NEWARK, N.J. – In a classic case of striker vs. grappler, Brazilian slugger Luiz Cane proved victorious.
Cane needed just two minutes and 15 seconds to defeat Eliot Marshall
with a powerful left hand and a dizzying barrage of ground-and-pound
blows.
The fight, which took place at Prudential Center in Newark, N.J., and
aired on Spike TV, served as the featured preliminary contest for
Saturday night’s “UFC 128: Shogun vs. Jones” event. The seven-fight
prelims preceded the card’s pay-per-view broadcast.
