Vinny “Pezao” Magalhaes is back to the UFC. The light heavyweight, who lost to Ryan Bader on the TUF 8 Finale, signed a contract with the organization and is set to fight at UFC 151, on September 1st, TATAME learned with sources.
The Brazilian, who helped Chael Sonnen’s Jiu-Jitsu trainings for his rematch against Anderson Silva, is 7-1 after leaving the UFC, winning the M-1 Global light heavyweight championship.

WAR VINNY! I wonder who they'll put him up against.
I think Thiago Silva would make a good fight, Vinny would still take him tho.
I mean silva is a legit black belt but i think forrest is better cause he is bigger, stronger and trains with drysdale. Also forrest is a bigger name is vinny wins which i think its a toss up.Quote:

Interesting. He told me he had requested Kingsbury or Bonner.
Nice striker vs grappler combo I got Vinny by sick submission.
Nice! I can't wait to see some high level aggresive jits on the main stage, make it happen Vinny!
Bonnar wants a Rampage/Shogun/Forrest big name fight, or he wants to retire. Vinny is amazing, but he is not as 'well know' as those guys - yet. :-)Quote:

Damn, Joe Silva is not doing Vinny any favors. That's a tough match up. I pick Vinny to win though. Time to watch good BJJ in the UFC again.Quote:
