New #1 Contender; UFC 131 Results

Rogers Arena in Vancouver has been a busy place, hosting Games 1, 2, 5, (and hopefully 7 on Wednesday) of the Stanley Cup Finals, and last night it was the site of UFC 131. I was not blown away by the card, but heavyweight champ Cain Velasquez certainly had his eyes on the main event as he now knows he will next square off with Junior Dos Santos. Here are the results:
