The New UFC Heavyweight Champion: Junior Dos Santos
Junior Dos Santos brought the fight to Cain Velasquez last night and it only took 1:04 minutes of the first round to become the new UFC Heavyweight champion. Like many who have won their first championship, he was very emotional and you can see it during his celebration, his interview with Joe Rogan, and during the post-fight press conference. You have to give “Cigano” a ton of credit since he just beat what folks considered “a fighter without any weaknesses”.

Junior Dos Santos has some vicious hands and Cain Velasquez saw them up close and personal at UFC on Fox. That overhand had shades of Chuck Liddell, and boy did it land.

Weigh-in Photos for UFC on Fox
If there was a fight weekend this is it. With the Manny Pacquiao fight happening the same day — the UFC will still make a huge splash on Saturday with the UFC on Fox. Some will even be able to see both, like me. I really can’t wait for Saturday to happen, but I’m excited to see what this whole new look with be on Fox.
