The UFC made a return to Sao Paulo in Brazil last night for what was deemed a ‘Rubber Match’ between Vitor Belfort and Dan Henderson, this time set at Middleweight (185 lbs). It was, as expected though, another win for Vitor Belfort and within the two-minute mark via a well executed head kick which set up the final array of punches to call time on the trilogy.

It appears ever since that is was announced a few hours ago that Anthony ‘Rumble’ Johnson will be facing Jimi Manuwa next on UFC 191, they have taken to good old twitter for a nice, funny exchange of words.
Have a read below:
Read and enjoy. I know I did. 🙂
Hope you enjoyed them as much as I did 🙂
UFC 191 comes from Las Vegas on September 5th.
UFC Countdown takes you inside the training camps and lives of the stars of UFC 190. Undefeated women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey readily prepares to venture into hostile territory to defend her title against undefeated Bethe Correia.
The UFC came to Chicago for round two; in the main event it was T.J. Dillashaw who faced Renan Barao for the 2nd time to see if he could reclaim what was once his, the championship Belt.
But it was again T.J.Dillashaw who, kept onto his belt and standing firm to the naysayers that he won the belt by a fluke last time. Diĺlashaw held onto the championship belt by defending it from Renan Barao and stopping him in the Fourth Round via TKO, after being in complete control throughout the first three rounds.
In the co-main event we saw Miesha Tate take a unanimous decision over Jessica Eye, for which she will now face the winner of Ronda Rousey Vs. Bethe Corriea who settle their ‘beef’ on August 1st. I’m sure we will all get to see a Rousey vs Tate Trilogy very soon.
Here is the rest of the official results:
