Eryk Anders was going to count fighting in Madison Square Garden last month as one of his bucket list items, but a bout of food poisoning pushed his matchup with Chris Weidman to this Saturday in Las Vegas. Regardless, the 37-year-old middleweight is sticking to the plan he told us about in June of last year that he was only going to fight five more times before walking off into the sunset. Shortly after that revelation, he lost a decision to Marc-Andre Barriault that earned him Fight of the Night honors, and in March, he defeated Jamie Pickett.
That’s two.
