UFC ON VERSUS 1
The first UFC on Versus card is in the books and as we leave Denver behind,
we find ourselves with two new superstars in the MMA world. Jon Jones and
Junior dos Santos proved, without a shadow of a doubt, that they are worth
the hype. Clay Guida showed that changing camps can pay dividends.
Ultimate Fighter alum Brendan Schaub got his first UFC win in under a
minute. Alessio Sakara made James Irvin and his cut to 185 pounds look very
bad. Is Cheick Kongo back? Your full UFC Wrap Up and Review is after the
jump.
