The more things change, the more they stay the same. Glover Teixeira kept his name in light heavyweight title contention on Saturday night, battering Ovince Saint Preux before putting the streaking up-and-comer to sleep in front of the Tennessee faithful at UFC Fight Night 73.
The win was an important one for Teixeira, but in terms of sheer reactions from the pros, it ended up taking a backseat to the implausible and unexplainable robbery that happened in the evening's co-main event, as Beneil Dariush captured a split decision over Michael Johnson in a hugely significant fight for the lightweight division.
