BARUERI, Brazil - Former UFC light heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida proved he is still one of the worlds best mixed martial artists, needing just 62 seconds to dispose of C.B. Dollaway.The contest served as the headlining bout of Saturdays UFC Fight Night: Machida vs. Dollaway event.It was Dollaway (15-6) who came out looking to push the pace, as he pawed a jab and looked to put Machida on the defensive. But The Dragon, a karate master, twitched his hips with fakes as he measured his opponent. When he saw an opening, Machida (22-5) struck with a kick to the body that saw Dollaway double over in pain.Machida seized the moment, rushing forward with punches before Dollaway could recover, and the fight was waved off at the 1:02 mark of the first round.Im very happy with this opportunity, Machida said. C.B. is a very tough fighter. I saw that he felt it and I went in for the finish.In the nights co-feature, Sudbury, Ont., native Mitch Gagnon (12-3) fell short in his bid to score an upset win over former UFC bantamweight champion Renan Barao (33-2).While Gagnon was a heavy underdog coming into the contest, he proved himself as a worthy adversary, standing toe-to-toe in several exchanges and landing a few heavy punches. But the former champ proved impossible to take to the floor, leaving submission-specialist Gagnon unable to fight in his preferred position. As such, he began to tire, and Baraos offence remained strong.After banking the first two rounds, Barao earned a finish in the third, scoring a takedown of his own and working into position for an arm-triangle choke that forced Gagnon to tap out at the 3:53 mark of the final round.I thought I did some good things and bad things — and I got caught, Gagnon said.Light heavyweight Patrick Cummins (7-1) earned his third-straight UFC win by scoring a clear cut decision victory over Antonio Carlos Junior (5-1).Carlos Juniors vaunted jiu-jitsu skills were on full display, as he tried to attack his opponents leg with a series of first-round submission attempts. But Cummins defended each move with ease and returned fire by scoring punches from top position.Cummins was more dominant as the fight wore on. While Carlos Junior tried to launch a few heavy blows on the feet, Cummins slipped underneath the attacks each time and brought his opponent to the floor, where he grinded out a unanimous decision, 30-27 on all three judges cards.He did everything we expected, and for the most part we were ready for it, Cummins said. It was just a matter of following the gameplan. He is a great jiu-jitsu fighter, so I needed to make sure I had the control over his hands and posture.In a battle of lightweight prospects, Dagestani fighter Rashid Magomedov (18-1) earned a record-setting win over previously undefeated Elias Silverio (11-1).The fight was largely a standup affair, as the two traded punches and kicks on the feet. But as time wore on, Magomedovs speed and accuracy began to pay dividends. His counter attacks were powerful and drew blood over Silverios right eye. And just as it looked as through Magomedov would cruise to a decision win, he dropped Silverio with a crushing left hand and continued to punch away on the floor until the bout was waved off with just three seconds left.It was the latest stoppage in a three-round fight in UFC history.Elias is a strong opponent and a great fighter, Magomedov said. It wasnt easy to fight him, but everything happened the way it was supposed to happen.In a welterweight matchup, Brazilian Erick Silva (17-5) rebounded from a devastating May loss to Matt Brown by scoring an impressive first-round stoppage versus Mike Rhodes (6-4).After some early exchanges on the feet, Silva took the fight to the floor and quickly worked in an arm-triangle choke, squeezing the hold until Rhodes went to sleep and referee Mario Yamasaki stopped the fight. The whole process took 75 seconds.It was exactly the way I expected it to be, Silva said. Me and my team trained exactly this, the fight went the way we planned 100 per cent. I didnt even have the time to make mistakes.In the nights first main-card contest, The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil finalist Daniel Sarafian (10-5) picked up a much needed win over fellow middleweight Antonio dos Santos Jr. (6-2), albeit in bizarre fashion.After the two traded bombs for the entirety of the opening round, dos Santos Jr. threw a left hook in the second and immediately called for time after apparently dislocation his finger on contact. However, as the blow came through legal action, dos Santos Jr. did not have the right to ask for a reprieve, and referee Eduardo Herdy called off the fight, awarding Sarafian a TKO win, 61 seconds into the round.I didnt know I was stopping the fight, dos Santos Jr. said. I felt my finger popping out, put it back and tried to get back in the fight. Then the referee told me I asked the fight to stop and that the fight was over. Alonzo Mourning Jersey .

