Independent MMA Link Club 3-18-13: XFC & The Return of TFC
The biggest thing in MMA this past week was the build up and eventual fight between UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre and Nick Diaz. The former Strikeforce champion did everything he could to get into the head of the champ but when it was all said and done, St-Pierre retained his UFC welterweight Championship belt at UFC 158 via unanimous decision.
Also this past week XFC held their open tryouts and eventually signed California’s Jeremiah Labiano to a contract. The week was filled with MMA news, including fight announcements, event announcements and much more. Below you’ll find some links to articles from this past week, check them out and get yourself caught up on anything you might have missing this past week.
