It took just two minutes and 20 seconds for Cain Velasquez
to prove to the world that he is worthy of being considered one of the top
contenders to the UFC heavyweight title currently held by Brock Lesnar.
Wanderlei Silva needed the full 15 minutes of his fight with
Michael Bisping, but he also showed why he is still relevant among today’s
elite fighters. He was victorious in his 185-pound debut, serving notice on the
division.
