UFC Fight Night 37 Results: Silva's Grappling Leads To A Decision Win

bjpenndotcom - March 8, 2014

Clauido (pictured) came out extremely aggressive. He threw out wild strikes and looked to drag the fight to the ground as soon as possible. Brad Scott did a good job of keeping the fight on the feet, where his more technical striking proved troublesome for Silva, but still managed to get taken down a few times. By the end of the second round Silva seemed gassed. The fight was stopped twice because of eye pokes, both suffered by Scott. After the second stoppage (in the third round), Silva managed to get to Scott’s back. Eventually he lost the position, but ended up on top in half guard. Silva finished the fight in top position on the ground.

Alexander Gustafsson Predicts Early Finish Tonight

BJPENN.COM News - March 8, 2014

“I’m prepared for the best Jimi Manuwa. Whatever he throws at me on Saturday night, I’m going to have an answer for it. It’s going to be a great fight, a great fight for the fans. He’s a very dangerous guy, first of all. He’s very explosive with very good striking techniques. He’s a hard hitter with heavy hands and kicks. Of course he’s very dangerous on his feet. He has one gear. He doesn’t change. He’ll always go hard whatever he throws. He’s a very dangerous guy, and he’s unbeaten. He has a lot of self-confidence coming into this fight. He’s hungry, so I have to be on my toes.”

Melvin Guillard: 'I Will Be UFC Champion'

BJPENN.COM News - March 7, 2014

“People don’t realize how hard it is not only to fight in the UFC but stay in the UFC. I’ve been in the UFC for nine years straight. I haven’t been cut or kicked to another promotion and I’m proud of that. Will I get a title shot? Yes. Will I be champion? Yes. I haven’t given up on myself. [UFC champion] Anthony Pettis is a good fighter, but I feel like I’m bigger, stronger and faster. I can beat anybody in my weight class. I have to go make a statement against Michael Johnson and then I see myself fighting for the title within two fights.”

Aldo Thinks Barao Needs To Play It Safer In Title Defenses, Expects A 10 Year Title Reign For Renan

BJPENN.COM News - March 7, 2014

“The champion has a lot to lose. The challenger can give everything of himself, he has nothing to lose. If he wins, he will be beating the champion. In the future, I think Renan will think one more time before doing some strikes. There’s a part of him that is more cautious and we are always talking to him about how best to win his fights. I think Renan will be the champion for eight or ten years. He is going to rule his division for a lot of time. He is a young guy and he knows he can’t be in his comfort zone.” In a recent interview with the Brazilian Media, UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo, talked about his Nova Uniao teammate, Renan Barao (pictured).
