The UFC® returns to Fox this Saturday night with a primetime matchup of two light heavyweight title contenders live from the United Center in Chicago, IL. Team BSN® star Phil “Mr. Wonderful” Davis will put his 9-0 professional record on the line against former champion Rashad Evans in what promises to be a thrilling main event.
Both fighters are recently recovered from injuries suffered during training and should be healthy and focused for this fight, which will likely determine the next light heavyweight title challenger. Phil will be looking to work his vaunted ground game and utilize his superior size and strength to control the action on the mat. Evans is a skilled wrestler in his own right, but his smaller size means that a grappling match with Davis is not to his advantage. Where Evans does have a decided advantage is in his highly technical striking, so Phil will definitely want to avoid standing and trading with Evans for any extended period. This makes for a compelling clash of styles and a fight that would seem to have a pretty good chance of going the full five rounds.
This will be the most important fight of Phil’s career, and likely his toughest challenge as well. A win here should put a shot at the belt within reach, but a loss could be devastating in the ultra-competitive 205-lb division. Tune in Saturday at 10 PM EST on Fox and watch all the action unfold!
