Thomas Gerbasi, UFC - If TJ Grant was going to break, this was the perfect time to do it. It didn't matter that he had won 13 of 15 pro mixed martial arts fights, including two out of three in the same arena in Montreal where he stood now on April 18th. This was the one people were going to remember, his UFC debut before 21, 451 fans. Across the Octagon stood Ryo Chonan, a fighter who had already sent the likes of Anderson Silva, Carlos Newton, Mach Sakurai, and Joey Villasenor to defeat. Cornering Chonan was one of Grant's favorite fighters of all-time, Dan Henderson. Now Henderson was telling Chonan how to beat him.