Stricker was replaced in the field by Ryo Ishikawa of Japan.PHOENIX -- Gerald Green was in a generous mood after his best game of the season. Green had a strong second half to finish with a season-high 28 points and lead the Phoenix Suns in a 121-114 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday night. Green then pledged to pay any fine the NBA might hand down to rookie teammate Alex Len, who was ejected after a flagrant foul following an altercation involving the Lakers Nick Young in the second quarter. "Hope the NBA doesnt do anything, but if it does, Ill take care of it," Green said. Green was careful with his shooting, shying away for 3-point attempts and finishing 12 for 18 from the field. "I felt like I wasnt settling for my jumper," Green said. "Coach is still telling to shoot the ball so Im going to continue to do that. I just tried not to take as many 3s as I normally do." Channing Frye had 10 of his 20 points in the fourth quarter and Markieff Morris scored 17 of his 24 in the first half to help the Suns snap a three-game skid. Goran Dragic added 18 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists. Pau Gasol scored 24 points to lead the Lakers and Wesley Johnson had 22 against his former team. Los Angeles, already short-handed with five players -- including star Kobe Bryant -- out with injuries, lost leading-scorer Young midway through the second quarter when he was ejected for throwing a punch at Dragic. After being hit in the face by Len going up for a layup, Young retaliated by shoving Len and then swinging at Dragics face while being pushed away from the fray. Len was tossed and the Suns Marcus Morris was issued a technical foul for his role in the fracas. Young, who had nine points at the time, took off his jersey and tossed his undershirt into the crowd on his way to the locker room. "I just reacted and got caught up in the moment. Like anyone would have," Young said. "It was a tough foul." Young expressed his displeasure with his teammates for not coming to his defence after the Lakers lost for the sixth straight time. Young could face a suspension for his actions and leave the Lakers in more dire straits. "What Im mad about is it was 1-on-5," Young said. "I felt like if someone would have gotten in the middle of everything it wouldnt have escalated as much. I felt baad for Dragic.dddddddddddd He was right there. I didnt throw (a) punch. I was trying to shove people out of my way. I was getting pushed further back. It was more trying to get out." The Lakers led by 13 points in the second quarter after Youngs ejection. A 3-pointer from the top of the key by Kendall Marshall gave the Lakers a 56-43 lead. The Suns finished the quarter on an 11-2 run, topped off by P.J. Tuckers layup at the halftime buzzer to cut the Lakers lead to 58-54. The Suns led by eight in the first quarter, but the Lakers scored the last nine points of the period to take a 27-26 lead into the second. Back-to-back baskets by Chris Kaman put Los Angeles ahead. Green scored 16 of his points in the third quarter, and his block of Gasols layup attempt started a fast-break resulted in a basket by Dragic that put the Suns ahead 72-70. Greens step-back 20-foot jumper gave the Suns a 79-74 lead with 4:09 left in the third. His chest-pass assist for Fryes dunk made it 86-79 for Phoenix with 55 seconds left. "We started attacking the rim," Frye said. "We need to be aggressive, take advantage of mismatches and get out and run." The Lakers tied the score at 91 with Johnsons 3-pointer at the 9:53 mark of the fourth quarter. But back-to-back layups from Suns reserve Ish Smith made it 102-93, and the Suns were never seriously threatened the rest of the way. "Were not winning and again, we gave up 30-some (37) in transition and about 60 or 70 (64) in the paint, and thats where its been the last five or six games," Lakers coach Mike DAntoni said. "Weve got to be able to solve that problem somehow." NOTES: The Suns are a win away from their first regular season sweep of the Lakers since the 2004-2005 season. ...
