UFC 121 Cain Velasquez Destroys and upsets Brock Lesnar By TKO – First Mexican American MMA Champ
rock Lesnar By TKO – First Mexican American MMA Champ
Nearly 20,000 Ultimate Fighting Championship fans showed up Saturday night to the Honda Center hoping to celebrate a historic victory. Cain Velasquez did not disappoint.
Touted as a can’t-miss prospect almost from the first day he entered the sport of mixed martial arts, Velasquez fulfilled those high expectations at UFC 121. In front of a sold-out crowd, many of whom were proudly waving Mexican flags, Velasquez became the first Mexican-American to win a heavyweight title in either boxing or MMA, pounding defending champion Brock Lesnar into the mat before referee Herb Dean stopped the contest at 4:12 of the opening round.
A crowd that reached deafening noise levels when Velasquez (9-0) entered the arena somehow turned the volume up even more when the match was haulted and Velasquez had his hand raised.
“I expected him to come out and try to take me down. We prepared for every scenario,” said Velasquez, showing more emotion as the belt was put around his waist than he almost ever has in UFC’s octagon.
Lesnar (5-2) was humble in defeat.
“I expected nothing less. He’s a great fighter,” said Lesnar.
“What can I say? He was better than me tonight.”
The two opened with a titanic exchange of fists and knees as Lesnar came out charging, looking to take down Velasquez. The challenger — an All-American wrestler in college — did what no opponent yet was able to do: prevent the former NCAA wrestling champion from dominating on the mat.
Velasquez (who came into the fight at 240 pounds) fought off the 264-pound Lesnar and turned the fight in his favour for good once he started to land with some shots to Lesnar’s chin. The champion was soon cut under his left eye, although the worst was yet to come.
Velasquez knocked Lesnar so loopy with one attack, it actually spun him 360 degrees. Velasquez pounced on a fallen Lesnar, who survived the first onslaught on the mat but couldn’t keep Velasquez at bay much longer. He refused to let Lesnar regain his composure, pounding him until the finish.

This sport has grown immensely over the years, with many international competitions being held. As with most sports, there is certain equipment needed, such as MMA sparring gloves in order to protect yourself during practice sessions.

The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is a mixed martial arts (MMA) promotion company based in the United States that hosts numerous events worldwide. It is the most successful MMA promotion in the world with many of the sport’s top fighters under contract.[2] The UFC has five weight-divisions and enforces the Unified Rules of Mixed Martial Arts.[3] Dana White serves as the president of the UFC; Frank and Lorenzo Fertitta control its parent company, Zuffa, LLC.[4][5][6]
Inspired by vale tudo tournaments in Brazil,[7] the UFC and the sport of MMA have roots in the ancient Olympic combat sport of Pankration in 648 B.C.[8] The UFC held its first competition in Denver, Colorado in 1993. Showcasing fighters of different disciplines—including boxing, Brazilian jiu jitsu, wrestling, Muay Thai and other styles—the UFC sought to identify the most effective martial art in a real fight. After a period of political backlash, the UFC gradually underwent reform by embracing stricter rules and achieving sanctioning with State Athletic Commissions.
With a cable-television deal and expansion into Canada, Europe, Australia[9] the Middle East[10] and new markets within the United States, the UFC as of 2010 has gained in popularity, along with greater mainstream-media coverage. As of 2010 viewers can access UFC programming on pay-per-view television, in the U.S. on Spike and Versus, in the United Kingdom and Ireland on ESPN, as well as in over 130 countries and 20 different languages worldwide.[11] I Dont Not Own Any Content of This Video. ~#

UFC 2010 Undisputed is an upcoming mixed martial arts video game featuring Ultimate Fighting Championship properties and fighters. It is scheduled for release on May 25, 2010. A first look of the game was shown on December 12, 2009 at the Spike Video Game Awards, while showing the first look at Ultimate Fighter participant, Kimbo Slice. Along with Slice are numerous newly added fighters to comply with the previous list from the 2009 version of the game. 2010 will also have a more “professional” type feel featuring inverted submissions, using the cage walls of the octagon to pressure your opponent, southpaw stances and a polished ground game with more capabilities for more advanced grappling.Hot Models Demonstrate the triangle choke from the mount position
