The Staples Center was the site for UFC on FOX 4: Shogun vs. Vera. The co-main event served as a platform to see who would get the next Light Heavyweight Title shot against the winner of Jon Jones- Dan Henderson next month. Shogun defeated Vera, but Machida was more impressive in his victory over Bader, therefore Dana White decided to give it to Machida.
Honestly, Jones has beaten all 4 of the guys who were in the mix and none of the fights interest me.
Also on the card, Mike Swick returned to action and got a huge welterweight win, and Joe Lauzon tapped out Jamie Varner... Full result below:
•Mauricio "Shogun" Rua def. Brandon Vera via TKO (punches) - Round 4, 4:09
