Fabricio Werdum was the biggest winner on Saturday night in Mexico at UFC 188. The 37-year-old Brazilian defeated Cain Velasquez by guillotine choke in the third round of the main event. Werdum won the undisputed heavyweight championship with the victory.
He was the interim champion and Velasquez the recognized king of the division coming into the bout, but in the end, there could be only one. Werdum and Velasquez were supposed to meet in Mexico in November 2014, but an injury forced Velasquez out.
He has battled injuries over the last two years and hadn't fought since 2013.
