Lesnar beats Hunt, Nunes stuns Tate for title at UFC 200

Coming off big wins over Anthony Johnson and Alexander Gustafsson, Cormier now has a chance to prove himself against the greatest of all time Anderson Silva in a non-title bout.

• Light Heavyweight Bout: Daniel Cormier d.

Popular former UFC heavyweight champion and current WWE wrestler Brock Lesnar returned to the octagon after a four-year absence to defeat Mark Hunt after three tough rounds.

Daniel Cormier dominated a decision over Anderson Silva, who took the fight on two days’ notice after Jon Jones was dropped from the main event for failing a drug test.

“I wasn’t rocked”, Lesnar said in the post-fight press conference, per Hunter A. Homistek of MMA Fighting. “I’m glad I did”. In this fight, he has to understand he is going to get hit, and get hit hard.

She shocked the 19,000 in the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and is the first Brazilian woman to hold a UFC title.

Former UFC Lightweight champ Frankie Edgar attempted to avenge his loss against former Featherweight Champion Jose Aldo.

While Lesnar and Hunt went the distance, Miesha Tate’s reign as UFC women’s bantamweight champions lasted just one fight. I’ve been out of the game for 5 years, people.

However, when Tate came in for the weigh-in she was over the limit and disappeared while she attempted to work off the weight.

“She’s a very fast starter, very risky in the first round and she caught me fair and square”, Tate said.

According to Fox Sports, Lesnar was given permission by his employers at WWE to return for UFC 200, but after his stunning performance recently, it seems pretty possible that he would return to the UFC Octagon more often. She should be the main event.

Before the fight the talk was about Lesnar’s strong ground game versus Hunt’s punching power (and Lesnar’s reported inability to take a punch). After his win, Lesnar said: “Oh man, it took me a little while to get acclimated”.

In the heavyweight category, Brock Lesnar beat Mark Hunt also by unanimous decision.

“My future is already laid out for the next month”. He took a lot of good shots from me and I took some from him.

Lauzon and Diego Sanchez were supposed to engage in a war, but this war was one-sided.

Aldo cut Edgar in the first round and bloodied him for the rest of the bout.

“I have one goal left, and that’s to beat this guy”, Aldo said.

Also, second-ranked former heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez opened the pay-per-view portion of the card with a first-round TKO of seventh-ranked Travis Browne.

Tate fought Rousey in 2012 and 2013, losing by armbar both times. He showed vintage form against Browne (18-4-1), who got wobbled by a spinning wheel kick and then battered to the ground repeatedly.

T.J. Dillashaw defeated Raphael Assuncao by unanimous decision.
