Shogun's Return to Australia Comes With Good Memories
The flight from Brazil to Australia is no joke, but as Mauricio “Shogun” Rua prepares for his second fight “down under” against Tyson Pedro this Saturday, the former UFC light heavyweight champion can’t help but have good memories of his last bout there.
“It certainly brings good memories,” Rua said of his 2013 win over James Te Huna in Brisbane. “It was a good day, as it was day time in Australia. I had a good training camp, and everything just came naturally during the fight, and it was so quick. I just remember it was an awesome feeling.”
