From
time to time, I’ll try to provide a quick rundown and primer on upcoming MMA
events. Basically let you know who these
jerks are, what they do, if there’s anything particularly hilarious that’s
happened to them in a fight.
This Saturday, the UFC is back on Fox for a night of free fights with an interesting stipulation for the two co-main events. Whoever wins in the more impressive fashion will be the next number one contender to the Light Heavyweight title, taking on the winner of Jon Jones and Dan Henderson (Please, please, please win Dan!).
UNDER CARD
"Useless" Ulysses Gomez vs. John Moraga
- Gomez's Style - Brazilian jiu-jitsu
- Moraga's Style - Wrestling
- What will probably happen? I have no idea! I don't know either fighter, but I've heard of Gomez, so I'll say he gets the win by submission.
Manvel "Anvil" Gamburyan vs. Michihiro Omigawa
- Gamburyan's Style - Judo
- Omigawa's Style - Judo
- What will happen? I'm going to guess/hope Omigawa takes it, mainly because I once read a description of him as being a cross between Manny Pacquiao and a Carebear.
Phil De Fries vs. Oli Thompson
- De Fries' Style - Brazilian jiu-jitsu
- Thompson's Style - World's Strongest Man
- What will happen? De Fries will submit Thompson in a display of laughable English offensive wrestling against nonexistent English defensive wrestling.
Josh "Fluke" Grispi vs. Rani Yahya
- Grispi's Style - Submissions
- Yahya's Style - Brazilian jiu-jitsu
- What should happen? Yahya will submit Grispi
Phil "Mr. Wonderful" Davis vs. Wagner "Caldeirao" Prado
- Davis' Style - Wrestling
- Prado's Style - Muay Thai kickboxing
- What should happen? Davis will submit Prado, hopefully with another Mr. Wonderful
Cole "Magrinho" Miller vs. Nam Phan
- Miller's Style - Brazilian jiu-jitsu
- Phan's Style - Boxing
- What should happen? Miller with a submission victory.
