UFC FN 56: Ovince St. Preux Quickly Bombs Out “Shogun” Rua

St-Preux

By FCF Staff

Ovince St. Preux quickly silenced the crowd tonight at UFC Fight Night 56 in Uberlandia, Brazil, as he needed just over 30 seconds to stop that nation’s “Shogun” Rua.

Shortly into the bout, Rua was dropped by a left hook as he charged in, and St. Preux finished the former light-heavyweight champ with a series of punches.

The card featured six bouts that went to decision, in stark contrast to last night’s UFC FN 55, which saw 11 finishes.

Here are the official results from UFC Fight Night 56.
