This time, Cain Velasquez got his finish. In an absolutely brutal conclusion to their trilogy, Velasquez finished Junior dos Santos in the fifth and final round Saturday night at Houston's Toyota Center.
The main event of UFC 166 was stopped at 3:09 of the final round as Velasquez retained his UFC heavyweight championship.
For quite some time, it appeared the bout was going to be a repeat of their second fight, one in which Velasquez dominated the bout to regain the title he had lost to dos Santos, but dos Santos went the distance.
But it wasn't quite meant to be. The final exchange came when dos Santos, game until the end, went to take a choke to the mat, slipped, hit his head off the mat, and found himself open for a flurry by the champion.
