UFC heavyweight no. 1 contender Cain Velasquez believes champion Brock Lesnar is the next level but won’t stop him from achieving his dream of wearing UFC gold. Interview by Danny Acosta. Shot and edited by Rick Lee.
UFC 119 & UFC 121 TRAILER! NEW!!!!!!!
Lesnar, 32, has not competed since he destroyed Frank Mir via a second-round technical knockout at UFC 100 one year ago. Honed by the Minnesota Martial Arts Academy, the former World Wrestling Entertainment superstar stared down a life- and career-threatening intestinal disorder in late 2009 and early 2010. Lesnar was a four-time collegiate All-American wrestler and won a national championship as a heavyweight at the University of Minnesota in 2000. Since entering mixed martial arts in 2007, the 6-foot-3, 265-pound behemoth has rapidly become the sport’s biggest box office draw and already owns wins against UFC hall of famer Randy Couture and Pride Fighting Championships veteran Heath Herring.
Based alongside former middleweight King of Pancrase Nate Marquardt at the Grudge Training Center in Colorado, Carwin has finished all 12 of his opponents inside one round. The heavy-handed 35-year-old has 22-, 29-, 31-, 44- and 49-second wins on his untarnished resume, which includes victories over former UFC heavyweight title contender Gabriel Gonzaga and the American Kickboxing Academy’s Christian Wellisch. Carwin, a Div. II national wrestling champion in college, captured the interim UFC heavyweight crown in March, when he knocked out Mir in a little less than four minutes at UFC 111. His ride-the-lightning punching power has turned him into one of the game’s most feared big men.

This time around Mauricio “Shogun” Rua made absolutely sure he would not get robbed by another fight going to the judges.
Rua defeated Lyoto Machida at 3:35 into the first round with a vicious knock out, making Shogun the new light heavyweight champion. The victory took place at UFC 113 “Machida vs. Shogun 2” on Saturday at the Bell Centre in Montreal.
For mma fans, it willgo down in history as the night Shogun took back what should have rightfully been his after UFC 104 where Machida took a controversial unanimous decision from Rua. Shogun, who dominated the Shotokan karate master with brutal leg kicks the first time they met, had to wait almost seven months for another shot at the title.
“Lyoto is a great fighter. He’s very good,” Rua said. “This time, instead of working and focusing so much on my kicks, I worked a lot on my hands so I could surprise him. I was happy with my new strategy.” -Shogun
