ANAHEIM – Cain Velasquez came into his heavyweight title fight at UFC 121 hoping for a five-round battle. He ended up needing just over four minutes to stop Brock Lesnar via TKO and claim the UFC heavyweight title in front of 14,856 fans at the Honda Center on Saturday night.

It may have been a relatively brief affair, but what it lacked in length it more than made up for in intensity.

Lesnar set the pace right away. As soon as the bout began, the champion took one step directly to the side and then charged across the cage at Velasquez, bringing all of his 264 pounds crashing directly into the challenger.

ANAHEIM, Calif. – Moments before he made his entrance to a chorus of jeers and cheers at UFC 121 in the Honda Center on Saturday night, a bearded Brock Lesnar appeared on the big screen to identify himself as the baddest man on the planet – a claim he’s repeated often lately, and one which few have bothered to argue.

Not long after that, the big man was sitting on the canvas, watching Cain Velasquez celebrate as the new champion while a cageside doctor attended to Lesnar’s bloody face.

Funny how quickly reality can shift in this business, often right out from under your feet.

For the moments in Saturday night’s main event where he was charging forward, Lesnar looked every bit as ferocious as advertised. But when it failed to stop Velasquez from offering up any offense of his own, that’s when we were reminded that we really don’t know all that much about this guy who, just minutes earlier, was calling himself the best.

Awesome interview by Ariel Helwani post-UFC 121 with WWE star the Undertaker.

Right after the headliner, the Undertaker was giving Helwani a little post-fight analysis, when Brock Lesnar walked by them. The Undertaker and Lesnar exchanged a tense look and a few words. Then, the Undertaker started giving Helwani a more candid view of Lesnar, more or less admitting there is some tension between the two WWE greats and that Lesnar should be training harder.

Kudos to Helwani for seeing an opportunity to get Undertaking talking and asking the right questions.

Watch above for more, and look for the Undertaker/Lesnar exchange around the :48 mark.

Interesting side note on that: did odds makers know Lesnar wasn’t training hard for this fight?
