Brock Lesnar became the new UFC heavyweight champion in the UFC 91 main event on Saturday night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, knocking out heavyweight title-holder and UFC hall of famer Randy Couture with strikes midway through the second round of their championship bout.

Kenny Florian, Dustin Hazelett, Gabriel Gonzaga, and Demian Maia were also victorious on the UFC 91 main card.

Mike Brown upset WEC featherweight champion Urijah Faber on Wednesday night, TKO’ing the 145-pound champ midway through the opening round of their headlining bout at WEC 36 “Faber vs. Brown” at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida.

Faber appeared to have the upper hand early, connecting more frequently with strikes while Brown looked for takedowns. On a single-leg attempt midway through the frame Faber made a minor mistake and Brown capitalized, rocking Faber with a right before dropping him to the canvas with a left. Brown followed him to the ground and finished him off with strikes to force the referee to step in and declare Brown the new WEC featherweight champion.
