A beautiful week for MMA

Last week was MMA heaven for fans.

We were treated to 3 excellent main events and co-main event fights

1. Hendo vs Shogun (UFC 139) dubbed by Dana White as one of the top three fights in UFC
2. Wanderlei Silva vs Cung Le (UFC 139)
3. Eddie Alvarez vs Micahel Chandler ( Bellator 58) Chandler won via RNC in the 4th round which makes him the new Bellator Lightweight Champ

Not to mention young talents like Michael Macdonald and Chris Weidman won their matches respectively in a very convincing manner. Muay Thai world champ, Cosmo Alexandre won his first MMA pro fight after losing his debut and he did it in 20 seconds via KO

Hector Lombard bombarded Prangley with vicious punches and won by TKO which leaves him a record of 20straight wins ever since his last draw against UFC fighter Kyle Noke in 2007.

Wanderlei was not the only big name who return into the cage with a win, Fedor Emelianenko and Ryan Bader also returned to form by beating Jeff Monson and Jason Brilz respectively with the Bader looking more impressive with him finishing Brilz in the 1st by KO.

Special mention goes to Martin Kampmann for his split decision victory against Rick Story. The Xtreme Couture stand out has lost the last two fights to Jake Shields and Diego Sanchez via close decisions finally has a decision going his way. Congrats to Mr. Kampmann.

On another note, Strikeforce returns with Strikeforce Challengers and my it did put on an awesome card. Biggest winners are Lumumba Sayers for knocking out Antwain Britt and Rowdy Ronda Rousey for finishing Julia Budd via Arm Bar (It was a sick arm bar). The whole event had only one fight that went the distance.

All in all a good week for MMA fans for we have been treated with some of the best fights this year.
