At UFC 91 in 2008, Lesnar and Couture started their fight reversing each others’ moves. As the fight went into the second round, Lesnar started to dominate a little more. Although Couture inflicted a cut on Lesnar’s eye, it wasn’t enough for him. As the clocked inched closer towards the three-minute mark, Lesnar’s right hand floored Couture. He immediately landed a few hammer fists before the referee stopped the fight. At 3:07 seconds of the second round, Lesnar won via TKO.
