Heading into the main event of UFC 110, many MMA experts pointed to the suspect power of heavyweight Cain Velasquez and the legendary chin of Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira as a reason "Big Nog" would eventually defeat his much-younger opponent.
Many MMA experts were horribly wrong.
Instead, Velasquez destroyed Nogueira on the feet in less than one-half
of a round in the main event of "UFC 110: Nogueira vs. Velasquez" at
Acer Arena in Sydney, Australia.
