Leben KOing Silva_UFC 132

Fans were hoping for fireworks last night when former PRIDE middleweight champ Wanderlei ‘The Axe Murderer’ Silva and Chris ‘The Crippler’ Leben finally entered the Octagon for last nights UFC 132 co-main event. What they got was certainly something explosive, and sadly, very short.

Leben would put Silva down in just 27 seconds of the first round, possibly ending the Brazilian’s career with the UFC as the loss was Silva’s sixth loss in eight fights. Four of those losses, including last nights, were by devastating knockout.
