Wow!  That was awesome.  At UFC 139 Dan "Hendo" Henderson defeated Mauricio "Shogun" Rua by unanimous decision in what many are now calling the "greatest MMA fight of all time."  Although not the first non-title 5-Round UFC Main Event, it was the first to actually go the full five rounds.  An amazing five rounds of back and forth action which saw "Hendo" dominate the first few frames only to have "Shogun" finish the fight on top.
