Sherdog.com Preview: Ultimate Fight Night Part I
Introduction
Apr 5, 2006
The fourth Ultimate Fight Night precedes the newest
installment of Spike TV's The Ultimate Fighter. As you might
expect, UFN 4 is chock-full of TUF veterans — and
unfortunately most bouts feature them against one another.
In my opinion, if they want people to stop referring to these guys as “Team Hollywood,” they shouldn’t match them together.
There are seven non-TUF fighters and 11 athletes from the
first two seasons of the reality show on this card. The more
interesting match-ups include Chalangov-Koscheck, Burkman-Fitch and
Bonnar-Jardine. Some may disagree with me and that is fine.
Hopefully every bout rocks and it is the best UFN ever.
The entire event breaks down as follows:
Legion Fight Team striker Ansar Chalangov confronts American Kickboxing Academy wrestler Josh Koscheck (Pictures).
