FanHouse Cain Velasquez

UFC light heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida walked away with $200,000 and challenger Mauricio "Shogun" Rua with $155,000 for main eventing this past Saturday's UFC 104, according to salaries disclosed to FanHouse Tuesday by the California athletic commission.

Machida won a unanimous decision over Rua to retain his belt, but even if he had lost the controversial five-round showdown, he would have still earned the same amount as there was no win bonus attached to his bout agreement.

LOS ANGELES -- The UFC 104 post-fight press conference was buzzing after the controversial main event between Lyoto Machida and Shogun Rua.

Below is a highlight video package of the conference, which featured comments from Machida, Rua, Dana White, Cain Velasquez, Joe Stevenson and Anthony Johnson.

LOS ANGELES -- Whether or not you believe the Cain Velasquez-Ben Rothwell UFC 104 fight was finished early on Saturday night, it would be difficult to deny the fact that Velasquez dominated "Big Ben" for the entire fight.

Velasquez also talked about whether or not he believed the fight was stopped early and his thoughts on his performances. Check out the video below.
