UFC 116: George Sotiropolous vs. Kurt Pellegrino
2021-07-06
The two lightweights will make NFL Lines for an interesting fight on July 3 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. Both are small, of course. Kurt Pellegrino, a native of New Jersey, measures in at just 5 foot 8 and 155 pounds. George Sotiropolous, a native of Australia, also weighs in at 155 pounds but owns a two-inch height advantage at 5 foot 10. The two are also similarly aged.
Sotiropolous, nicknamed “The Wizard of Oz”, has little training in wrestling but learned from some of the best MMA fighters in the field of Brazilian ju-jitsu, much to the joy of UFC betting.
Pellegrino, on the other hand, has an extensive wrestling background but is also trained in Brazilian ju-jitsu. The two are each fairly new to the world of UFC, as Pellegrino first fought for the UFC in UFC 61 but didn’t earn his first win until UFC 64, and Sotiropolous first fought for the UFC in an April 2008 Fight Night event in which he TKO’ed Roman Mitichyan.
Each of the two fighters’ overall MMA records are very solid, with Pellegrino holding a 21-4 overall record and Sotiropolous’ record a pristine 12-2.
They have never fought against each other, but the two fighters’ recent records can go a long way toward determining who should be expected to win this bout.
The thing is, they both have been very efficient in the Octagon of late. Since he beat Mitichyan in 2008, Sotiropolous has not lost a UFC bout, beating his last three opponents — George Roop, Jason Dent and Joe Stevenson.
Pellegrino has won his last four fights, dating back to September 2008. Two of those victories came by the same form of submission, a rear naked choke that has become a specialty of Pellegrino’s.
In Pellegrino’s ten-match UFC career, only three fights have gone the full final minutes — and he’s won two of them. Only one of Sotiropolous’ four bouts have gone the distance.
So what can you expect out of the fight when Sotiropolous and Pellegrino meet on July 3? Two things. One, Pellegrino will attempt to wrestle his way out of everything Sotiropolous attempts. He has proven — especially in his fight against Josh “The Dentist” Neer last year — that he can withstand damage and outlast fighters, even when his effort is questionable as it was during that fight. And two, Sotiropolous will attempt just about everything, as he typically does in his bouts. The Australian fighter is just about as well-rounded as they come in UFC, and if past fights mean anything, it’s likely he will be able to find something that neutralizes Pellegrino’s wrestling and ju-jitsu focus.
Essentially, expect the two fighters to be abnormally well-prepared to face each other, and expect Pellegrino to do his best to outsmart Sotiropolous, but Sotiropolous may just be the favorite because of his ability to pull a variety of moves out of his bag of tricks.

UFC 116: Wanderlei Silva vs. Yoshihiro Akiyama
2021-07-06
The second matchup of UFC 116 on July 3, 2010 will be an enticing battle between 33-year-old wunderkind Wanderlei Silva and 34-year-old Japanese middleweight and judo-master Yoshihiro Akiyama. UFC betting is keeping a close on these two older fighters.
Both fighters are aging, but each of them is more than capable of providing exciting action in the ring. Silva will turn 34 on the day of the fight, but here’s what else to look for in the battle between Silva and Akiyama.
Five years ago, Silva was at the top of his game, manhandling every fighter in PrideFC. But when he switched to UFC a while back, the transition didn’t go so well. Silva has now won only two of his last seven battles in the Octagon and only one of his six before he beat Michael Bisping at UFC 110.
The one win came by virtue of a first-round knockout of Keith Jardine in May 2008, but Silva lost battles to fighters including Chuck Liddell, Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, and Rich Franklin. Silva’s record is a solid 32-10-1.
As for Akiyama, he hasn’t lost in five years. His last loss came in 2005 to Jerome LeBanner, and his current record is a sparkling 13-1.
UFC president Dana White only announced this fight after Silva beat Bisping, but he will be glad he did. Silva and Akiyama will give the fans something to be excited about before Brock Lesnar vs. Shane Carwin later that night.
In February, White said that the battle would not just be looked forward to by fans but also by the actual fighters.
“Akiyama wants to fight Wanderlei very bad,” White said.
But instead of this battle being held in Japan — as was speculated to be a possibility by some media members and fans because of Akiyama’s roots and his known wishes to hold a fight there at some point — it will be held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas as a precursor to the Lesnar v. Carwin matchup.
Who can you expect to win?
That depends on what kind of style you expect to prevail. Will it be Silva’s frantic style, adjusting to a new weight class at 185 pounds? Or will it be Akiyama’s calm and calculated judo-style that prevails?
Keep in mind that Silva will be more powerful than Akiyama. Silva typically weighs more than 200 for UFC fights while Akiyama has made his living at 185. That may mean that Silva won’t be as powerful as usual, but it will also likely mean that his stamina will be longer than usual — and that is a very good thing for Silva.
If the fight ends in a knockout, look for Silva to be the winner. If it goes the distance, look for Akiyama to win, as it’s unlikely that Silva’s questionable ability to defend himself from kicks will last him throughout the fight.

