If that is indeed the case the Jackson’s baseline draw, without a perceived legitimate opponent or any help from the undercard or co-main event, is 350,000.

Those numbers look pretty good when you consider the fact that Anderson Silva drew only 275,000 buys at UFC 90. The undercard for that card was significantly stronger, though Silva’s opponent was a greater unknown then Keith Jardine.

The big man folded like cardboard 1:09 into the right thanks to a right hand from Shane Carwin (12-0).

Gonzaga (10-5) controlled the fight early with some punches and a takedown. But Carwin got back to his feet, stepped aside from a right punch from Gonzaga, then blasted Gonzaga in the face for the knockout win.

“Gabe caught me a couple times,” Carwin said. “My head’s a little extra thick.”
