UFC 135: Rashad Evans Live Video Webchat

by Mike Fagan on Sep 23, 2011 12:45 PM EDT in UFC Video

Rashad Evans follows Jason Miller and Michael BIsping with this live Ustream webchat at 1 p.m. ET. Evans will be in attendance at UFC 135 in Denver, Colorado, and it is expected that he will challenge the winner of the main event between Jon Jones and Quinton Jackson.

Evans was originally scheduled to fight Jones at UFC 133, but a hand injury forced Jones off the card. Jones and Evans had trained together at Greg Jackson's gym in Albuquerque, until an offhand remark by Jones leading into his title shot at UFC 128 caused a rift in camp. Evans now trains with a group affectionately called the "Blackzilians" down in Boca Raton, Florida.

Evans ended up fighting Tito Ortiz, who was coming off a shocking upset of Ryan Bader, at UFC 133, stopping him in the second round with a knee. It was Evans' first fight in fifteen months.

Evans will celebrate his 32nd birthday on Sunday.

I met you (RE) in Denver at lunch with Bill Neff in 2007. To all the haters…you are a straight up good dude. Can JBJ hang with Page for 5 rounds. He seemed tired in fights and Page has gone 5 rounds, no problem and looks like he is in serious shape. If Page weathers the storm, does his cardio win him this fight?
