GOIANIA, Brazil - Brazilian slugger Vitor Belfort became the first man to ever knock out Dan Henderson, and he may have earned himself a shot at the UFCs light heavyweight title in the process. Brian McCann Braves Jersey . Belfort (24-10) needed just 77 seconds to down Henderson in the headlining bout of Saturdays "UFC Fight Night: Belfort vs. Henderson" event at Goiania Arena in Goiania, Brazil. The fight served as a rematch of the pairs 2006 meeting, which Henderson won by decision. Belfort opened patiently, staying at distance to avoid Hendersons powerful right hand. Henderson was equally calm to start, but when he did finally load up on a strike, Belfort slipped the effort and countered with a left uppercut that sent his opponent crashing to the floor. To his credit, Henderson climbed back to his feet, but Belfort was there to deliver a crushing high kick that again sent his opponent to the floor, where referee Dan Miragliotta stepped in to call off the fight. Rather than take his time on the mic to call for a title shot, Belfort chose instead to thank his support system. "Without the support of everyone in my camp, the Blackzilians, and without the support of my wife and kids, I have to thank them," Belfort said. Still, UFC President Dana White said in the build-up to the fight an impressive win would likely mean a shot at the winner of Decembers middleweight title fight between champ Chris Weidman and former title holder Anderson Silva. Freddie Freeman Jersey . Orlando is to begin play in the MLS for the 2015 season. Kaka, who currently plays with AC Milan, is expected to be loaned out to his home club Sao Paulo for the upcoming season before joining Orlando for next season. Ozzie Albies Jersey . Yahoo! Sports columnist Marc Spears says that the Boogie Smooth album may have been an elaborate April Fools prank.SAN DIEGO - Clayton Kershaw is considered the top pitcher in baseball, with three Cy Young Awards in four years for the Los Angeles Dodgers, an NL Most Valuable Player award and a $215 million, seven-year contract.Max Scherzer may be seeking an even bigger deal as his talks on the free-agent market move forward.Im not sure Kershaw is relevant, agent Scott Boras said Wednesday at the winter meetings, because hes not a free agent.Jon Lester became the first top-level, free-agent starting pitcher to reach an agreement this off-season, a $155 million, six-year deal with the Chicago Cubs that came together late Tuesday night and still must be finalized.Scherzer turned down an offer from Detroit last March that would have paid $144 million from 2015-20. Kershaw has the largest contract for a pitcher in total dollars and has the sports highest average salary at $30.7 million.The prominent pitchers that have signed, (Justin) Verlander or (Felix) Hernandez or Kershaw, were not free-agent players, Boras said. And certainly if you put a performance like Kershaw into a free-agent market, youre going to get a much, much different calibration of value.Scherzers negotiations figure to stretch on for weeks or even into next year.But other players were on the move or close to switching teams.The Dodgers acquired second baseman Howie Kendrick from the Los Angeles Angels and were working to obtain shortstop Jimmy Rollins from the Phillies in a remake of their middle infield.In a flurry of moves late Wednesday, the Dodgers dealt All-Star second baseman Dee Gordon, right-hander Dan Haren, infielder Miguel Rojas and a player to be named or cash to the Miami Marlins as part of a seven-player trade for left-hander Andrew Heaney, right-hander Chris Hatcher, infielder Kike Hernandez and catcher Austin Barnes.The Dodgers then sent Heaney, considered one of baseballs top pitching prospects, to the Angels for Kendrick.Philadelphia started retooling by shipping left-handed reliever Antonio Bastardo to Pittsburgh for minor league lefty Joely Rodriguez. Boston was discussing a deal to obtain left-hander Wade Miley from Arizona.Among free agents, Houston agreed to an $18.5 million, three-year contract with Luke Gregerson and a $12.5 million, two-year deal with Pat Neshek, people familiar with the negotiations said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the deals with the right-handed relievers were subject to physicals. Tom Glavine Jersey. And the Chicago White Sox finalized a $46 million, four-year contract with closer David Robertson after signing first baseman Adam LaRoche and reliever Zach Duke, and acquiring pitcher Jeff Samardzija in a trade with Oakland.I love what Rick Hahn has been doing this off-season, Robertson said of Chicagos general manager. I feel like hes building a good squad thats really going to be a competitor next year, and Im hoping that we end up back in the playoffs.Lesters deal could open up the marketplace for other free agents and for top pitchers who may be available in trades, such as Philadelphias Cole Hamels, Detroits David Price, Cincinnatis Johnny Cueto and Washingtons Jordan Zimmermann.That pitching market is going to move fast, New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said.Lester helped the Red Sox win World Series titles in 2007 and 13. Boston made a $70 million, four-year offer during spring training, and after the Red Sox couldnt reach an agreement on a new deal in July, they traded him to Oakland. Boston fell about $20 million short with its offer this week.I think we would have liked to have had more chance for dialogue prior to the season, Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington said. Why that didnt happen, maybe theres more than one reason. I think we can certainly learn from the process.San Francisco and the Los Angeles Dodgers also had sought the left-hander.I think it raises the bar on all pitching, New York Mets general manager Sandy Alderson said. Heretofore, theres been a lot of conversation about how valuable offence could be and, of course, we got (Giancarlo) Stanton, we got the big $300 million-plus contract. But right behind that, the next-highest is Lester. So I think it re-establishes the notion that pitching is still at a premium and highly desirable and costly.While some teams were making progress toward the moves they wanted, others preferred to be patient. Spring training is more than two months away.Were in San Diego. Ill use a surfing analogy, Cashman said. If we see the right wave, well get on the board and ride it. But otherwise, well just sit and wait for the next wave to come.___AP Sports Writer Howie Rumberg contributed to this report. Wholeslae Jerseys NFL Jerseys Cheap Wholesale NBA Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys Cheap MLB Jerseys Wholesale Soccer JerseysCheap College Jerseys Cheap Football Jerseys Cheap Basketball Jerseys Cheap Baseball Jerseys ' ' '
