UFC 149 from Calgary, Alberta, Canada is finished and Renan Barao has emerged with the UFC Interim Bantamweight title wrapped around his waist. He got there by using great striking and utilizing great wrestling defense. Faber could never get anything going against Barao, and while he had good movement, his offense was nonexistent at times. He appeared tentative in what may have been his final title bout. Barao will look to unify the belts against Dominick Cruz whenever Cruz is fully recuperated from knee

The main event at UFC 133 was four years in the making. The last time we saw Tito Ortiz and Rashad Evans face each other in the Octagon was back in UFC 73 which we all know ended in a draw due to Tito losing a point for grabbing the cage fence. Much has changed since 2007 and now in 2011, two completely different competitors step into the cage. One man looking for another shot at the light heavyweight title, the other a legend trying to stay relevant in today’s MMA landscape.
