UFC 104 takes place tonight from the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California.

The fight card features the first title defense of light heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida against Mauricio "Shogun" Rua. Also, top heavyweight prospect, Cain Velasquez, battles IFL and Affliction veteran Ben Rothwell. Yesterday Anthony Johnson missed weight by a whopping 6lbs. Will a difficult weight cut hurt Johnson when he faces Yoshiyuki Yoshida?

• Lyoto Machida defeats Mauricio "Shogun" Rua via unanimous decision (48-47, 48-47, 48-47). Machida retains the light-heavyweight title.
• Cain Velasquez defeats Ben Rothwell via TKO (punches) - Round 2, 0:58.
