An in-depth preview of Strikeforce Challengers 15 featuring Justin Wilcox vs Rodrigo Damm.

Strikeforce Challengers 12 Post-Fight Interviews - Justin Wilcox on his huge win over Vitor Ribeiro

Vitor Ribeiro learned a lot from his loss to Shinya Aoki. The Brazilian talked with The MMA Encyclopedia author Jonathan Snowden about an important learning experience.

Vitor Ribeiro was once the world's best lightweight. So why is he an unknown to many MMA fans? Jonathan Snowden sits down with one of the sport's best.

An already stacked STRIKEFORCE Challengers card just got that much stronger with the announcement that Dream World Champion Marius “The Whitemare” Zaromskis will take on battle-tested Waachiim Spiritwolf on Friday, Nov. 19, at Jackson Convention Complex in Jackson, Miss., LIVE on SHOWTIME® at 11 p.m. ET/PT.

And last but certainly not least - EA SPORTS MMA is proud to announce the fighters in the Lightweight and Welterweight classes

Fans of big-time lightweight action are in the midst of a delightful August. In just two days at UFC 118, #1 Frank Edgar will rematch #2 B.J. Penn. It's a rematch of their controversial first bout at UFC 112 when Edgar stole the title in a close decision.

At UFC 118 in August, we'll see if #1 Frank Edgar's win over #2 B.J. Penn at UFC 112 was a fluke or a precedent.

Another division that hasn't been moving much. The only jump with any meaning is #14 Evan Dunham's leap up from #34 after beating #13 (formerly #9) Tyson Griffin at UFC 115.

After enduring a colossal shake up in April, the lightweight rankings were mostly static in May. #1 Frank Edgar will have to rematch #2 B.J. Penn for his first title defense at UFC 118. Good luck Frankie
