Martin Smith takes a look at UFC Fight Night and the fight between Carlos Condit and Martin Kampmann.

UFC 88 will be remembered as the PPV that separated Rashad Evans from an ordinary fighter in the light heavyweight division to a future star. Before the fight, Evans was lost in the shuffle in a division that is regarded as one of the most stacked in the whole of MMA. One knockout punch later and Evans became a star.

Of course, to see it all unfold you have to watch the DVD. Rashad Evans versus Chuck Liddell was originally scheduled for UFC 85, but an injury to Liddell forced the fight to be put back a number of months. It will never go down as a classic, but this is a fight that really shocked me. Liddell was coming off the back of a huge win over…

Martin Smith takes a look at the DVD release of UFC 87 featuring GSP vs. Fitch and Lesnar vs. Herring.

That is the beauty of the pound for pound rankings.

Is BJ Penn set to take on Kenny Florian at UFC 99 in Germany.

A fight between Georges St Pierre and BJ Penn has all the makings of a classic. It’s been a number of months in the making and finally it all comes together later tonight. It’s a fight that has been described as the biggest in UFC history and you couldn’t really argue.

The underlining fact between this feud is that if Penn wins this fight, he will be the first man to have held two titles at the same time in the UFC.

With the Welterweight title on the line, GSP has nothing to gain and everything to lose in the contest. Of course, his pride would be given a nice hefty boost if he was to beat Penn and he would…

Martin Smith says Lyoto Machida vs. Thiago Silva has all the makings of a great fight at UFC 94.

It’s an event like no other. With some world class fighters on show, we are guaranteed a very good night of MMA. I thought I’d run down my predictions and give you an insight into who I thought would walk out of UFC 94 victorious.

Georges St-Pierre vs. BJ Penn
I have to go for a St. Pierre win in this. It’s almost too close to call but I reckon St-Pierre may pull of a TKO or a slim decision victory with the judges.

That said, GSP very rarely performs fantastically when he’s got to step up to the plate.

His fight with Fitch showed that…