Wanderlei Silva vs. Yoshihi Akiyama on UFC 116
2021-06-18
The long awaited fight between Wanderlei Silva and Yoshihiro Akiyama is all set to happen. If the recent reports are to be believed these two fighters would be in the ring facing each other for UFC 116 on July 3. Still now there was only rumors abbot the fight, but sources close to the situation has confirmed that an agreement has been signed upon to fight for UFC116 in Las Vegas.
These two fighters are pitched in the middle weight category and their fight is sure to give memorable experiences to the audiences all around the world. Wanderlei Silva (33-10-1 MMA, 3-5 UFC) is a veteran in this field but Yoshihiro Akiyama (13-1-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC) is sure to give him a tough fight. And all UFC betting are keeping a close eye on this fight.
There were rumors that the fight was fixed for UFC 115, which was to be held in Vancouver, British Columbia on June 12th. But the officials have announced that the fight is fixed for UFC 116. There is no official confirmation but the fight is expected to take place in the MGM grand Garden Arena on July 3rd. The UFC 116 has already got into the news as Brock Lesnar who is the current heavyweight champion would be also in the ring. His opponent has still not been decided but there is much anticipation on the fight. Lesnar has a huge fan following and is the favorite for the fight.
Most bookies are betting high on Silva due to his recent performances. In his last fight, UFC 110 he had a unanimous victory over his opponent Michael Bisping. This victory has given high an upper hand on his scheduled fight against Yoshihiro Akiyama. Earlier there were some doubts raised on Silva’s performance and many even believed that he was not viable for a long term. In the UFC 92, Silva lost the fight 1-3 against Quinton “Rampage” Jackson much to the surprise of UFC betting fans everywhere.
The fight between Silva and Akiyama was first scheduled for UFC 110. Then the promotion thought that Bisping would be a better option for the fight to be held in Australia and axed Akiyama. This UFC 110 fight was the 33 year old Silva’s first after undergoing a surgery for the tissue damage done to his nose and face. Silva holds a record of five year without any loss in the PRIDE organization. This record stand still even now but his former team mate, Anderson Silva, who is the current middle weight champion has the chance to break his record since he has completed four years without any loss in the ring.
Akiyama is sure to give Silva a run for his money. The fighter made his debut in UFC on July last year in UFC 100 against Alan Belcher. He won the fight after a controversial split decision but was the clear winner from the view of the audience. In an interview on last February, Akiyamo had commented that he was very sad on the cancelled fight that was fixed with Silva and expected that he would get a chance to fight Silva in the near future. The fight between Silva and Akiyama was originally scheduled for UFC 115, but it was later postponed. Then promotion did announce that the fight would be a summer event.
Silva might be carrying huge experience behind him, but would have to bring his full power out as Akiyama would surely give him some good fight. Akiyama has technically not lost a fight since March 2005. Two of his most hyped fights against Kazushi Sakuraba and Kazuo Mizaki ended in a controversial “no contest” results.

Brendan Schaub has a record of (5-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) against Chris Tuchscherer’s (18-2 MMA, 1-1 UFC). Both the fighters have proven themselves and the sources close to them say that they are preparing hard for their bout on July 3rd. The UFC 116 would take place at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in the city of Las Vegas and would be aired on the basis of pay per view.
Schaub who is widely considered as a great prospect for UFC would be out in the ring looking for his second consecutive win. His last appearance against Chase Gormely in March didn’t last for more than 47 seconds. Schaub is very impressive in the rings and has a knockout win in all of his career victories. None of his wins lasted for more than 87 seconds something UFC betting has taken notice of.
Schaub is looking for his second consecutive win following a fast 47-second win over Chase Gormley at UFC in March. Schaub has now posted knockout wins in every career victory. None of the wins has lasted more than 87 seconds. The only loss in Schaub’s record is the defeat that he suffered in the hands of Roy nelson at the finals of The Ultimate Fighter 10.
Schaub was the clear favorite to win The Ultimate Fighter season 10. However the winning streak of Schaub was brought to an end in the finals by Roy Nelson who along with the final also won a spot in the already crowded heavyweight division. Schaub soon recovered from the loss that he suffered against Nelson and reminded his fans why he is considered a great prospect by defeating Gormely in the first round of an UFC event.
Schaub who has an impressive all knockout wins in his career till now is now all set to face the massive Tuchscherer in UFC 116. Tuchscherer is best remembered for HIS involuntarily neutered loss to Gabrile Gonzanga at the UFC 102 held in last August. Tuchscherer did take a hit on his groin during the match but returned quickly and suffered loss in the hands of Gonzanga. He did put an uninspiring performance in his next match against Tim Hague in UFC 109 but was able to win the fight with a majority decision.
Both these fighters are considered good prospects for the Ultimate Fighting Championships. No one is able to clearly predict the potential winner of the fight as both these fighters are equally poised and so have equal chances to win. Let’s see who among these fighters would really move the ladder in the Heavy Weight Division.
