Rizin Fighting Federation champion from Japan against a Chinese
135-pounder is confirmed for the
Ultimate Fighting Championship's upcoming visit to
Shanghai.
Kai Asakura seeks back-to-back UFC wins against Qileng Aori in
Shanghai
After a stellar run in Rizin, Kai Asakura
suffered back-to-back defeats at flyweight upon joining the UFC. He
then moved up to bantamweight and picked up his first win in the
promotion. Asakura will now look to compile a win streak when he
takes on Qileng Aori
at
UFC Shanghai on Aug. 29.
Aori enters the bout with a 4-5-1 UFC record. He has struggled for
consistency, with just two wins in his last six outings. The
33-year-old is coming off a TKO defeat to Cody Haddon
in May.
Meanwhile, Asakura will look to build momentum after recording his
maiden UFC win in May. He knocked out Cameron
Smotherman at
UFC Macau, marking his 17th finish in 22 career wins. Flyweight
is firmly in the rear-view mirror for the Japanese star after he
was submitted by former champion Alexandre
Pantoja and Tim Elliott
at 125 pounds.
This isn't the only bantamweight bout confirmed for UFC Shanghai,
as the Fight Night headliner features Umar
Nurmagomedov against Yadong
Song. Other Chinese fighters confirmed for the card include
former title challenger Xiaonan Yan,
veteran flyweight Su Mudaerji
and UFC newcomer Ce Liu.

Guilherme Uriel corrects his DWCS ‘sin’ with 50-second submission

Uriel believes he made a mistake by not using his jiu-jitsu in
his first
Dana White's Contender Series appearance last year.
Uriel (8-2) made his second DWCS appearance on Aug. 25 in a
heavyweight matchup against Mario
Piazzon in
Week 3 of Season 10. Uriel made Piazzon tap to a standing
guillotine in 50 seconds to earn an
Ultimate Fighting Championship contract.
Guilherme Uriel explains the jiu-jitsu adjustment that helped
earn his UFC contract
Uriel had previously suffered a knockout loss against Josh Hokit
in his first DWCS opportunity last year. He believes he shouldn't
have abandoned his jiu-jitsu against Hokit. Uriel knew that
Piazzon, being a product of the
Galpao Da Luta gym, would inevitably grapple and hence worked
on his takedown defense and fence work ahead of their DWCS
bout.
“One of the things from last time, it was my sin not to use my
jiu-jitsu,†Uriel said in his post-fight interview. “And with all
due respect to Galpao Da Luta, that’s a great gym. We know they’re
tough people, but we trained all that, all the time. We knew that
jiu-jitsu was going to happen, and we, all the takedown defenses,
just make sure that everything was against the fence. And when that
neck was there, I said, ‘I’m taking that home. I’m not going to let
that go.'â€
Uriel has finished all eight of his career wins in the first
round.

Nina Drama says Dana White helped get stalker put on no-fly list

Dana White is resourceful and looks out for those in his good
graces.
graces.
Content creator Nina Marie-Daniele, who covers several TKO events,
recently revealed how White helped her deal with a stalker.
Daniele's phone number was once leaked on the internet, leading to
numerous calls from unknown numbers. However, one stalker got
really persistent and wouldn't stop bothering Daniele until White
intervened.
Dana White got Nina Drama's stalker added to no-fly list
Daniele claims the stalker used to send her videos of cartel
beheadings. She then approached the
Ultimate Fighting Championship CEO for help. Daniele says she
got a call from counter terrorism within a couple of minutes after
calling White.
Counter terrorism found the stalker's details within a day and put
him on a no-fly list so that he couldn't come to Las Vegas.
“I got a stalker,†Daniele said on her Kick stream. “The stalker
was crazy, he was out of his f*cking mind and he wouldn't stop
harassing me. He was sending me cartel beheadings and all these
kind of stuff. So, I told Dana. And Dana was like, ‘Hold on, babe,
one minute.' And then two seconds later, I had counter terrorism
call me and they showed up at my house. And they took all my
information and by the next morning they found my stalker. And they
put him on a no-fly list so that he could never come to Vegas.â€
A couple of years ago I had a crazy stalker
and I called Dana White for help and he sent the counter terrorism
team to my home and the next day they found the stalker and put him
on a no fly list. Freaking love Dana… he don't mess around pic.twitter.com/qAtplsqDBN— Nina-Marie Daniele (@Ninadrama)
