Top UFC flyweight Henry Cejudo has lost the physical embodiment of his greatest-ever athletic accomplishment in the raging wildfires that are currently ravaging Northern California, but he has escaped with his life.
After a report surfaced from the San Francisco Chronicle that Cejudo had broken his ankle escaping from the flames, “The Messenger” confirmed to Ariel Helwani of MMA Fighting that while he did not break his ankle escaping from Santa Rosa, Calif., he did suffer burns to his right foot and lost his 2008 Olympic gold medal for wrestling.
He provided photographic proof of his injured foot:
Santa Rosa is one of the areas most affected by the raging wildfire, with seven reported deaths as local authorities fear the number will rise. Several people have been reported missing in the natural disaster.
Coming off of an impressive knockout win over Wilson Reis at September’s UFC 215, Cejudo was scheduled to fight rising contender Sergio Pettis at December 2’s UFC 218. It now remains unknown if he will be able to participate in the bout, but we at LowKick MMA are thankful Cejudo has escaped with relatively minor injuries in such a dangerous spot.

We’re now just over a week away from the scheduled middleweight title rematch between bitter rivals Luke Rockhold and Michael Bisping which is slated for June 4’s UFC 199 from Inglewood, California.
Rockhold was originally set to meet ex-champion Chris Weidman, but Weidman was forced to withdraw with another injury, leading the UFC to call on Bisping to step up on extremely short notice.
Despite the short notice, however, Rockhold and Bisping haven’t had trouble hyping up the fight and ramping up the trash talk, and the two actually went back and forth on a UFC 199 media call yesterday (May 26, 2016).
Rockhold got the better of “The Count” the first time around, and he plans to not only ‘end’ Bisping again, but to run a demolition course through the 185-pound division’s elite (via FOX Sports):
“Going out there to shut Mike’s mouth, to shut all these guys mouths. All these guys have made excuses. Mike, Chris Weidman, Jacare, well guess what? I beat them all and I’m going to beat them all again, one at a time. They’re all going to get theirs,” Rockhold said.
“Mike’s a tough dude. He’s got balls. He took this fight but this will not be his fairytale. This will be his swan song. This will be the end of him.”
It appears as if the champion is out to prove something, threatening to ‘humiliate’ Bisping, and guaranteeing that the British veteran will not be holding the title after the night’s event:
“You will not be a champion. I will humiliate you next week. Mark my words — humiliation,” Rockhold said. “It’s going to be so one-sided, it’s going to be something special.”
Bisping, a notorious trash talker in his own right, fired back at Rockhold. Oozing with confidence, Bisping feels as if it’s his time to shine:
“All right, we’ll see about that. When you’re on the floor and you’re looking up at the stars it’s going to be ‘(expletive), I just lost my belt to a guy that came in on two weeks’ notice,’ took your belt that you worked so hard for on two weeks’ (expletive) notice,” Bisping said.
“How’s that going to feel?”
Who do you see taking home UFC gold next weekend?

When former UFC champion Chris Weidman pulled out of his scheduled UFC 199 (June 4, 2016) rematch with current title holder Luke Rockhold earlier this week, multiple 185-pounders offered up their services in hopes of receiving a coveted shot at gold.
One of those fighters was No. 10-ranked Uriah “Primetime” Hall, who was slated to meet Anderson Silva at last weekend’s (May 14, 2016) UFC 198 before “The Spider” was forced to withdraw with an injury of his own.
Hall, although coming off of a loss to Robert Whittaker, claimed that he was the only candidate ‘ready’ to meet Rockhold given that he had completed a training camp for UFC 198.
In the end, the UFC elected to choose No. 4-ranked Michael “The Count” Bisping to replace Weidman and meet Rockhold.
The two men have actually met before back in 2014 with Rockhold scoring a decision victory over the British veteran. Since then, however, Bisping has rattled off three-straight victories, and is coming off of a decision win over Silva last February.
Bisping appears to be deserving of the title shot, although the decision has been met with some criticism.
Hall, obviously unhappy with the situation, decided to offer up his thoughts as well, blasting Rockhold for taking the ‘easy’ fight:
He knew I had a full camp so bisping would be easy coming off 2 weeks .. Smart move .
— U R I A H H A L L (@UriahHallMMA) May 18, 2016
“Primetime” also responded to those saying he wasn’t deserving of the shot, saying that rankings and his recent loss shouldn’t have been factors:
Lol a loss means nothing ranking means nothing it’s numbers I’m over it you guys should be too
— U R I A H H A L L (@UriahHallMMA) May 18, 2016
Hall is indeed one of the very best strikers in the 185-pound division, but one would have to assume that he’d need a few more wins before facing off with Rockhold.
What do you make of the decision to make Rockhold vs. Bisping II?

