In what was billed as the biggest fight in mixed martial arts history it was UFC Lightweight champion BJ "The Prodigy" Penn challenging Georges "Rush" St. Pierre for his UFC Welterweight champion. These two had met previously back in 2006 that ended in a split decision victory in favor of GSP. It didn't have a chance to go to the judges this time as St. Pierre vicously and completly dominated Penn. Penn was forced to quit between the fourth and fifth round.
In the co-main event Lyoto Machida gained another victory to remain undefeated. Machida KO'd the previously unbeaten Thiago Silva 4:59 into the first round. “People, do I deserve a title shot,” asked Machida of the packed house that roared in the affirmative. “I’m ready - whenever, wherever, whoever.”
