Rashad Evans managed to hold on and survive a tough fight with Thiago Silva Saturday night at UFC 108, winning by unanimous decision despite nearly being knocked out in the third round.

Evans then went on to take a verbal shot at his rival Rampage Jackson, who backed out of a scheduled fight with Evans to take a role in the upcoming A-Team movie. Evans said he wants to fight Rampage just as soon as Rampage is ready to get back into the Octagon.

Paul Daley

Paul Daley showed on Saturday night why he might be the hardest puncher in MMA's welterweight division, knocking out Dustin Hazelett with a brutal left hook and another hard punch on the ground to win their fight at UFC 108.

Hazelett opened the fight with a somersault-style front roll, trying to catch Daley off guard, but Daley saw it coming and backed away. After that Hazelett stayed cautious and attempted to avoid Daley's punching power, but all it took was one punch: Daley landed a brutal left hook and then pounced and landed another couple of punches on the ground before referee Herb Dean saved the unconscious Hazelett from further damage.

Michael David Smithby Michael David Smith

Filed under: UFC, News



Sam Stout defeated Joe Lauzon in a thrilling, back-and-forth unanimous decision at UFC 108, weathering an early storm and using his superior kickboxing skills for a come-from-behind win.

The fight went to the ground quickly, which was just where Lauzon wanted it, and although Stout rolled out of a kimura attempt and got to his feet, he had a nasty cut over his left eye to show for it. But once Stout got back to his feet he made an impressive comeback, landing punches and kicks and even won the first round.
