Eddie Mercado & Dayne Fox are here this weekend to breakdown the ‘UFC VEGAS 18’ fight night event. The guys will have hot takes, possible next fights, as well as reactions to the overall events. Sign up for #ESPN+ and watch #UFCVEGAS18: #OVEREEMvsVOLKOV — FEB 6th., 2021 at: http://go.web.plus.espn.com/c/482924/566982/9070?sharedid=BloodyElbow #UFCAPEX This Saturday’s, Feb 6th, Fight Night event, broadcast from the APEX Fight Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, showcased a Heavyweight tilt between Alistair ‘The Demolition Man’ Overeem & Alexander ‘Drago’ Volkov. Overeem ranked #5 in the division with a 47-18 record and Volkov at #6 with a 32-8 record hadn’t fought one another prior to tonight. In our co-main event, we had fight veteran, #3 ranked, Frankie ‘The Answer’ Edgar and up-and-comer, #5 ranked, Cory ‘The Sandman’ Sandhagen, which was anticipated to be a wicked good bout, end in a mere 28 seconds into Round 1, thanks to a flying knee from The Sandman, that is a strong contender for KOTY. Also on the card, we had an exciting women’s Flyweight upset that occured between the Liverpool sensation, Ms. Molly ‘Meatball’ McCann and Brazilian brawler Lara Procópio. Both ladies were coming at this off a loss; Molly having been defeated by Talia Santos back in July, 2020, while Lara was handed her defeat from Karol Rosa all the way back in late August of 2019... that’s some ring rust time there, but it didn’t affect her ability to take the ‘W’ tonight. Our featured prelim was between lightweights Mike Rodriguez and Danilo Marques, ending in a sub by the odds favored Danilo; which was all preceded by a fully-packed undercard, which started off the event with a 26-second knock out in our opening prelim between Ode Osbourne and Jerome Rivera. Join us to discuss all the action... Rounding things out, bonuses for putting forth POTN efforts went to Alexander Volkov & Corey Sandhagen, while FOTN honors went to Beniel Dariush vs. Carlos Diego Ferreira. Overall, the now twelve-bout card saw two instantaneous finishes in Rd 1, one sub, a total of 4 exciting KO/TKOs (including the Main & Co-Main), with a whopping seven decisions-1 split... what a night of fights we have to discuss with you!

Welcome to the 6th Round Retro Post-Fight Show. This is the show that digs into the archives and gives you a comprehensive review of classic MMA events, that span as far back as UFC 1. Join Eddie Mercado & Victor Rodriguez as they relive the UFC 118: ‘Edgar vs. Penn 2’ PPV (pay-per-view) event this week, complete with results, analysis, and of course a few laughs. As mentioned, this week we feature the August 28th., 2010, UFC 118: ‘Frankie ‘The Answer’ Edgar vs. BJ ‘The Prodigy’ Penn’ PPV event, (last episode we covered SUPERBRAWL 41: ICON ‘Lawler vs. Vitale’). This event we’re covering today was a jam-packed ten-bout card, half of which of which were exciting submissions, and the other half all went to Decision. The show went down from the TD Garden in Boston, Mass. The main event that night showcased a battle for the UFC Lightweight Championship with MMA icons Frankie Edgar and BJ Penn battling it out for the title that night, going the entire five rounds and handing it over to the judges scorecards. Edgar was able to secure the ‘W’ via Unanimous Decision to the talented BJ Penn. Lawler had performed fairly well in his UFC run prior to this bout, having won six of his seven UFC bouts at this point in his fledgling career, plus a ‘TUF 10 Finale’ win, and wins in Reality Fighting, Ring of Combat and Sportfighting, as well. ‘The Prodigy’ was entering the octagon after a brief four-month break, which was in-between their first bout at ‘UFC 112: Invincible’, where #Edgar walked away with the ‘W’ via Unanimous Decision as well. In the co-main event, we watched Randy ‘The Natural’ Couture quickly submit boxing great, James ‘Lights Out’ Toney, in his UFC debut with a Round 1 arm-triangle choke. To refresh your memory, at this point #Couture had a 15-5 fight record in the UFC, his five losses to date included names such as Matt Hughes, twice to GSP, Lyoto Machida, and way back in 2002 a Majority Decision loss to Jens Pulver. Toney has never fought in the UFC again, although he achieved so many boxing accomplishments, a career in MMA was unnecessary at that point in his legendary combat sports career. The rest of the card was stellar, with the five main card bouts shown on the PPV broadcast & the prelims available via SPIKE TV, including names we now know well, such as: Demian Maia, Gray Maynard, Kenny Florian, Nate Diaz, Joe Lauzon, Nik Lentz, and Dan Miller. The venue consisted of Mike Goldberg & Joe Rogan at the announcers table, Bruce Buffer as the Ring Announcer and brought in a live gate of $2,800,000 with 14,168 in attendance, while 535,000 tuned in via the PPV and 1.1M viewers caught the prelims on Spike TV. Let’s check it out... Let’s take a look at the card, complete with fight results: MAIN CARD PPV: 10. MAIN EVENT UFC Lightweight Championship: Frankie Edgar DEF. BJ Penn via DEC, unanimous / 5 rounds 9. Co-Main: Randy Couture DEF. James Toney via SUB-Arm-Triangle Choke at 3:19 of Rd 1 - 265 lbs 8. Demian Maia DEF. Mario Miranda via DEC-Unanimous - 185 lbs 7.

Sign up for ESPN+ and watch UFC VEGAS 7: ‘MUNHOZ VS. EDGAR’ - #UFCAPEX — August 22nd., 2020 at: http://go.web.plus.espn.com/c/482924/566982/9070?sharedid=BloodyElbow This Saturday’s, August 22nd., Fight Night event, broadcast from the APEX Fight Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, showcased a bantamweight bout between Pedro ‘The Young Punisher’ Munhoz and Frankie ‘The Answer’ Edgar. Our co-main event was supposed to feature OSP vs. Gamzatov, but Gamzatov withdrew, so our co-main instead would feature OSP vs. Alonzo Menifield, but then OSP tested positive for COVID-19 and we ended up with a brief co-main featuring light heavyweight ‘Slow’ Mike Rodriguez thrashing Marcin Prachnio to defeat in just over two minutes. We ended up with a rapid submission from Joe Solecki over Austin Hubbard, a truly wicked 2:24 battle in the main card opener between Daniel Rodriguez and Dwight Grant, and preceding that we had a brutal prelim bout for the debut of Muay Thai specialist Jordan ‘The Beverly Hills Ninja’ Wright, who had a KO/TKO result via a Doctor’s Stoppage due to a cut on Ike Villanueva at 1:31 of Rd 1, and if you tuned in earlier, we also had an exciting featured prelim decision bout between Amanda Lemos and Mizuki Inoue. Overall, the card was far better than expected. Rounding things out, we were treated to POTN efforts put forth by Trevin Jones and Shana Dobson, and FOTN honors went to Edgar vs. Munhoz. Overall, the now dwindled down nine bout card saw four finishes in Round 1, with a total of five KO/TKOs, one sweet submission and three decisions; the main card ending in a split... what a fun night of fights we have to discuss with you!
