UFC 200: Nunes caps historic card with submission of Tate

A historic card packed wall-to-wall with exciting fights, UFC 200 ended with a stunning change of titles in the women's bantamweight division. Amanda Nunes dominated Miesha Tate, on the heels of an impressive return to the Octagon from Brock Lesnar.

UFC 200 was stacked with impressive comebacks, as both Cain Velasquez and Jose Aldo returned to their winning ways with two vintage performances. After a tumultuous week, Daniel Cormier was able to hold off arguably the greatest fighter pound-for-pound of all time in Anderson Silva and escape with a victory.

Brock Lesnar def. Mark Hunt via unanimous decision

Brock Lesnar bullied Mark Hunt on the ground for most of the bout to gain a unanimous victory in his first UFC fight since 2011. His return to the Octagon was impressive as he scored four takedowns throughout the match, keeping Hunt's notorious knockout power at bay. Lesnar saluted those in uniform and then called for racial unity following his win.

Daniel Cormier def. Anderson Silva via unanimous decision

Daniel Cormier used his superior wrestling technique and size to control Anderson Silva on the ground for three rounds to take a unanimous victory. Silva took his shots when he could, hurting Cormier late in the third round with a kick to the body, but ultimately it wasn't enough. Silva, who took the fight on two days notice, tried to put on a show for the fans, but Cormier said he did what he had to do to keep the dangerous "Spider" neutralized.

Jose Aldo def. Frankie Edgar via unanimous decision

In one of the best bounce-back performances in UFC history, Jose Aldo downed Frankie Edgar with a vintage effort to regain the (interim) featherweight title. Edgar was stymied by Aldo's takedown defense throughout and "Junior" was able to persistently tag his opponent to win three or four of the five rounds. Aldo made it known he expects a rematch with Conor McGregor directly following the win.

Cain Velasquez def. Travis Browne via 1st-round TKO

After the bout, Velasquez pleaded to fight the "best guys" and a title shot could be on the horizon if he's able to stay healthy.

Kelvin Gastelum def. Johny Hendricks via unanimous decision

Kelvin Gastelum got out to a hot start and continued pushing forward against a fading Johny Hendricks - who looked very much like a fighter who struggled mightily to make weight (ultimately missing by a quarter pound) - but couldn't find a way to finish the bout. Nonetheless, it was enough for the 24-year old to earn the win via unanimous decision and push his record to 12-2.

T.J. Dillashaw def. Raphael Assuncao via unanimous decision

An energetic T.J. Dillashaw used an impressive second round to earn a unanimous decision over Raphael Assuncao. Dillashaw out-struck Assuncao 79-42 and left no doubt in the minds of UFC fans that he deserves a rematch with Dominick Cruz for the bantamweight title as soon as possible.

Sage Northcutt def. Enrique Marin via unanimous decision

Sage Northcutt escaped two dangerous submission attempts from Enrique Marin in the second round to get a unanimous decision in a difficult matchup for the young star.
