Jon Jones dethroned Shogun Rua

An outstanding performance from the 23 year old Jon Jones (13-1) as he whipped the Light Heavyweight championship title from the veteran Mauricio Shogun Rua (19-5) last Saturday at the main event of UFC 128 held in New Ark NJ.

Jones defeated Rua via TKO in the 2:37 mark of round 3 after a knee strike that put the Brazilian champ down making referee Herb Dean put the game into an end.  Subsequent to the knee strike finish, vicious elbows were thrown by Jones while at full mount on the mid section and on the face of Rua.  Jones inflicted multiple elbow strikes right through the face bringing massive damage putting the Brazilian in a quite similar situation as to his fight against Brandon Vera a year ago. 

Jones dominated all the rounds but imposed most of the damages in round 2 as he caught Rua with his wicked signature turn around elbow strike while pressuring his opponent against the cage.  He scored another take down then shifted his position as he turned his back, in an attempt to pull a leg lock few seconds before round 2 ends, and surprised Rua with a dashing hammer fist to the face.  Rua apparently has not reciprocated any of the damages the young american caused him though his great Brazilian Jiu Jitsu kept Jones to get more lucid spots to make extreme damages.  But then again it has been Jon Jones all through out the bout.

Jon Jones showed to the world how dangerous he is inside the octagon, his victory over Rua was outwardly clean and effortless.  It was pure fighting skills and creativity that made him champion.  His career is definitely still ahead of him and he will surely beat more guys up as he continues to develop to a more lethal fighter he is right now.

Rashad Evans was in the octagon at the post fight interview by Joe Rogan to announce his intention to challenge the new crowned champion.

Miguel Cotto defeated Ricardo Mayorga retaining title

The Puerto Rico's boxing pride Miguel Angel Cotto (36-2) has successfully defended his WBA Light Middleweight Championship after defeating the Nicaraguan former Welterweight champ Ricardo Mayorga (29-8) via TKO at the 0:53 mark of round 12 last Saturday.

The 30 year old Cotto dished out a vicious left hook that put down Mayorga on his knees showing signs of distress grabbing his left hand.  Mayorga managed to get up on his feet and continue but Cotto went off with a couple of punches that made the Nicaraguan submit and withdrew due to his professed injured hand.

Stirring punch exhanges took place from both fighters midway to the bout with Mayorga landing some wicked upper cuts while Cotto letting go multiple fierce counters and jabs.  Mayorga was dominant in the 7th and his counter punches were effective at 9th and 10th.  He continued sneering at Cotto halfway through round 11 but the latter kept up maintaining his stance up until that solid left in the 12th putting the fight into a gripping finish.

A post-fight announcement however came out declaring Mayorga has broken his left thumb forcing him to quit at the last round.

Phil Davis vs Antonio Rogerio Nogueira

"Mr. Wonderful" Phil Davis (8-0) is confirmed to go for his first main event appearance against the Brazilian Light Heavyweight Antonio Rogerio Nogueira (19-4) at UFC Fight Night in Seattle this coming March 26, 2011.  The still undefeated Light Heavyweight star was initially set to face Matt Hamill for the main card of UFC 129 but then agreed to replace the veteran Tito Ortiz for the spot who was reportedly forced to withdraw due to a found training injury.

A very promising young fighter establishing an out of the ordinary UFC career hype with 4 UFC winning streak since he debuted.  His diversed style of fighting will be put to a test as he will try to augment his swelling reputation by defeating Li'l Nog.  The Brazilian in return, coming from a lost from Ryan Bader at UFC 119 last September, will never make this easy as well for the young fighter.

Davis' UFC shoot up has arguably made this match more interesting and exciting than the former Ortiz-Nogueira bout.  While MMA fans are all too excited to see the Shogun-Jones Light Heavyweight championship match on March 19, this is something that will add to the excitement.  A back to back marvelous bouts are expected to show this month.
