Well, UFC 100 is in the books, and every single favorite won. This does not mean the night was without some drama. The Dan Henderson vs Michael Bisping fight was great. Bisping kept circling into Dan Henderson's right hand and eventually got caught right on the chin. Bisping was out before he hit the mat, but this didn't stop Henderson from dropping one more viciouos blow to Bispings unconscious body. In he post fight interview, Henderson admitted it was intentional and that he wanted to shut Bisping up for a while. Mission Accomplished.
GSP vs Thiago Alves went as everyone expected. St. Pierre dominated Alves, taking him down time and time again. GSP landed some heavy ground and pound shots and had Alves bleeding from his nose early. All judges scored it five rounds to zero for St. Pierre. Joe Rogan made a funny comment during the fight when he said that there was no one at 170 to challenge GSP, and that Alves might as well retire because he will never beat him.
The best part of the Lesnar vs Mir fight wasn't the fight itself, but the post fight interview. After Lesnar completely dominated Mir and turned his face into a swollen, bloody mess, he proceed to antagonize the crowd as they booed louder and louder. He put on a show after the fight that reminded me of the old WWF post match interviews that I used to watch as a kid with Mean Gene and Jesse the Body. He was disrespectful, and he really wasn't transending what the sport is supposed to be about. That said, who the hell is gonna stop this monster. His size and strength are unmatched in mma and if he improves as a fighter, he could be the champ for quite a while.
