Three spectacular matches on the UFC on FOX2


Tickets are now fully open and it is clear that the American promotion this time goes with three aces. Chael Sonnen and Mark Munoz will fight for the position of the first challenger in the light heavyweight, Michael Bisping and Demian Maia will win more evocative place and we can expect spectacular duel Rashad Evans and Phil Davis, who should also determine the future challengers in the light heavyweight division.More than an hour lasted a press conference in Chicago on the occasion of the second UFC appearance on a FOX national television.

Dana White is thrilled with how they stacked cubes.


- "Everything is great. Munoz and Sonnen will determine who will fight against Anderson Silva. The winner of that match will go to the winner of the match Maia vs Bisping, "explained White.


Mark Munoz has no problem with matches against a friend and former sparring partner.


- "I trained with Anderson, but he has the belt now. I fight with Chael, and he is my friend. I have to do in to ger opportunity for the belt. There is no great story, it's just about sport. It's nothing personal, but a job. I want to be world champion, "said Munoz, and threw the glove.


Maia had his chance already, but he didn't use it. Now he chases a second chance.


- "Lately I trained a lot of boxing. I brought a Cuban in Brasil who helps me. I'm trying to also get back to my BJJ steps. I reached a level of MMA, and now it's time to go back a little grappling and BJJ-in. This is what people expect from me. They want submissions, "said Maia.


Sonnen, as expected, was in his element.


- "I think Munoz is the best wrestler in the competition. Surely the most decorated. I'm not a wrestler, I'm a gangster from Oregon. I say to FOX: Not at all! For years, they laud for emitting 'American Idol', but now they actually have one. "


Although he fights against Davis, Rashad Evans mind is directed to some other fighters.


- "I would like to fight Machida in order to avenge the defeat, but Jon Jones ... it's a different story. With him personally. I want to grab him and pull apart every time he opens his mouth, "concluded Evans.


UFC on FOX 2 event will be held on 29 January next year. Unlike the first"specials" on FOX, this show will last even 2 hours!
