Other main card contests at UFC 104 live event include an all American heavyweight bout between Cain Valasquez and Ben Rothwell, 2 lightweight bouts featuring Gleison Tibau against Josh Neer and Joe Stevenson versus Spencer Fisher. The final main card event sees Anthony Johnson take on Japan’s Yoshiyuki Yoshida in a welterweight bout.

American born Valasquez is of Mexican descent and that steel and grit has helped him to an unbeaten record of 6-0 with 5 wins by knockout. If the 27 year old continues in this vain of form surely it’s only a matter of time before he gets a shot at the current champ Brock Lesnar for the UFC Heavyweight Championship. Vastly experienced ‘Big Ben’ Rothwell will no doubt give his opponent a tough contest, his 33-6 professional record had him ranked at #10 in the world in July 2008.

5ft 10” Brazilian Tibau goes into his contest having lost 3 of his last 5 fights including a submission against another lightweight fighter on the main card, Joe Stevenson. Josh ‘The Dentist’ Neer on the other hand has recorded a victory over Stevenson, all be in April 2006.

Joe Stevenson has had an inconsistent career to date, losing 10 of his 40 professional fights. Spencer ‘The King’ Fisher has been more steady racking up 23 victories in his 27 contests.

At 6ft 2” American Anthony ‘Rumble’ Johnson will be towering over his opponent. He has 4 first round victories in his 9 contests so far. Yoshida from Tokyo, Japan, will be a tough match with 8 of his 11 victories coming in the first round.
