The main event of tonight's (Sat., Dec. 20, 2014) UFC Fight Night 58: "Machida vs. Dollaway" event in Barueri, Brazil, featured CB Dollaway challenging Lyoto Machida for the right to challenge for the middleweight championship. That was his thought, at least, considering "The Dragon's" last fight was for that very title.
About that...
The two spent the first 30 seconds feeling each other out. Machida went low with a kick and Dollaway answered by going high. Plenty of feints, footwork, and anticipation.
It was paid off in a big way.
Machida, suddenly and with sickening power, fired off a kick to the body that slapped against's Dollaway's skin and sent his insides bouncing around. The sound of that shin colliding with stomach was brutal.
Dollaway crumpled. "The Dragon" followed up with punches and it wasn't long before the referee was forced to step in an stop it.
Just like that.
Ouch.
