Koscheck is one tough cookie and a tremendous boxer, but Big Rigg fought off mono to win the fight by split decision, per Sherdog. I've never had mono, but I can only imagine that fighting a world class fighter while inflicted with it is fairly tough.
My camp is officially over. Just finished my last practice. Many thanks to my team! In a separate interview with Sherdog , Hendricks discussed his signature beard and why it won't be a presence much longer. He said:. The Hitman has been on the welterweight scene longer than Hendricks, and he feels as though this is his time.
He makes that abundantly clear in the interview below:. There is no doubting Kampmann's striking and submission ability. Just as impressive as Kampmann's offense is his overall toughness. This dude has no quit in him, and he will battle tooth and nail to come out with a victory.
The winner of this fight deserves to fight for the welterweight title, no matter who has it. Carmont looks the part of a stud MMA fighter, but the beginning of his career rendered mixed results. He picked up seven defeats in his first 18 bouts, but has recently won seven in a row. That includes his last three fights in the UFC. His opponent is a grimy, tough fighter, hence the nickname Filthy. Need more proof, his UFC bio states:. His post-fight interview was awesome.
I thought Michael Cole or Jerry Lawler were going to take over the interview, or Chris Jericho might come in for the ambush as he cut his promo. Love it or hate it, the sport needs personalities like this. St-Pierre had been on the shelf since an April win over Jake Shields.
Knee surgery nearly a year ago led to a long recovery. But if there was any cage rust for the champ, it wasn't evident -- save for one moment where Condit had him in trouble. St-Pierre landed his first takedown against Condit seconds into the fight, and he would go on to land six more. Toward the end of the first frame, St-Pierre landed a big left elbow on the ground that cut Condit above his right eye -- and that blood would be across his face for the next 20 minutes.
In the third, though, Condit landed a left kick to St-Pierre's head, stunning the champ and dropping him to the canvas. Condit moved in quickly, hoping to turn the tide and get a finish. With St-Pierre's head immediately swelling, Condit went to work. But St-Pierre managed to not only survive but get back to his feet -- and he started stalking his opponent down right away. I never saw the kick.
