There are only a few fighters on UFC 129’s card that can grasp how huge the event is, and not just because it’s in a big arena.
Vladimir Matyushenko has lived through MMA’s dark days, so he knows how
far the sport has come when a fight card draws 55,000 fans.
“I’m not just happy for myself, but also for all (the) MMA community,”
Matyushenko told MMAjunkie.com Radio. “The fighters, the promoters, and the fans.
We made it together.”
