Ellenberger vs. Kampmann to Headline TUF Live Finale

UFC 139 Martin Kampmann

It doesn’t take a master’s degree for MMA fans to have already put two and two together in reference to the UFC welterweight division as of late. Nick Diaz has his appeal process pending, and still hasn’t stated as to whether or not he’s going to keep fighting and the new interim champ Carlos Condit has decided to wait out Georges St-Pierre’s injury rehab. Which leaves us with the obvious conclusion that Jake Ellenberger and Martin Kampmann need to fight.

The UFC’s Welterweight Division Just Got Interesting

The talk amongst MMA fans, both hardcore and casual alike, not too long ago was of wanting to see current UFC Welterweight Champion move up to 185 and take on Anderson Silva in a Super-fight that any MMA fan would love to see.

Would two more rounds have made a Difference at UFC on Fuel TV: Sanchez vs. Ellenberger

The main event for the UFC on Fuel TV 1 event was awesome, and one that left MMA fans wanting more. Jake Ellenberger showed signs of absolute brilliance in the first two rounds of his fight against Diego Sanchez on Wednesday night, but it wasn’t until the last half of the 3rd round that the contest got very interesting. Diego Sanchez showed the heart of a lion, and came back to dominate the last round of a fight that lesser competitors would have given up, had they been put in as precarious of positions that Sanchez was put in during the first two rounds, or to accept the damage sustained by Ellenberger’s razor sharp strikes, and still choose to move forward attempting victory.
