After every UFC event, TapouTVTC.com takes a look at how each division shapes up. For more information on the Division Snapshot, take a look at our first snapshot.
Nate Marquardt: +15 (Was 25, now 10) (middleweight)
It is hard to evaluate this win, as we did not get to see a lot of Marquardt's gameplan. He jumped on a mental error by Palhares early, and that was the fight. Marquardt remains in the upper echelon of the middleweight division, but his next fight will tell us more.
Rousimar Palhares: -23 (Was 4, now 27) (middleweight)
Charles Oliveira: +7 (Was 18, now 11) (lightweight)
Oliveira looks like a future star, showing off a striking game that no one (especially Escudero) knew he had. Between his high level jiu jitsu, creative striking and buckets of charisma, Oliveira is certainly someone to watch in the next year.
Efrain Escudero: -13 (Was 16, now 29) (lightweight)
The former "Ultimate Fighter" winner is now 1-2 in his last three fights. Escudero got the striking match he thought he wanted, but Oliveira proved to be a handful on the feet as well. Did missing weight factor into his poor performance?
Jim Miller: +0 (Was 3, remains 3) (lightweight)
Miller remains one of the top lightweights in the division, and is very much in the title mix. Remember, his only two career losses are to lightweight champion Frankie Edgar and number-one contender Gray Maynard.
Gleison Tibau: -16 (Was 7, now 23) (lightweight)
Tibau claimed his boxing had vastly improved, but he looked much the same fighter against Miller that he has always been. When Tibau was able to score takedowns, he was afraid to engage on the ground, electing instead to stay in a stand-up battle that he was losing.
Cole Miller: +7 (Was 14, now 7) (lightweight)
Miller's reach was a big problem for Pearson, who was tagged repeatedly with counter punches as he tried to engage. The win has Miller talking of title aspirations, but he'll have to prove that he can win more than two fights in a row before that becomes a true possibility.
Ross Pearson: -23 (Was 5, now 28) (lightweight)
It was not a good night for "Ultimate Fighter" winners, as Pearson and Escudero both fell. When your opponent is that much taller, throwing looping hooks is not going to win you the fight. Pearson wasn't able to get inside on Miller, and it cost him.
