I'd argue that the last 2 fights may not have been exciting because they were too technical. Jacare seemed perfectly happy just getting Carmont's back and keeping him there. Carmont's sub defense was really good, but it seemed like Jacare wasn't really trying too hard for the finish.
Machida vs Moussasi was like a stand up chess match. They spent most of the fight being cautious and trying not to make any mistakes. Machida was being more aggressive and IMO landed the more significant strikes. He was definitely trying to finish the fight when he threw those head kicks.
