Russia, Brazil, Japan, the good ol’ US of A…for decades they’ve been the big four in the MMA game. But if UFC 105 proved anything it proved there’s a new player in the game—the United Kingdom.

It seems like whenever two fighters enter the octagon for a UFC fight these days the chances of a major controversy occurring are about even odds. Last night at UFC 104 in LA, all the signs pointed to a decision victory for Mauricio "Shogun" Rua over the vaunted Lyoto Machida. After all, Rua had dominated the last 2 rounds. Some say he dominated the last three. By the fourth round, Machida looked like he had run into a wall and could barely keep his hands up to defend himself anymore.
