Filed under: UFC, Strikeforce
Now that we've all caught our breath, gotten a little sleep, and prepared ourselves to approach Saturday night's dueling MMA events like calm, rational individuals, let's dig through the results and get worked up all over again.Without further delay, here are the big winners, losers, and everything in between after the TUF 12 Finale and Strikeforce: Henderson vs. Babalu.
Biggest Winner: Dan Henderson
A blind man would have known this fight was over once he heard the sound of Hendo's right hand thumping against "Babalu" Sobral's skull. But because Sobral managed to keep his eyes open even as they rolled around in his head, it wasn't stopped until after Henderson had landed several more memory-busters, just for completely unnecessary good measure. The impressive brutality of the win goes a long way towards erasing Henderson's loss to Shields in the minds of fans, but we should probably reserve judgment until we see him in a fight with an opponent who's still in his prime. An opponent like, say, light heavyweight champion "Feijao" Cavalcante.
