10:52 AM ET 11.20 | Dan Henderson and Mauricio "Shogun" Rua's light heavyweight match no doubt left quite an impression on everyone present at UFC 139 on Saturday night, including the fighters themselves. Both men's eyes were severely swollen and Rua's shorts were covered in the blood of both opponents. In the end, Henderson was declared the unanimous victor of a match that even impressed UFC President Dana White, who has seen more than a few mixed martial arts bouts in his day. "That's without a doubt one of the top three best fights ever in MMA," White said. "I have so much respect for both of those guys to dig down that deep in a five-round fight. That was like our Ali-Frazier III. It was incredible."

I got the PPV. Worth every shekel I had to lay out. I'll watch it again on Friday since I recorded it.

The prelims were good, the undercard was goo and the two main fights were great with the Henderson-Rua one being stellar.

Not a dog in the bunch.

MMA is finishing up the year strong leading into 2012. Can't wait to see what the sport will look like 5 yrs from now. My son at a young age will be training to hopefully he will be interested in the sport.
