Montano sees advantage in being underdog to Shevchenko
Nicco Montano won the inaugural UFC women's flyweight championship late in 2017, but has been sidelined since with injuries. Now she fights former bantamweight title contender Valentina Shevchenko at UFC 228 on September 8; odds against her at -900. “It’s definitely an advantage," she said on a recent UFC Unfiltered podcast. "The scenario is kind of a win-win for me. I've already made history. I’ve done a lot of things, especially opening up this new division. The other scenario is I beat Shevchenko, so it’s definitely a win-win for me. No stress on my shoulders. I think it will be an entertaining fight for sure.” H/T MMAWeekly
Wanderlei Silva to run for office, Rampage fight may be his last
Wanderlei Silva fights 'Rampage' Jackson at Bellator 206 on 9/29 and eight days later will be running for political office in Brazil. “I’m facing this as maybe it is my last fight," he said. "I will run for federal deputy now. It’s a new career, a new time in my life. I’m seeing the need for it. There are guys being elected that have no business being there, a bunch of poor guys, dishonest guys that steal from the people. You have to put guys that have an ideal and already have money to live so they don’t need to steal from the people. I will do this fight and then I’ll run for congress and if I get elected, I’ll go one direction, and if I don’t get elected, I’ll go another one. But the intention is that maybe this is my last fight. … I think that being elected or not, maybe this is my last fight. I’ve done enough. But there are a lot of people coming back. I think that my performance will say if it’s my last one or not.” H/T MMA Fighting

Rockhold: Jones and Lesnar should be suspended for a long time
Former UFC middleweight champion Luke Rockhold is a ferocious advocate for anti-doping measures in MMA, and singled out two of the biggest PPV draws in the sport's history. "This sport is starting to get a little jokey. I’m just sick of watching Brock, watching Jon – when you get down to real business, these guys should be suspended for a long time. People are learning how to cheat the system. USADA is owned by the UFC. I like fighting clean. I’ve always fought clean, and I want to fight clean people. I want to fight fair. I want a fair playing field. USADA’s got to step their game up and be what they were in the beginning. In the beginning, it seemed like they were doing their job. Now it seems like they’re owned. It’s sad to see, but hopefully, it can correct itself and we can get on the right path. I’m sick of it all, and I love it all at the same time.” H/T MMAjunkie
