It was a rocky night on Rocky Top for Ultimate Fighting Championship light heavyweight contender Ovince St. Preux on Saturday at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tenn.
St. Preux walked out to the University of Tennessee marching band’s version of “Rocky Top,” but it was opponent Glover Teixeira who came out on top in the UFC Fight Night “Teixeira vs. St. Preux” main event. “OSP” could not defend Teixeira’s takedowns, as the Brazilian succeeded on five of his nine attempts before scoring the rear-naked choke submission 3:10 into round three.
