This coming Saturday MMA Legends are set to take the desert by storm.  UFC 112 takes place in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, with a card stacked full of true MMA fighters.

First up, the Middleweight Champion fight between current champ Anderson Silva and top Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu specalist Demian Maia.  Anderson Silva is coming off somewhat of an explosive fight against Forrest Griffin where he won by a first round verbal KO.  Griffin has gone undefeated in the octagon and is looking to keep heading down that road.  However he’s got some trouble as Demian Maia is also coming off amazing wins, except for the one KO loss to Nate Marquardt back in August.  This fight is going to be tough to call but I see Demian Maia going to the ground for a Submission victory in the 2^nd round.

Frankie Edgar and BJ Penn are set to fight for the Lightweight Title belt.  BJ Penn is a legend in the sport and has fought legends in the sport.  Coming off a deadly battle against Diego Sanchez, BJ Penn is ready to finish this fight.  Frankie Edgar on the other hand is coming off some all but amazing fights.  Only twice in the cage has he finished the fight.  It’s easy to say that Edgar is outmatched in this fight and BJ Penn will win by either Submission or KO.

Now the legend vs legend fight, UFC Vet Matt Hughes versus MMA Legend Renzo Gracie.  Gracie, as we all know, comes from the most famous family in MMA history.  He is an amazing BJJ artist, as well as a never quit fighter, much like his cousin Royce.  Hughes has had the honor of defeating a Gracie, along with many other legends such as BJ Penn, GSP, and Carlos Newton.  In the end Renzo Gracie by Submission in the 1^st round.

Other fights on the card are Terry Etim and Rafael Dos Anjos, and Kendal Grove versus Mark Munoz.  These fights take place Saturday April 7, 2010 on PPV.
