My God This Crane Kick: UFC on Fox Sports 1 Video Highlights


Well, that was an interesting night of quick stoppages on the UFC's debut on Fox Sports 1. The conspiracy theorist in me is always suspicious, but I'll suspend my disbelief and simply enjoy a bunch of stoppages. Matt Brown put away Kyle early. Mike Brown got folded up. Urijah Faber out wrestled his way past a mid-level contender and stakes his claim as the best gate keeper in the UFC. Travis Browne inexplicably overcame what could have easily IMO been the end of the fight and Shogun got guillotined by Chael Sonnen. Being a Shogun fan is heartbreaking at times. God, it is heartbreaking, but the fight game is no place for sympathy.

On to the highlights:

Shogun, you would have done better to work on you wrestling than to work your jab with a boxing trainer:



Travis Browne shows the awesomeness that is the crane kick:
 


Urijah Faber shows why he is always the second best lower weight class fighter in several divisions:
