Junior dos Santos came, he saw, and he conquered last night at UFC on Fox I at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. After avoiding a brief takedown attempt and bevy of leg kicks from the champion, Dos Santos zapped champion Cain Velasquez with a beautiful right, downing the champion and allowing Dos Santos to swarm for the finish.
It was revealed after the fight that both men suffered knee injuries during training camp. Dos Santos suffered a torn meniscus on a week-and-a-half out from the fight while Velasquez had a cortisone shot injected into his knee so that he could fight on Saturday night.
Above is the FoxSports.com highlight package, showing all of the great action that could be gleaned from the short, sixty-four seconds of fight time in the Octagon. The video includes the knockout, all of the post-fight replays, and the post-fight interview with Joe Rogan, which I consider one of the best we've seen in awhile.
