We're live here at the Mandalay Events Center in Las Vegas for UFC 81: Breaking Point. As long as the headline reads LIVE COVERAGE, hit the refresh button because we'll be updating constantly. Once the show is over, we'll post the headlines of the show as well as the live coverage.
 
 
 
Rob Emerson defeated Keita Nakamura via split decision.
 
Marvin Eastman defeated Terry Martin via unanimous decision.
 
Tim Boetsch defeated David Heath via TKO in the 1st round.
 
Chris Lytle crushed Kyle Bradley via 1st round TKO in spectacular fashion.
 
Time for the pay per view.
 
Stone Cold Steve Austin, Undertaker, and JBL (and his wife) are all in attendance.
 
Rena Lesnar is here as well as Brock's parents.
 
Barry Bonds is in attendance.
 
Tyson Griffin defeated Gleison Tibay via unanimous decision.  Randy Couture was in Griffin's corner. How awkward a locker room moment must it have been when Couture ran into Dana White?
 
Ricardo Almeida defeated Rob Yundt, who stepped in 3 days ago, with the coolest looking guillotine. This was a highlight reel moment. Almeida got the takedown and locked in a  guillotine right away. Yundt to powerbomb his way out of it but Almeieda swung underneath in the moment of the year so far. 1st round. Starmaking moment. Great finish. Wow.
 
Live, Kurt Angle is here. There is a TNA crew taping him.
 
Nate Marquardt caught Jeremy Horn with a guillotine and won via tap out. Another great finish. 2nd round.
 
Frank Mir beat Brock Lesnar at 1:30 of the 1st round via tap out to a knee bar. Imagine the Ankle Lock but hooked at the knee. It was the best 1:30 of action and drama and crowd heat I've ever seen in UFC. Lesnar was a killer. He took Mir down twice. Lesnar knocked him down. Lesnar rained down punches viciously and violently and simply got caught.  There was huge moment early on when Lesnar had taken Mir down and was just pummeling him unmercifully, raining down hard punches, when the ref jumped in and stopped the action, and deducted one point from Lesnar because one of the powerful punches he was smashing down on Mir with ended up catching a scrambling Mir in the back of the head. The action was just amazing. Lesnar also gave a tremendous post-fight humble interview that won over the crowd, which had booed him with great passion. Personally, this was a heart pounding fight and I'll personally never forget it.
 
 
Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira defeated Tim Sylvia with the guillotine to win the Interim Heavyweight Title, and officially becomes the first man to be Pride & UFC champion.
