Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Neik Hammerlik (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tony Rosholt (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Hammerlik might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Motorhead-Enter Sandman. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.

That's one minute gone in the round.
Hammerfist, elbow! yells Velasquez's corner. There ya go! There ya go!
Trevor Reznik's cut is absolute horrible now. This looks like something out of a horror film with blood covering both fighters.
The referee calls the doctor in to look at Trevor Reznik's cut. Oh no, the doctor has called an end to the bout!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:31 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Cut). Cain Velasquez!
Cain Velasquez retains his heavyweight title!
