UFC 130: RAMPAGE VS. HAMILL SPIKE TV PREVIEW

The major fights of UFC 130 may be taking place on pay-per-view, but there are two important fights taking place on Spike TV. These two fights will be featuring a former WEC Bantamweight Champion and a UFC Ultimate Fighter 3 Champion. Remember, due to the new start time of the pay-per-view, the action on Spike TV will kick off at 8pm EST.

Kicking off the action is a middleweight encounter as Tim “The Barbarian” Boetsch (12-4-0) faces Kendall “Da Spyder” Grove (12-8-0). Since returning to the UFC late last year, Tim Boetsch has split his two fights in the promotion with a notable loss to Phil Davis. Kendall Grove may be fighting for a job in the UFC in this fight, losing two of his last three fights in the promotion. This fight is a battle to avoid a pink slip and Kendall Grove will become the fighter not getting the pink slip after this fight is over.

Headlining this portion of the card is a bantamweight fight as Demetrious “Mighty Mouse” Johnson (8-1-0) takes on Miguel Torres (39-3-0). Demetrious Johnson made a major impact in his UFC debut, defeating top ranked Japanese fighter Norifumi Yamamoto at UFC 126. Miguel Torres is a former WEC Bantamweight Champion and he scored a victory over Antonio Banuelos at UFC 126 in his UFC debut. This fight is prime for a huge upset, which is exactly what Demetrious Johnson will be pulling over Miguel Torres on Saturday Night.
