the american Ryan bader is out of the fight against the Brazilian Glover Teixeira at UFC 160, an event that takes place on May 25, in Las Vegas, in the United States. The winner of the eighth edition of The Ultimate Fighter, the UFC reality show, suffered an injury during training and is out of action. To replace him, the show's organizers acted quickly and called on Australian James Te Huna.
Facing his new rival, Glover, who has an MMA record of 20 wins and two losses, is trying to score his fourth UFC triumph. In his last appearance, the Minas Gerais fighter defeated the former champion Quinton Rampage Jackson at UFC on FOX 6 in January 2013.
In turn, Te Huna, who has a professional record of 16 wins and five losses, is also experiencing a good moment in his career. The Australian has four wins in the Octagon, the last being over Ryan Jimmo at UFC on FUEL 7, in February this year.
In addition to Glover, the UFC 160 fight program features two more Brazilians in action. In the main fight of the night, Antonio Pezão challenges Cain Velazquez for the heavyweight belt, while junior gypsy returns to the octagon to face the New Zealander Mark Hunt.
