Former UFC Light Heavyweight Champions Quinton “Rampage” Jackson and “Shuga” Rashad Evans heated up the verbal warfare leading up to their showdown on the UFC114 fight card. Rampage apparently twittered that Evans was going to need a pillow to lay on after he KO’d him. Evans fired back saying he bought Rampage a snuggie so he would be nice and toasty laying on the mat. This bout is shaping up to be one of the “real” grudge matches in recent UFC history. Rampage vs Wanderlei Silva, along with the Koscheck vs Paul Daley stand out, but this one has the makings to be a real grudge match. Give Rampage the edge in KO power, as well as good defense against punches, Forrest Griffin was able to land kicks at will in their bout, but leg kicks are not Evans forte. Rashad has fast hands, good takedowns, and his ground and pound is lethal, neither fighter has won many bouts by way of submission.

Strikeforce Heavyweight Champion Alistair Overeem defended his title for the first time, scoring a TKO win over Brett Rogers in the first round. Overeem scored a takedown from the clinch and landed unanswered punches from top position until the ref stopped the bout.

Floyd Mayweather outpunched the much slower Shane Mosley by at least a two to one margin and cruised to an easy 12 round decision. Scores were 119-109 twice and 118-111. After the bout Mayweather said a match with Manny Pacquiao would not happen if Pac man did not agree to stringent drug testing before the bout.

With a slow weekend in MMA leading up to next weeks UFC113 rematch between Lyoto Machida and Mauricio Rua, I cant help but wonder what would happen if Mayweather vs Mosley was a MMA bout, would Mayweather use his excellent footwork to land kicks upside the head of Mosley, or would Mosley unleash his takedowns and ground and pound. One thing is for sure th bout would be entertaining, hopefully Floyd Mayweather vs Shane Mosely the boxing match is exciting

Featherweight champ Jose Aldo put on a clinic for 5 rounds against former champ Urijah Faber, and retained his Featherweight title, Aldo kicked the legs of Faber into rubber, smashed elbows into his face on the ground and outstruck the former champ by at least a 5 to 1 margin. Lightweight Champion Ben Henderson sunk in quick Guillotine on Donald Cerrone in the first round to retain his title. The first “go round” ended in a decision victory for Henderson in a bout that earned MMA fight of the year by numerous publications. Leonard Garcia vs Chan Sung Jung put on the craziest back and forth fight I have ever seen, not always pretty, these fighters put every thing into every kick,punch, and knee they threw, Garcia was awarded the victory but it could have gone either way a must see. Manvel Gamburyan KO’d former Featherweight Champion Mike Brown in the first round, he dropped him with a big right, and followed up with a barrage of rights on the ground.

UFC 113 Machida vs Shogun 2 will be helld at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec Canada on 5/8/10
