Don't roll your eyes at the little guys. They always put on a great show.
"Mighty Mouse" is one of the fastest fighters you'll ever see.
Benavidez has legitmiate KO power.
This is already shaping up to be a great fight as they appear to split the first two rounds.

Bendavidez clips "Mighty Mouse" and has a guillotine choke in deep. This one could be over. Mighty Mouse is struggling.
Edit: Mighty Mouse escapes, but the biggest moment of the fight thus far is in favor of Joseph. Big escape by Mighty Mouse.

Wow, I'd hate to be a judge. I have it 2-2, so in all likelihood the 5th round will decide who takes home the first ever Flyweight belt.
Edit: I have Mighty Mouse winning the fight, but this was a good, hard fought, exciting title fight. The little guys represented themselves well.
We'll see what the decision is.....
48-47 Johnson
48-47 Benavidez
49-46 Johnson
Winner by split decision, of the first ever 125lb belt, Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson!

I think a lot of people are going to start streaming Jon Jones fights after the UFC 151 debacle.

OHHHHH VITOR BELFORT ALMOST FINISHES THE FIGHT WITH AN ARMBAR!
That looked nasty. We were so, so, so close to a monster upset.
Edit: Jones comes back to win the round, but that was far and away the closest Jones has ever come to being defeated. He might have popped his arm. Jones had to slam him twice to get out of it. Vitor is a bloddy mess.J
Double Edit: Jones starting to pick Viotr apart on the feet and on the ground. Vitor appears to be going for the home run sub.
Triple Edit: Jon Jones the winner by submission (Kimura) in the 4th round.

You are a true example of a UFC fan. Why are these posts allowed on a football blog?
