It is good to be back! I sincerely apologize for the extended hiatus, but my personal schedule has been overwhelming lately. (Feel free to apply to write for us!)

The UFC returns to Brazil this weekend for a thirteen-bout fight card, headlined by a ranked Heavyweight stylistic clash between Jailton Almeida and Derrick Lewis. In the co-main, undefeated Welterweight Gabriel Bonfim puts his rcord on the line opposite Nicolas Dalby, while Brazilian prospects like Caio Borralho and Vitor Petrino look to earn statement wins.
