BAD MMA News — Sun, 04 Aug 2013 12:15:00 +0000

RIO DE JANEIRO – If Glover Teixeira (21-2 MMA, 4-0 UFC) plays his cards right, his next fight may earn him a shot at the UFC’s light heavyweight title. UFC exec Marshall Zelaznik revealed at Saturday night’s post-UFC 163 press conference in Rio de Janeiro that UFC President Dana White and matchmaker Joe Silva told him an impressive win by Teixeira in his upcoming bout with Ryan Bader (15-3 MMA, 8-3 UFC) could earn him a crack at the belt. “Dana and Joe have confirmed with a strong victory by Glover that he probably gets the winner of the Jon Jones fight,” Zelaznik said. Teixeira and Bader meet in the headlining bout of next month’s UFC Fight Night 28 event, which takes place Sept. 4 at Estadio Jornalista Felipe Drumond in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil

UFC 163 preview: 20 pre-fight facts for Aldo vs. Jung in Rio de Janeiro

BAD MMA News — Fri, 02 Aug 2013 05:00:00 +0000

  The UFC returns to pay-per-view for the eighth time this year on Saturday night as ”UFC 163: Aldo vs. Korean Zombie” goes down at HSBC Arena in Rio de Janeiro. There have been several injury-ridden cards in 2013, but UFC 163 takes the cake. The original main event, as well as several main- and preliminary-card bouts, were changed in the weeks leading up to the event. Fortunately, the UFC’s lone undisputed Brazilian champion made it through training camp in one piece. Featherweight kingpin Jose Aldo (22-1 MMA, 4-0 UFC) looks to extend his remarkable winning streak to 13-0 since joining the Zuffa ranks in 2008 when he puts his belt on the line for a fifth time in the UFC, this time against Chan Sung Jung (13-3 MMA, 3-0 UFC).

UFC on FOX 8 results/photos: Demetrious Johnson overpowers, submits John Moraga

BAD MMA News — Sun, 28 Jul 2013 06:20:00 +0000

SEATTLE – While speed has been his hallmark, UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson mixed in some noticeable strength in his latest title defense. The UFC’s ever-active 125-pound champ overpowered title challenger John Moraga while using frequent takedowns, suplexes, and a steady stream of ground and pound before notching the first stoppage win of his UFC title run. The bout headlined Saturday’s UFC on FOX 8 event at Seattle’s KeyArena. It aired on FOX following prelims on FX and Facebook. Moraga (12-2 MMA, 2-1 UFC), who went from a pair of low-profile wins on untelevised UFC preliminary cards to a network-televised main event, was simply outmatched once Johnson (18-2-1 MMA, 6-1-1 UFC) closed the distance. Both fighters come from wrestling backgrounds, but “Mighty Mouse” continually put Moraga on his back and clearly won rounds before securing a final-round armbar to halt the bout
