Parke Controls Tuck
TUF Smashes champion Norman Parke put on a solid performance tonight against Jon Tuck. Parke seized control of the fight with superior counter striking and cardio. Parke has now won nine straight fights and should see a bump in competition for his next fight.
Musoke Taps Sakara in Wild Bout
Nico Musoke made a memorable UFC debut tonight by defeating Alessio Sakara tonight in Manchester. The Swede and the Italian battled it out in a wild bout until Musoke pounced on arm bar after an elbow from Sakara. The submission victory for Musoke keeps him undefeated in his last seven outings, while Sakara has now dropped four straight fights in the Octagon.
Lineker Batters Harris
John Lineker was in a must-win situation tonight in Manchester after missing weight for the second straight time and his third in five UFC fights. The Brazilian certainly stepped up big tonight with a brutal KO of hometown fighter Phil Harris. Lineker would drop Harris twice in the round before putting him down for a final time due to a body shot. Lineker has now won four-straight in the Octagon and would be an immediate title contender if he could control his weight.
