* UFC 123: Rampage vs Machida


I've been waiting for a Rampage fight for months and finally Rampage is back to fight against the former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Lyoto "The Dragon" Machida. This UFC event's co-main event was also a good match-up between BJ Penn and Matt Hughes which is their third fight, Penn won the first bout and Hughes won the second one.

It was a good UFC event but I was shocked for the Penn and Hughes fight because Penn KO'd Hughes 21 seconds in the first round. Rampage also won via split decision and he was shocked that he got the victory, it was a different Rampage now and he is more calm and focus now.
