Ämne: Steve Cantwell vs. Vladimir Matyushenko @ UFC 108

Former WEC light heavyweight champion Steve Cantwell will look to rebound from back-to-back losses when he takes on veteran Vladimir Matyushenko on the preliminary card of UFC 108 on January 2 in Las Vegas.

Cantwell (7-3) won four-straight after suffering his first career loss to Brian Stann in 2007, including winning the WEC title with a first-round TKO in a rematch with Stann as well as earning “Submission of the Night” honors by submitting Razak Al-Hassan in his UFC debut. However, “The Robot” would next suffer a loss to Luiz Cane in April and drop a rubber match to Stann in September.

Matyushenko (23-4), an IFL and UFC veteran, returned to the Octagon in September, picking up a unanimous decision victory over Igor Pokrajac at UFC 103, “The Janitor’s” second-straight win and 10th in 11 bouts since leaving the UFC in 2003.

UFC 108 is headlined by light heavyweight contenders Rashad Evans and Thiago Silva, with the pay-per-view event’s main card also featuring Carlos Condit vs. Paul Daley, Junior Dos Santos vs. Gilbert Yvel, Tyson Griffin vs. Jim Miller, and Joe Lauzon vs. Sam Stout.

Vladimir Matyushenko gammal favorit, hoppas han håller

Cantwell lär inte ha så mycket att säga till om. Matyushenko kommer att sopa mattan med honom (hihi).
