Average US viewers: 2.25Million

Pre-fight hype: C

Star Power: C+

Fight Quality: A

FINAL GRADE: C+

Some questioned the UFCs decision to book relatively unknown fighters Jim Miller vs. Nate Diaz in the main event of a show that would air on network television and as it turns out, they may have been right…at least by some standards.
