The UFC 100 shown LIVE on Balls channel last Sunday morning was interesting to say the least.

Three big fights highlighted the hyped UFC 100 event.

Dan Henderson v. Michael Bisping

Dan Henderson knocked out Michael Bisping with a powerful right hand in the second round of the UFC middleweight bout.  Bisping jaw caught the strong right and knocked the Brit out cold.  He fell motionless on the floor.  Before Mario Yamasaki could stop the fight, Henderson made a continuous attack by giving Bisping another tremendous blow in the head.  The crowd roared in delight seeing the drop of Bisping.  Michael Bisping has never been out cold on the floor.  This was the first knockout he received in his career, which proves that Dan Henderson is a better fighter than him.

It’d be great to see a Dan Henderson –Anderson Silva match next.

George St. Pierre v. Thiago Alves

The crowd favorite GSP dominated his fight against Alves right from the clunk of the bell.  He took him down 8 times making his take down average in good precision.  He was constantly working on the ground and even at one point, got Alves’ back.  Alves mustered to get out of the predicament and up on his feet again several times, but he was badly bruised each time.

St. Pierre injured his groin in the third while he was on his back and Alves pushed his leg.  The incident did not provide any help to Alves, who GSP described as the toughest fight of his career.

It went to the judges’ scorecard but obviously GSP won the bout.  St. Pierre won by scores of 50-45, 50-45, 50-44.

Brock Lesnar v. Frank Mir

Brock Lesnar, a former pro wrestler who converted to UFC claiming he wants to showcase his bona fide athleticism.  He has displayed winning performances except in the hands of Frank Mir.  This second meet was to avenge that initial loss.

Lesnar took Mir down, levied his chest against Mir’s to completely immobilize Mir.  He held Mir’s wrist at a distance making it difficult for Mir to defend against the blows.  Lesnar kept pounding at him while Mir assures his corner that he was okay.  2^nd round starts with Frank Mir, battered face but still smiling, confident about his game.  Lesnar stuck with his game plan and took Mir down, positioned himself where his massive “extra 20 pound” weight is mashed against Mir’s body.  Mir unfortunately found himself cornered by the cage.  Lesnar capitalized by pounding Mir repeatedly on the head.  Herb Dean stopped the fight 1:48 of the second round. 

Lesnar ran around the octagon flipping off the Mandalay Bay Events Center crowd with both middle fingers.  He shouted at Mir as the challenger sat on a stool trying to regain his equilibrium.  Even during the slow motion replay, you can see the thunderous blows he received on the head.  Lesnar while being interviewed by Joe Rogan encouraged the booing fans by saying that he loves the animosity.

UFC 100 really presented some cage action with the additional forearm smash of Henderson and Lesnar’s pounding of Mir and the post fight WWE drama.
