Ovince Saint Preux: 'I have the most knockout power in the UFC light heavyweight division'

When Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) kicks things off this Sat. night (Aug. 8, 2015) for UFC Fight Night 73 in Nashville, Tennessee, it will invade "Music City" with a light heavyweight main event between Glover Teixeira and Ovince Saint Preux.

Teixeira -- a former 205-pound title challenger -- looks to ward off the surging Tennessee-based fighter in Saint Preux while avoiding a career-crippling, third-straight loss. It will prove to be a difficult assignment for the Brazilian, who has been out of action since his UFC 179 loss to Phil Davis because of a bum knee.

Unlike Teixeira, Saint Preux has been healthy and active.
