Post-Fight Press Conference

Dana said he was disappointed with the performance of the fighters tonight. "Struve, Johnson, and Carvalho all deserve to be thanked, not only because they finished their fights but because their fights didn't suck. And of course Gomi deserves credit because he will be the lightweight divisions next challenger."

Edwards said that he wasn't busy enough in the fight and couldn't hurt Guida. He apologized for his lacklustre performance.

Guida said that he followed his game plan and grinded out a decision win.

Kenny Florian said he needs to step back for awhile and re-evaluate his career as a fight. "I was really confident I would win this fight and then to be knocked out for the first time in my career it is very dissatisfying."

Takanori Gomi said he was excited to challenge for a title, especially in the UFC.

Frankie Edgar: "I want to be the best. I want to become the UFC Lightweight Champion and to do that I need to beat BJ Penn."

BJ Penn: "Im not afraid because Edgar has never been beaten, that just gives me more motivation to break that. I am the best in the world and I will show that at UFC 112."

Michael Bisping: "A brazilian should not be champion when the English are clearly superior. People call him the greatest but I will show him that even he has weaknesses."

Anderson Silva: "Brazil is my home. I do not respect him. We will fight. I win."

Joe Rogan: "Two titles are on the line, in the co-main event Frankie Edgar - a nearly perfected mixed martial artist will dispute BJ Penns title. In the main event, Michael Bisping has stepped up and dropped weight because no one in the division is ready to fight Anderson Silva. These guys hate each other and there's no way it won't finish with someone unconscious."

*Show Edgars wins over Hermes Franca, Gray Maynard, and Sean Sherk*

*Show Penns wins over Sanchez, Sherk, and Pulver*

*Show Bispings TKO finish of Josh Haynes*

*Show Anderson's (guillotine) Submission finish of Patrick Cote and (RNC) of Yushin Okami*

*Show Bispings (arm bar) SUB finish of Chris Leben and (guillotine) of Denis Kang*

*Show Anderson's (knee) KO finishes of Rich Franklin and Thales Leitas*

Mike Goldberg: "Two titles will be disputed!"

The Joe Rogan Experience: on UFC 112

On the preliminary card:

Joe: Ryan Healy and Chris Horodecki, both young prospects, will fight in what can be assumed a standup battle. Healy as everyone knows put on the greatest fight of all time against Palaszewski but has yet to fruit in the sport. Charles Oliveira and Court McGee, who will both be making their debut are two awesome fighters. They will be key to watch over the next few years.

On the main card:

Joe: Rick Story (1-0 in UFC) and Rory MacDonald (UFC debut) are two young rising stars that will both be looking to come out with a big win. In a division that is being cleared out by Champion Georges St-Pierre a win could place them in the top of the division. Coming fresh off a win against Fedor Emelianenko, Rodrigo Noguiera will look to defeat Houston Alexander and possibly be in place for title contention. Nick Diaz (14-1) and Matt Hughes (27-5) are two UFC vets and this should be a grapplers dream match.

On the co-main event:

Joe: BJ Penn is undoubtably one of the greatest fighters to ever enter the UFC but Frankie Edgar has looked stellar in his 7 UFC matches. Beating some of the divisions best. This will be a match to remember!

On the main event:

Joe: Michael Bisping, a natural 205er, has dropped the weight and decided to take a swing at Anderson Silva. He literally called Dana and said: "I know that Silva has wiped the division clean. Give me the shot and I will drop the weight." And the rest was history. But there is a reason Silva has wiped the division clean. The guy is a beast. No one has ever beaten him and better yet, no one has even took him the distance. Bisping has trashed talked and I know both men will be searching for a finish.

<div style="text-align:center;">Dana congratulated everyone for making weight for what will be an amazing card. He emphasized how stacked it was and enthused about his excitement.

He also stated that Houston talked to him earlier and due to coming in so light today will drop to LHW after this fight win or lose

Edgar said that he respected Penn for what he has done to the sport but believes he has all of the tools to beat him.

Penn said he has only tied Sherk's record for lightweight title defences but would like to beat it.

Michael Bisping told reporters that he was not in any way afraid of Silva. "I know he is great, but the truth is I am better. I lost to Dan Henderson but he is a beast. Dan would beat Silva. So I will beat him."

Anderson Silva said that Bisping cannot beat him. He said whether Henderson could beat him does not concern him now but that would be a matchup he would be interested in.</div>

Judoku1819 · March 25, 2014

<div style="text-align:center;">Post-Fight Press Conference

Dana announced that barring no injuries or unexpected events Edgar will defend the title for the first time against Takanori Gomi.

When asked about a rematch with Penn he said: "Edgar looked amazing tonight and there is no doubt in anybody's mind that he is the champion. Do I still think Penn is one of the best? Yeah, but he needs to come back win a fight or two, then we can think about a rematch."

On Silva's performance he said: "It's what we have come to expect. This guy is phenomenal. It's going to be very hard to find him an opponent. Basically right now we are either looking at either: a rematch with Leben (#3), Chael Sonnen (#5), or a rematch with Okami (#10). But Okami and Leben only have 2 straight wins, and Chael coming off a loss-win is questionable even thought the win was against Marquardt (at the time #3)."

