After years of waiting, the Ultimate Fighting Championship finally made their first trek
up to Canada official when they announced UFC 83: St. Pierre vs Serra II at the Bell Centre
in Montreal, Quebec, Canada earlier this morning.
Matt Serra originally applied to be on the Ultimate Fighter (TUF) show in season four
(the come back). he beted out the guys in his weight class giving him a title fight.
Serra was definately the underdog in that fight, everyone was 100% sure that St.Pierre
was going to win that fight by knock out or submission. But infact in the first round
Serra rocked St.Pierre finishing him by TKO, and becoming the NEW Welter
Weight championship.
St. Pierre, the Canadian, will be fighting on his home turf in Montreal. The entire crowd
should be on his side. He might finally be reaching his full potential, evident by his
domination of Hughes and Koscheck in his last two fights where he excelled striking on his feet,
in the clinch, and on the ground. He was able to keep distance on his feet and slowly pick
them apart via a combination of punches and leg strikes.
Wrestling was once seen as a weakness of St. Pierre, but that is no longer the case.
He essentially outwrestled two of the best in Koscheck and Hughes, who are both former
college All-American wrestlers.
