Glover Teixeira vs. Rashad Evans

R1:
Teixeira marches out in a crouched stance and closes distance, firing a
straight right down the middle. Running out of room, Evans
counter-clinches to stop Teixeira\’s forward momentum, then shoves him
away to reset in the center. Teixeira catches him with a left on his way
into a clinch and Evans glances with a counter before separating. Evans
sits down on a heavy right cross and it barely misses.

With an
unsettling and almost robotic focus, Teixeira continues to walk Evans
down until he follows a right cross with a depth charge of a left hook,
and it folds Evans up on the canvas neatly.

face. More smothering top control from Ferreira before two more
methodical volleys of left forearms. There\’s a lot of blood but it\’s

spaced-out bursts rather than going berserk ala round one. Outside low
kick from Ferreira. Bamgbose, who\’s only been offering wild kicks from
the fringe, gets taken down from the waist lock briefly but he fights
back to his feet. Ferreira shoots a double on another kick attempt, this

another for grabbing the fence and, sensibly, he grips the fence with
his hand even more blatantly and obviously. Herb Dean slaps his fingers
off the cage but Bamgbose re-secures his grip until he\’s perpendicular
with the fence in full guard. Bamgbose finally manages to escape back to
his feet but the bell sounds. 10-9 Ferreira. I have it 29-27 Ferreira.

downstairs as Akhmedov is exiting the clinch. Akhmedov lands a

Akhmedov. Smelling blood, dos Santos launches a frenzied outburst of
violence, replete with nasty hooks, elbows and knees, until the ref
steps in.