When asked what is next for Silva: "Well obviously we gotta go back and think about it.. But when considering who is in the Middleweight division to challenge, I would say we have two options: a) if Henderson wins against Rua we do a superfight at LHW between Silva and Henderson or b) if Wanderlei wants to drop to Middleweight to challenge for the title and have a rematch (after fighting in their early PRIDE days) then we could do that too. Its a big question."

Penn said he is disappointed that he could not beat Sherk's record but Edgar fought awesome today and he deserves to be the champion. He said he would like to fight Luiz Azeredo next.

Edgar just thanked everyone for their support and the UFC for the great opportunity.

Michael Bisping stated being angry that the fight did not go his way because he knew that he could have won. "I don't want to make excuses, it wasn't my night, but I have the skill to win a title and I will."

Anderson Silva said the following when asked about a superfight with Henderson or a rematch with Wanderlei: "Yes, these interest me much so. Dana will call me and we will decide a fight."</div>

<div style="text-align:center;">Pre-Fight Press Conference</div>

<div style="text-align:center;">Dana announced that win or lose Anthony Johnson will be moving up to the Middleweight division. He said that the main event it huge because Henderson has the opportunity to prove he is without a doubt the greatest fighter in the history of the UFC.

Shogun told reporters that he did not think Dan had the ability to win. "My only loss was in my UFC debut and that was a split-decision against Forrest Griffin. I have since beat: Mark Coleman, Chuck Liddell, and Lyoto Machida. I am the best in the world and I will prove it tonight."

Dan Henderson said: "I don't have anything to prove. I have done what I wanted to do in this sport but unifying this title would be the cap to an amazing career so I will definitely be hunting for the win."</div>

<div style="text-align:center;">Post-Fight Press Conference

Dana said that despite how the main event finished an immediate rematch would make sense since Henderson had not been beaten in 25 professional fights.

He also announced that Anderson Silva would defend his belt next in a rematch against Wanderlei Silva.

Dan Henderson was unsure if he wanted an immediate rematch with Rua. "The guy (Rua) deserves the utmost respect. He deserved to win tonight, Im not sure I deserve a rematch right away. I need to talk with my camp. Maybe I take a tune-up fight to make sure I am ready."

Mauricio Rua stated being honoured to win the UFC belt from such a legend to the sport of mma. He praised the streak of Henderson and said he would be open to an immediate rematch.</div>

<div style="text-align:center;">Pre-Fight Press Conference</div>

<div style="text-align:center;">Dana announced that depending how his fight goes Josh Grispi, knowing he is a lighter WW, is considering a drop to 155. He stressed how badly Lyoto wanted to avenge his only loss (to Mauricio) by getting into title contention and winning the belt from him as well as how badly Mir wants the heavyweight title after losing it at UFC 61. "It's a night for comebacks, lets see if they can happen."

Herring stated that he needed to bounce back after back to back losses. He said he was not disappointed because they were against some of the greatest. (Lesnar and Couture.)

Mir told reporters that he missed the title and that he wanted nothing more than to regain it. "My loss to Lesnar was a disappointment. That was a chance to regain my title and I missed it. That won't happen again"

Rampage Jackson said: "I always bring the heat and chase the finish. Machida is good but he aint never faced somebody that can chase it like me. He will probably run but I will catch him."

Lyoto Machida said: "Some people do not like my style because I am patient but that is how I was taught from karate. It's effectiveness shows in my record. I have only lost once and only two of my seven UFC wins have gone the distance."</div>

Victor Valimaki said to beat Chuck Liddell would be a huge part of his career.

Post-Fight Press Conference

Dana said that this was the worst event in UFC history. He apologized for all the fights that went to a decision. "We owe Canada a stacked card. The fighters did not perform tonight."

When asked who he thought stood out: "Well, I think that is obvious. Cro-Crop looked amazing. He dominated a really tough guy in Mark Hunt. Royce and Rodrigo both looked awesome as well. Even at Royce's age he is amazing. And then Mike Pyle and Duane Ludwig put on a great fight in the prelims as well."

When asked about Chuck Liddell he said: "It's unfortunate because it is more then likely this was his last octagon appearance and most people gave him the slight edge in scoring on that fight.. But I mean, can't let the judges choose."

Hunt said he was disappointed but hopes to fight in Canada again.

Filipovic said that he believed his showing put him right back into the title pictures and that he wants a top fighter. "Pedro Rizzo would interest me."

Chuck Liddell said he had some issues during his training camp but it was not an excuse to lose. He said he needs to go home and consider his career. "I hate to leave the octagon after such a bad run of fights but I dunno what I can do from here."

Victor Valimaki stated that he believed he won that fight without a doubt. "I respect Chuck. He deserves everyones respect. He will be a Hall-of-Famer... But man, his time has run out. Good fight, but he is done."

<div style="text-align:center;">Dana said that those who doubt the main event as a draw need to remember that Jardine has the 2nd most Fight of the Night award bonuses in the UFC and he always shows up to fight. "Besides, people need to recognize that tonight is about the up and coming middleweights. Tonight is a night for them to prove themselves."

Court McGee said it would be amazing to win The Ultimate Fighter because he has always dreamed of competing in the UFC.

Keith Jardine told fans that he promises a great fight and that he knows his job is always on the line lately so he would like to make a statement.</div>
