Remember how many "MMA/UFC FANS" are really just looking to see the big names again. There are some fighters there that i remember from LONG ago. Who were at one point or another top 10 but now they are going to fight the top 10 so whether or not the matchups suck (i don't really see where they do) people will be excited.

It shouldn't be boring.
It has a great main event, an interesting fight with Rothwell and AA, then a buch of fights that have big names but are really lopsided if you look closely. All those lopsided fights should be entreating dominations.
It probably won't live up to the ridicules hype it's been getting, but it should be entertaining.

Great talent doesnt always equal excitement.
Rizzo, Arlovsky, Sylvia all have had some less than exciting fights so who knows.

Every MMA card has the possibility of being a let down in terms of the fights. Not any different than a UFC card. The potential of this card is rediculous, this is why the card is gonna be good.
