UFC 141 Results

Diego Nunes defeats Manny Gamburyan by Unanimous Decision. Nunes got on the hot foot and did the distance thing while Manny charged forward like a mini-Matt Serra. Rinse and repeat.

Jacob Volkmann defeats Efrain Escudero by Unanimous Decision. Its "X-Mas" wrestling all day save for a close guillotine choke by Efrain late in the fight. Jacob then tried to be funny in the post fight interview and bombed awfully and would later blame Joe Rogan for the flop saying he wanted to "punch him in the nuts." This boring douche bag is embarrassing.

Dong Hyun Kim clobbered Sean Pierson by Unanimous Decision. The "Donger" hit the front kick three or more times just keeping Sean on his heels and absorbing punishment. I still don't understand why "Stun Gun" can't fix his endurance issues but he is still showing improvment though he lacks any killer instinct. A long rambling post fight speech in Japanese follows as we cringe at the awkwardness together.

Danny Castillo defeats Anthony Njokuani by Split-Decision.

Ross Pearson defeats Junior Assuncao by Unanimous Decision in his Featherweight debut.

Jim Hettes anhiliated Nam Phan by Unanimous Decision.

Alexander Gustafsson TKO's Vladimir Matyushenko with punches 2:13 into round 1. The "Janitor" straight ran into a "Mauler" jab and then the young Gustafsson put Vlad away looking good but needing a real test in the sparce Light Heavyweight Top 10.

Johny Hendricks KO's Jon Fitch a mere 0:12 into the contest! Meet the left hand of Johny Hendricks Mr. Fitch! Johny threw a full force bomb that dropped Fitch and a single follow up fist ends Jon's night early. Just a brutal KO and a good stoppage saving the unconcious Fitch. "KO Of The Night"

Nate Diaz gives the fight of his life and soundly defeats Donald Cerrone by Unanimous Decision. The "Cowboy" flipped off 209 Jr. during the staredown and the boys quickly went ot work. Diaz striking looked pinpoint and Donald looked hurt early and often in the opening round. Nate grew with confidence and continued to rock Cerrone who had no answers and took a 10-8 opening round beating. In the 2nd, Cerrone found Nate's leg as he continually dropped Diaz with sweeping leg kicks. Nate had trouble avoiding the kicks but pressed forward still landing rapid fire striking. Before the final round Diaz returned the middle finger high in the air as a gassed looking "Cowboy" simply nodded as the last round began. Diaz looked to be making a point out striking Cerrone with a bevvy of striking. The bell rings and the men bug finding respect for each other after the brutal war. Amazing fight! "Fight Of The Night"

Alistair Overeem TKO's a fraudulent looking Brock Lesnar with a TKO kick to the body and punches only 2:26 into round 1. Brock came in pumping his fist to Kid Rock and then looked like a WWE Pro Wrestler taking one half hearted takedown attempt and then taking brutal knees to his gut. More knees follow and a liver kick sends Lesnar crashing to the canvas. He covers up but Overeem gets some punches through as Brock simply gives up and the fight ends. Lesnar announces his retirement and how can you not think this guy just hoodwinked us all into thinking he is a legit fighter. That was sad but a confidence boosting moment for "Ubereem" who is now a star in America and moves on to a mega fight with Cain, I mean Heavyweight Champion Junior Dos Santos.
