Bobby Lashly is now a perfect 4-0 after defeating Bob “the Beast” Sapp in the main event of Ultimate Chaos last night.

During the lead-in hype, Lashley promised he would stand with Sapp, and test his stand-up skills; Lashley ended up taking the intelligent route to victory, taking Sapp down within seconds and smashing him until Sapp tapped…twice. The ref initially missed the first tapout. With the win, and his solid team behind him, a UFC debut can’t be too far off. Check out the fight below.

Roger Huerta, the one-time UFC Hispanic poster boy will be back in action on Ultimate Fight Night 19, slated for September 16 at the Cox Convention Center in Oklahoma City.

Huerta has been out of action since a decision loss to Kenny Florian at UFC 87. It was during this build-up, that Huerta openly questioned the pay scale of the UFC, no doubt endearing him to Dana White. Following the fight, Huerta announced his intentions to take a hiatus from MMA to pursue acting. I would assume this endeared him even more to Dana White, after the Zuffa boys spent years building him into a big name. Huerta was the first UFC fighter to appear on the cover of Sports Illustrated in May 2007.

Maynard on the other hand, has been steady and solid, winning 5 in a row…after his first fight after TUF 5 of course. In that fight, Maynard picked up Rob Emerson and slammed him to the mat, giving himself a DDT in the process. See the .gif below; Jake “the Snake” Roberts would have been proud.
