Paul Craig Is Determined to Settle Score with Shogun

Just over a year ago, Paul Craig and “Shogun” Rua fought to a draw in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Since that day, Scotland’s Craig felt like he and the former champion had unfinished business. Unfortunately, a rematch didn’t materialize, and both Shogun and Craig were slated to take on different opponents on the same card: UFC Fight Night: Whittaker vs Till in July.

Craig (13-4-1) would go on to submit Gadzhimurad Antigulov in the first round and Shogun earned a hard-fought decision over Antônio Rogério Nogueira. Immediately following his victory, Craig called for the UFC to let him run it back with Shogun.
