MMA Preview: UFC 114
UFC 114 is taking place Saturday, May 29, 2010 at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, NV. The card features exciting fighters and great matchups.
Headlining the fight is Quinton “Rampage” Jackson against Rashad “Sugar” Evans. This is a 205lb light heavyweight bout. This fight was originally scheduled for UFC 98 and because of Jackson’s film schedule and talk of retirement, the fight was cancelled and later rescheduled. The two fighters butted heads constantly during the Ultimage Fighter show and this will be a great grudge match. Be prepared for some “black on black crime!”
Co-headlining the fight is former light heavyweight champion Forrest Griffin verses Antonio Rogerio Nogueira. This is also a light heavyweight bout. This will be Nogueuria’s first fight back since suffering a broken ankle in December. And Forrest Griffin is coming off an embarrassing loss to Anderson Silva and a a split decision win over Tito Ortiz in November. This should be an exciting fight featuring the wild fighting style of Forrest Griffin and the very technical fighting style of Antonio Rogerio Nogueira.
Also featured on the main card will be Michael Bisping vs. Dan Miller, John Hathaway vs. Diego Sanchez and Dong Hyun Kim vs. Amir Sadollah. The undercard features fights from Melvin Guillard vs. Thiago Tavares, Todd Duffee vs. Mike Russow, Chris Leben vs. Aaron Simpson, Efrain Escudero vs. Dan Lauzon, Luiz Cane vs. Cyrille Diabate, Joe Brammer vs. Aaron Riley and Jesse Forbes vs. Ryan Jensen.
This fight also coincides with the 2010 UFC Fan Expo, which takes place May 28-29 at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino. So be prepard for a great weekend at the fan expo followed by explosive fights and MMA betting at UFC 114.
