About to face another challenge in his journey toward a middleiweght title bout in the UFC, Ronaldo Jacaré has momentum on his side against Robert Whittaker for next Saturday’s UFC Kansas City.

Having won his last two fights in round 1, Jacaré now has seven wins in eight fights, with four submissions. Get warmed up for Saturday by watching some of his best moments in the Octagon, like the tap-outs of Gegard Mousasi and Tim Boetsch, the knockout over Vitor Belfort, and more.

There have been cases reported from all over the country of many victims, young and old. To play the game you must sneak up on an unsuspecting person and punch them as hard as you can. The reward for those who succeed in knocking their victim unconscious is inflated social status among peers and a disturbing sense of pride.

Don’t be a victim by staying aware of your surroundings at all times. Training Jiu-Jitsu doesn’t only allow you the techniques to defend yourself but the confidence and awareness to keep yourself safe. The techniques you know probably won’t come of use if you never see the attack coming so it’s important to take preventive measures as well.

Earlier this year at UFC 160, the co-main event featured a heavyweight tilt between former heavyweight champion Junior dos Santos and fan-favorite Mark Hunt. The winner of the match would likely get the next shot at the title – a fate much more likely for dos Santos given his place in the rankings.

In the fight, JDS and Hunt went back and forth until the Australian began to fade, allowing dos Santos to gain momentum and push towards a decision win. But a surprise in the form of a spinning heel kick ended the fight, with JDS leaving Hunt lying on the octagon floor in a bloody mess.

Rumors of UFC middleweight Michael Bisping being knocked out while sparring at Freddie Roach’s Wild Card Boxing gym were denied by the fighter and boxing trainer today and yesterday.

Bisping and Roach took to Twitter to clarify that at no time did the fighter spar with one of Roach’s professional boxers and get knocked unconscious.

“I have never been ko’d sparring at wildcard gym, or in sparring ever,” Bisping tweeted.

Roach, in answering a fan on Twitter, had a much shorter explanation when addressing the rumor that one of his boxers knocked out Bisping.

“Not true,” he wrote.

Bisping added that he has been recovering from eye surgery and hasn’t sparred in a while, further shooting down rumors of his recent knockout.

Rumors began when a blog post by MiddleEasy.com said that Bisping came into the boxing gym and became too aggressive with his sparring partner. Roach, according to the post, then paired Bisping with an unnamed professional boxer. The boxer then knocked Bisping out.

“The Count” is currently scheduled to take on Mark Munoz at an upcoming UFC event in October. Munoz told GRACIEMAG.com’s Choke MMA Show that  he felt Bisping would be a good fit for him as a next opponent, and the fight was reportedly booked for Manchester, England days later.

Before he got knockout out by Chris Weidman at UFC 162, Anderson Silva laid a path of destruction for several years. Here’s your video proof. Enjoy!

UFC flyweight John Moraga is the No. 1 contender to Demetrious Johnson’s title, and the reason why is because of finishes like this one. Watch Moraga win his UFC debut by knocking out Ulysses Gomez at UFC on Fox 4.
