Rory MacDonald/Jake Ellenberger slated for UFC on FOX 8

If the UFC / Zuffa have any sense they'll hand CC a gimme next time out, not in the guys nature I know but its in the interest of maintenance.

 

I have to 2nd the tone of this post, specifically on Jake Ellenberger, a fighters body language tells a story! Ellenberger doesn't care who is opposite him in that cage, he's very confident of beating anybody, he's in great shape, he's active and he has the tools.

I'm fascinated to see how Rory handle's Ellenberger, will this be the night the kid announces he is going on to replace GSP or will he be overwhelmed by a better professional fighter than him at this stage (Fitch Silva). I literally cannot wait for this one.

 

Seems unconfident against Hieron

 

Don't really care for this match, tbh.

 

I think he was being extra cautious in that fight because it was extremely important that he won. If he lost that fight he would've been dropped far down the ladder. He came back strong against Marquart though. :deal
