UFC ON FX 8 RESULTS: Vitor Belfort and Jacare Souza Cap Off Dozen Wins by Brazilian Fighters in Brazil - 5/18/13


The Ultimate Fighting Championship presented UFC on FX 8: Belfort vs Rockhold on Saturday, May 18, 2013, at the Arena Jaragua in Jaraguá do Sul, Brazil.

In the main event, UFC legend Vitor "The Phenom" Belfort continued his late-career resurgence with a 'Knockout of the Year' contender spinning heel kick delivered directly to the jaw of former Strikeforce middleweight champion Luke Rockhold. BJJ demigod Ronaldo "Jacare" Souza, another former Strikeforce 185-pound champion, choked Chris Camozzi unconscious in the co-main event.

American Nik Lentz was the only non-Brazilian fighter to win at UFC on FX 8. Seven other Americans, a Canadian and a Russian all lost their bouts to Brazilian fighters.

UFC 150 RESULTS: Benson Henderson Retains Title with Split Decision; Frankie Edgar Furious, Nate Diaz Next - 8/11/12



The Ultimate Fighting Championship presented UFC 150: Henderson vs Edgar 2 on Saturday, August 11, 2012, at the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colorado.

In the main event, UFC Lightweight Champion Ben "Smooth" Henderson scored a sure-to-be-debated split decision victory in a rematch with former 155-pound champ Frankie "The Answer" Edgar. The non-partisan Denver crowd vociferously objected to the decision, unsettling the usually cool-as-a-cucumber Henderson during his post-fight interview. The crowd then cheered Edgar as he spoke after Henderson. Robbery or not, with back-to-back losses to Henderson, Edgar is not going to be getting another immediate rematch. Instead, Henderson will move on to fight new lightweight number one contender Nate Diaz.
