Wow awesome omoplata finish by Saunders! Does anyone know when the last time we saw one in the UFC (if it all)? I can't remember off the top of my head. Anyways I was looking forward to Saunder's return and it seems like with good reason.

What was funny (or sad) was that Jon Anik didn't even mention it in the post fight interview. Just went through the most textbook questions and replies in robot-like fashion like he always does. I wish Joe was commentating, he probably would've been screaming lol

According to Werdum, it's the first ever in UFC history.

Leites looked like a different beast tonight, that was a brutal finish.

Dat beard, dat aggression, dat bulk.

Here's hoping his test comes clean.

Glad they replayed this,
Ive talked so much shit about omoplatas (them being useless and only ok for transitions) so its nice to see someone finally get a tap from it.

I don't like Henderson at all but that stoppage was too fast. He looked like he gathered himself as soon as he went down. Oh well, at least I dont have to watch an inevitable 5 round decision

A tiny bit early on the stoppage, but I don't think the ending would have been different. Bendo was heavily rocked twice in a row and Dos Anjos was not letting up.

What an upset.
