Road to the Octagon: UFC on FOX 7


This Saturday night on April 20th in San Jose, California the UFC will return to the FOX Television Network for the seventh time.  It will be another must see event, which features one of the most electrifying cards of the year thus far.  In the main event of the evening, UFC Lightweight Champion Benson Henderson will defend his title against UFC newcomer Gilbert Melendez.  Although new to the UFC, Melendez is a well respected veteran of MMA, and he is considered by many to be the best lightweight in the world.  He enters the UFC riding a 4 year unbeaten streak.

Also featured on the card is the very interesting heavyweight match up between UFC veteran Frank Mir and rising star Daniel Cormier, as well as the lightweight scrap between Nate Diaz and Josh Thomson.  These are both fights that are guaranteed to showcase some fast paced, high energy mixed martial arts.

Check out the latest “Road to the Octagon” below.  As always, it features a very interesting look inside the life and training camps of these world class mixed martial artists as they prepare for battle.