Despite the chaos currently inhabiting the UFC’s featherweight division, the promotion has added an intriguing 145-pound scrap to June 4’s UFC 199 from the L.A. Forum in Inglewood, California.

Despite the chaos currently inhabiting the UFC’s featherweight division, the promotion has added an intriguing 145-pound scrap to June 4’s UFC 199 from the L.A. Forum in Inglewood, California.
Per UFC Tonight, No. 4-ranked Max “Blessed” Holloway will clash with former title challenger and No. 5-ranked Ricardo “The Bully” Lamas.
Since dropping a decision loss to reigning champion Conor McGregor in 2013, 24 year old Holloway has gone on a tear, winning eight straight bouts with six of those victories coming by way of finish.
That streak includes an impressive finish over former top contender Cub Swanson, and most recently a decision victory over Jeremy Stephens at last December’s UFC 194.
Lamas, on the other hand, received a shot at former champion Jose Aldo back in 2014, losing a rather lack luster decision. Since then, however, “The Bully” has won three of four, most recently taking a unanimous decision over veteran Diego Sanchez last November.
It was also confirmed that a previously targeted middleweight showdown between legend Dan “Hendo” Henderson and Hector Lombard will take place on the card.
Henderson was scheduled to rematch Lyoto Machida last weekend at UFC on FOX 19, but “The Dragon” was scrapped from the bout after it was revealed that he had consumed a banned substance.
Lombard will be making his return to 185 pounds after recently dropping a disappointing loss to Neil Magny.
UFC 199 is set to be headlined by a middleweight title rematch between defending champion Luke Rockhold and former divisional kingpin Chris Weidman.
Also on the card, Dominick Cruz will put his 135 pound strap on the line in a trilogy bout against bitter rival and former WEC champion Urijah Faber.

An intriguing lightweight bout has been added to June 4’s UFC 199 from the L.A Forum in California, as No. 10-ranked Dustin “The Diamond” Poirier is set to clash with Bobby “King” Green.
The promotion confirmed the news earlier today (March 14, 2016).
After competing primarily at featherweight over the past couple of years, Poirier made the jump up to 155-pounds last April, and has seen much success since, winning his last three straight.
“The Diamond” picked up an impressive knockout victory over Carlos Diego Ferreira at UFC Fight Night 63 which he followed with a TKO over Yancy Medeiros at UFC Fight Night 68.
Most recently, Poirier picked up a hard fought victory over Joe Duffy in a grueling war at January 2016’s UFC 195.
Green, on the other hand, holds a 4-1 Octagon record, and is coming off of a decision loss to vicious striker Edson Barboza. Prior to that, “King” had won four straight over Jacob Volkmann, James Krause, Pat Healy, and veteran Josh Thomson.
UFC 199 will be headlined by a middleweight title rematch between champion Luke Rockhold and former king Chris Weidman.
Dominick Cruz will also put his bantamweight title on the line in the co-main event of the evening as he squares off with “The California Kid” Urijah Faber in a highly anticipated trilogy match.
