Knockout artist Volkan Oezdemir returns to the Octagon on May 12 at UFC Fight Night 129 when he takes on Mauricio Rua.
Many fight fans believe that “Shogun” is well past his prime and is coming to the end of his illustrious career. However, Rua, at 36 years of age, has put together an impressive three-fight winning streak including victories over Antonio Rogerio Nogueira, Corey Anderson and Gian Villante.
Oezdemir appeared on the “The MMA Hour” and talked about how he’s not reading into what the fans think of Rua and how he’s preparing for a very dangerous opponent.
