Shogun Rua defeats Lyoto Machida in 3:45 of Round 1 | UFC 113

It's no secret that I'm a big fan of Lyoto Machida (aka. The Dragon).
My jaw hit the floor as I watched Mauricio "Shogun" Rua knock out Machida in under four minutes of their highly-anticipated rematch, which tool place at the Bell Centre in Montreal. In their last fight (UFC 104 in October), Machida won by a unanimous but controversial decision by the judges.
Machida has never lost a fight and I believe this was likely his first knock out.
Rua landed a grazing right and the two went down. Rua then landed a crushing right from the top that closed Machida's eye and essentially ended the fight. (from sports.yahoo.com)
Devastating. But a classic clash of mixed martial arts titans. In defeating Machida, Rua now holds the Ultimate Fighting Championship light heavyweight title.
