Mauricio Rua vs Forrest Griffin

Another home crowd favorite will fight after suffering from a bitter lo

st and lost his light heavyweight title Mauricio "Shogun" Rua who will face Forrest Griffin as both fighters prove and climb again the ladder to the way up. It will be an explosive fight but if Rua's performance will still be the same like what he was doing when he was fighting Jon Jones. Slow and saggy moves from Rua and also gets exhausted right away then there is no doubt that Forrest Griffin will win the match. And Forrest Griffin doesn't back down to whoever he faces inside the octagon. And Griffin loves to grind down his opponents and wear them down. Best of all Forrest Griffin does not quit easily and has a big heart. But if Rua will show determination and his skills inside the octagon then it would be a great match up. Since Forrest Griffin would love to exchanged strikes with Mauricio Rua. Both fighters have excellent stand up and striking so this will be a great match up.

Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira vs Brendan Schaub

The fight would not be completed with another home crowd fan Antonio "Minotauro" Nogueira who would face a young and promising Brendan Schaub for the Heavyweight bout. If Nogueira wants to be back on top he has to dominate this opponent and outwit him. Nogueira has to demolish his enemy in order for him to get back his confidence after suffering from bitter TKO losses to Frank Mir and Cain Velasquez. But for Brendan Schaub if he defeats Nogueira his future is bright in the UFC . And there is a big chance for him to face much more greater fighters inside the octagon.
