UFC 132 Results: Dominick Cruz Defeats Urijah Faber

UFC 132 takes place on Saturday, July 2 from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, NV.  The main event features the first UFC bantamweight title fight ever as Dominick Cruz defends his title against the only fighter to ever defeat him, Urijah Faber.

The two fighters have admitted that they do not like each other in the least and a win will surely give one of them ammunition to continue the battle they have waged since first meeting in 2007, a fight that Faber won via first round submission.

Cruz opened things up by connecting with two punches. Faber then worked a takedown that was defended ably by Cruz.

Cruz landed some heavy leg kicks much like Jose Aldo did when he defeated Faber.

The second round began with Cruz again coming out fast and with his hands low, confident that his speed could negate anything that Faber could bring.

WIth 30 seconds left in the round Cruz scored a brief takedown. WIth ten seconds left in the round Cruz scored with a nice combination.

As the third round began it looked as if Faber was struggling to deal with the awkward style of Cruz.

With 2:10 left in the round Faber took Cruz down, but Cruz reversed and Faber was able to get back to his feet quickly.

Cruz opened the fourth coming right out and landing a strike to Faber.  Faber dropped Cruz with a big right, but he was able to get right back to his feet.

Cruz started to slow his pace as the round progressed.

AS the final round started Cruz came out with a flying knee. Cruz then went into the clinch forcing Faber to hold his weight against the cage.

Cruz landed a few short takedowns, but he was unable to secure any for a prolonged period of time.

The fight goes to the cards:50-45, 49-46, 48-47 to Cruz

UFC 132 Results: Dennis Siver Defeats Matt Wiman

UFC 132 takes place on Saturday, July 2 from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, NV.  The main event features the first UFC bantamweight title fight ever as Dominick Cruz defends his title against the only fighter to ever defeat him, Urijah Faber. 

The co-main event features the long awaited return of Wanderlei Silva, who faces Chris Leben.  Also appearing on the main card was Tito Ortiz who faces Ryan Bader.

The third fight on the main card featured Dennis Siver (18-7) against Matt WIman (13-5).

Siver came into the fight after defeating the highly ranked George Sotiropoulos in his last bought, while Wiman was coming off a win over Cole Miller.

Early on these two looked like they were only interested in ending the fight by KO, but Wiman mixed it up about 2:00 in when he landed a brief takedown. Siver’s takedown defense was solid and he kept Wiman at bay.

In the second round the fight went to the ground with Wiman working inside the guard of Siver, opening him up with an elbow.

Siver did a very poor job of controlling Wiman and Siver was bleeding badly from the elbows that Wiman seemed to be landing at will.

The third round was uneventful until Wiman attempted a choke that he could not stick and he then caught a leg from Siver and took the fight to the ground.

Siver was able to stand and he put Wiman to the ground with a leg kick with 15 seconds left, but he could not make anything happen as the horn souned.

This one went to the cards: 29-28 to Siver. WIman ripped his hand from the referee’s grasp, threw his hat and stormed from the cage as the fans booed the call.
