UFC 128 Results: Brendan Schaub Defeats Mirko Cro Cop

It looked like we might be headed for a draw considering the point deduction and an apparently broken nose that had disrupted Brendan Schaub's rhythm.

However, the Hybrid seemed to sense the possibility so he abandoned the standing exchanges and shot in for a couple takedowns. The second time proved to be the charm and he rode the position out using nice balance for a couple minutes, scoring valuable points with some ground 'n' pound in the process.

Cro Cop finally pushed the American off and sprung to his feet, but Brendan used his size and athleticism to fend off the Croatian's advances until the anvil dropped in a moment eerily similar of both Mirko's loss to Gonzaga and Mir.

A straight right to Mirko's left temple slammed him to the canvas and one insult to injury fell before Dean saved the sleeping giant.

Dear me, that got really ugly really quickly.

Brendan Schaub defeats Mirko Cro Cop by TKO (strikes) at 3:44 of the third round.
