Strikeforce live results: Mousasi vs. King Mo
The Strikeforce light heavyweight title is up for grabs, as champion Gegard Mousasi (28-2-1) defends against Muhammed "King Mo" Lawal (6-0-0). Mousasi is on a 15-fight winning streak and is one of the most poised and impressive fighters in the sport right now. King Mo is a former amateur wrestling standout that has had immediate success knocking guys out, so he's already a double threat. He figures to have a very bright future in MMA. It might be too early for a challenge like Mousasi, but a lot of people are picking King Mo for the upset tonight. Round 1: Before the fight begins, the crowd is cheering for King Mo. Mousasi with a head kick, Mo checks it. Mo with an overhand right. Left hook by King Mo. Mo goes for a single leg and takes Mousasi down as Mousasi hammers away at his head. Mo working in Mousasi's guard. Mo looking for some ground and pound but Mousasi is defending well. -

Strikeforce live results: Melendez vs. Aoki
It's champion vs. champion as Strikeforce lightweight champ Gilbert "El Nino" Melendez (17-2-0) defends his title against visiting champion from Japan's DREAM organization, Shinya Aoki (23-4-0, 1 NC). The key for Melendez here is to avoid submissions, which is easily the biggest weapon in Aoki's arsenal. That may affect Melendez's strategy in that he could avoid engaging in a wrestling match and try to keep it standing. Or if it does hit the mat, Melendez will have to be sure not to get too careless with ground and pound. Round 1: Melendez with a punch to the gut as he tries to establish his range. Right hand by Melendez. Aoki throws a right kick and Melendez catches the leg to trip him down. Melendez lets him up, wisely. Aoki circles with his back to the cage as Melendez stalks him. Another punch to the guy by Melendez and Aoki accidentally jabs him in the eye for a brief stoppage. -

UFC 112 live results: Silva vs. Maia
Time for the middleweight title fight: Anderson Silva vs. Demian Maia. Silva looks more confident than ever coming to the Octagon. Nothing fazes this guy. They keep showing Georges St. Pierre at cageside and teasing that he's interested in this fight. I guess they're setting up Silva vs. St-Pierre after all. But first, Silva vs. Maia... Round 1: Maia stalking forward cautiously as Silva waits for his opening. Silva with a side kick to the shin. Interesting. Silva with an outside leg kick that spins Maia around on his feet. Silva head fakes a strike and Maia leaps backward, covering half the distance of the Octagon. -

UFC 112 live results: Penn vs. Edgar
It's time for the lightweight title bout pitting champion BJ Penn vs. challenger Frankie Edgar. Penn is one of the top fighters in the world at any weight class. Let's see if Edgar can crack the code. Round 1: Edgar with a leg kick, moving in and out very quickly to try and avoid the accuracy of Penn's strikes. Edgar whiffs on a few feeler jabs, then gets out again to avoid a counterstrike. Left jab by Penn connects. Both guys throwing strikes conservatively. Leg kick by Edgar. Edgar uses a punch to set up a single leg, but Penn stuffed the attempt and landed a few good punches in the process. Edgar moves in quickly and still eats a fist combo before getting back out of range. Edgar with a combo of body punches into a quickly aborted takedown attempt. Edgar with another punch into a body lock, but Penn throws him off. End of the round, and I'd give it to Penn 10-9, but he's already got a mouse under his left eye. -

UFC 112 live results: Hughes vs. Gracie
Matt Hughes (43-7-0) vs. Renzo Gracie (13-6-1, 1 NC) is up next at welterweight. This is a pair of legit MMA legends fighting each other for the very first time. This is Renzo Gracie's first fight since an underwhelming DQ victory over Frank Shamrock at the first EliteXC show (remember those guys?) way back in February 2007. He is making his UFC debut at the age of 43. Round 1: Hughes looking to stand with Gracie early. He whiffs on a body kick. Gracie looks very tentative. Hughes with a leg kick. Gracie with a left hook, but he still looks hesitant to follow up. Gracie with a nice one-two combo up the middle. Hughes reverses his back to the fence with a body lock. Gracie escapes before Hughes can work him over. Hughes moves in for another body lock and throws a knee to the ribs. Gracie breaks free again. -

UFC 112 live results: Etim vs. Dos Anjos
Up next is Terry Etim (14-2-0) vs. Rafael Dos Anjos (13-4-0) at lightweight. Etim is looking for his fifth straight win in the UFC. He finished his last three opponents in the second round. Dos Anjos has fought in the Octagon four times, winning three, with the only loss coming at the hands of Tyson Griffin. Round 1: Outside leg kick by Etim. Dos Anjos is working from a southpaw stance. Right head kick by Etim is blocked. Dos Anjos with a double leg takedown, and Etim slaps on a guillotine choke on the way down. Etim's holding on to the choke, but Dos Anjos is patiently waiting for a chance to pull free. He's not in immediate danger. Etim also has a body triangle applied from the bottom. Dos Anjos slips free and passes to the side. -

UFC 112 live results: Grove vs. Munoz
We kick off the main card with a middleweight bout pitting Kendall "Da Spyder" Grove (11-6-0, 1 NC) vs. former All-American collegiate wrestler Mark Munoz (7-1-0). Munoz is looking for his third UFC win in a row, after debuting in the promotion with a loss to Matt Hamill a year ago. Round 1: Grove has an eight-inch reach advantage, which is par for the course for him. Munoz tries to get inside, but he's wary of the reach. He moves in and catches a knee to the ribs. Munoz goes for a takedown and Grove unsuccessfully tries to sprawl. Munoz lands a nice right hand to the face from above, then tags Grove three more times as he stands up. Munoz shoots for another takedown and eats a basty-looking right uppercut that puts him on his backside for a couple of seconds. Munoz regroups and tries to finish the takedown as Grove hammers away from above. Munoz is still fighting for a takedown as Grove defends with his back to the fence. The referee separates them.
