Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) kicked off 2016 with a bang last night (Sat., Jan. 2, 2016), as fans watching around the world witnessed an epic pay-per-view (PPV) event, featuring Robbie Lawler and Carlos Condit's epic UFC 195 main event title fight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
After a legendary 25 minute "Fight of the Night," Robbie Lawler narrowly defended his title via controversial split decision. Ultimately, the incredible battle came down to a razor close third round, which two of the three judges gave to "Ruthless."
In the co-main event, Stipe Miocic staked his claim for a UFC title shot by knocking out the resurgent Andrei Arlovski in under a minute (highlights here).
