Chas Skelly: ‘I Haven’t Done a Great Job of Promoting Myself’

Chas Skelly isn’t pinning the blame on anyone but himself for not getting more recognition. Since WME-IMG took ownership of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), there has been a greater emphasis on “money fights.” Fighters who promote themselves well and have the “it factor,” tend to get pushed up the ranks quicker. Skelly admits that […]

This fight is on the preliminary card bout and it basically marks the return of Dave Branch to the UFC after a six year long hiatus. Branch was a two – division WSOF champ and is also regarded and respected as one of the best fighters even outside the octagon. However, despite all of his former glory and reputation, it cannot be denied that Branch has something to prove on upon his long awaited return. Will he be able to keep Jotko under control?

UFC 211: Jason Knight Vs. Chas Skelly

Yet another fight which is being featured on the preliminary bout see’s Jason Knight take on Chas Skelly. Knight is a promising 24 – year old who recently impressed with a massive win over Alex Caceres. In fact, the fight did not even go to the judges, Knight was able to dish out a submission which left Caceres will little choice but to wave the white flag.

Chas Skelly will be a different ball game though, he has a background in wresting and so it is certainly not going to be easy to Knight to pull off one of his signature submissions. Skelly has been able to win most of his competitive fights thus far in a convincing manner, will he be able to keep that up against Knight?

UFC 211: Marco Polo Reyes Vs. James Vick

Reyes comes from The Ultimate Fighter: Latin America 2 in which he was a competitor. Since that competition has come to an end, Reyes has been in good form and has put out some exceptional results.

UFC 211: Gabriel Benitez Vs. Enrique Barzola

Benitez and Barzola are going into this knowing that one of the might be handed the pink slip. There really is a lot to lose here. Neither fighter has justified their inclusion in the UFC thus far and now the loser will in all likelihood, lose it all. The question is though – who will it be?
