UFC 155 results recap: Junior dos Santos vs. Cain Velasquez event wrap up from Las Vegas

Wrapping up the UFC 155: "Dos Santos vs. Velasquez 2" event that took place on Sat., Dec. 29, 2012, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, featuring Junior dos Santos vs. Cain Velasquez and much, much more.

USA TODAY Sports

UFC 155: "Dos Santos vs. Velasquez 2" blew the roof off the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, last night (Sat., Dec. 29, 2012) featuring a main event of Heavyweight Champion Junior dos Santos falling hard in the rematch against Cain Velasquez, who dominated the bout from pillar to post for five full round.

A good old fashioned passionate 25-minute ass whooping.

The co-headlining attraction saw Jim Miller open up on Joe Lauzon, sticking him hard enough to open a deep gash that would eventually require 40 stitches to close. These two also won "Fight of the Night" honors.

The other three main card bouts saw Constantinos Philippou take out Tim Boetsch, Yushin Okami grind Alan Belcher into dust, and Derek Brunson make a successful Octagon debut with a decision victory over Chris Leben.

In cased you missed any or all of it -- or just want to keep the discussion alive -- below are links to all the major storylines borne from Saturday night's event in Seattle.
