UFC 113 Wiki
After one of the more controversial decisions in UFC history allowed Lyoto Machida to hold on to his UFC Light Heavyweight Championship belt and undefeated record in September of 2009, top contender Mauricio “Shogun” Rua got his chance at redemption just eight months later. An aggressive Rua made the most of his second chance, knocking the defending champion out cold in the first round and erasing all doubt as to the new king of the light heavyweight division. During the short fight, Shogun tore his ACL—a recurring injury throughout his career—which kept him sidelined until 2011.
The co-main event, a grudge match between trash-talking young lions Josh Koscheck and Paul Daley, delivered unwelcome fireworkds. After Koscheck dominated Daley with superior wrestling throughout the affair and insulted Daley at the close of the third round, Daley threw a punch at him after the bell. The result was Daley’s immediate and permanent expulsion from the promotion at the hands of an angry Dana White. For his win, Koscheck was granted a title shot and a coaching spot opposite Georges St-Pierre on Season 12 of The Ultimate Fighter.
