At UFC 180, the heavyweight division crowned a new interim champion, Fabricio Werdum.
Knocked down and unable to threaten Mark Hunt on the ground during the opening round, Werdum didn’t look great early on. However, the Brazilian turned things around suddenly with a flying knee in the second stanza. The strike floored Hunt, who could not recover before the bout was stopped.
Werdum has solidified his spot right behind fellow champion Cain Velasquez on the heavyweight ladder. However, was his victory on Saturday enough to earn him a spot in the pound-for-pound rankings?
