japan: Barnett vs. Nelson in retrospect

The trail ends in this town. There's no place to go but back.*In every fight card that's especially true for someone. Most fans and analysts figured it would be Uriah Hall heading back down the way he came up, after a fight with Gegard Mousasi.
