Las Vegas, NV

Alex Pereira gave the UFC and its fans plenty to celebrate. Stepping in on short notice against a dangerous opponent he’d defeated just seven months ago, Pereira put on one hell of an encore as he once again put Jiri Prochazka away via strikes in the main event of UFC 303 on Saturday in Las Vegas. Their first fight concluded with a fair, if early stoppage, but there was no doubt that Pereira had Prochazka’s number in the rematch.

Fighting is no easy work. It has gotten significantly harder for PFL featherweight Gabriel Braga since the death of his father and mentor Diego Braga in January. Braga, who went from a PFL alternate to 145-pound finalist in 2023, fought for the first time without his father in the corner when he knocked out Justin Gonzales in the first round in April. He returns to action Friday against Bubba Jenkins at PFL 6 in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and admits he’s still trying to get used to the idea his father is not around.

In a night full off stoppages, the featherweight main event to PFL 6 between Brendan Loughnane and Justin Gonzales ended via technical knockout (TKO), but it wasn’t in the traditional sense. In round two, Loughnane tagged Gonzales with a perfectly-placed knee to the forehead which busted him wide open....

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

Last night (Sat., June 29, 2024), Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) returned home to the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, for UFC 303. I do not have the heart to explain why Conor McGregor wasn’t fighting for the millionth time (click here if you somehow do not know the story). Regardless of all the hits it took along the way, the UFC 303 event that did go down was worth the time, particularly the stellar main event between Alex Pereira and Jiri Prochazka.
