I know its a week late but deal with it.
UFC 116, predicted to be one of the biggest and most bad ass events in recent memory came to a conclusion after a roller coaster ride from hell for Lesnar fans. Jumping right into the main event, we saw the seemingly unstoppable Lesnar taking on the undefeated 5 XL glove Carwin. After a one sided first round which saw the underdog Carwin (those two words very rarely side by side) beating the living hell out of Lesnar for 5 straight minutes, Lesnar came back with an arm-triangle choke mid way through round 2 to take the victory. What more can I say? The fight started the way I predicted but who the hell thought Lesnar could throw out an arm-triangle choke. Me not being a fan of Lesnar had to give the man props for taking the beating he did through round 1 to come out and look so good in round 2.
As if the main event wasnt enough, MMA fans were treated with a fight for the ages with Chris Leben and Akiyama. This fight left me simply speechless with 2 men beating the living hell out of each other for almost 15 minutes. Ive said it once and ill say it again, that Leben can put on one hell of a fight and this was no exception. Once the dust and blood settled, we saw the Crippler pull a fantastic triangle choke on the worn out Akiyama, did anyone see this coming?
All I can say is that with the last few UFC’s mediocre at best, we were all in for a treat in this one. Event results and payouts are presented to you below. Bring on UFC 117!

Shane Carwin is making peanuts compared to Lesnar.
Seriously he got 10 times what Carwin won? Carwin made the fight!
