On the Rise: San Antonio Edition

UFC San Antonio features a trio of bantamweights looking to impress — two in their first appearances in the Octagon and one after turning in a strong performance in a losing effort in his short-notice debut.

Saturday night in Sacramento, a pair of Team Alpha Male representatives and one of the most underrated female fighters in the sport closed out the night in spectacular fashion, as Josh Emmett, Urijah Faber, and Germaine de Randamie needed just over five minutes combined to bring the final three bouts of the evening to sharp, sudden ends.

Now on the heels of a hometown show for Faber and the rest of the Team Alpha Male crew, the Octagon makes its sophomore appearance in San Antonio, Texas, arriving at the AT&T Center for a 13-fight affair that includes a trio of heavyweight contests, two crucial lightweight matchups and a main event that will help clear up the cloudy contender picture in the welterweight ranks.
