Shogun May Have Signed with the UFC

Just posted on the Chute Boxe official website: - Mauricio "Shogun" Rua has signed a contract with the UFC and may participate in UFC 72. This is far from official until it comes out of the mouth of UFC mouth piece Dana White but this could be huge news. Shogun is the epitome of the kind of fighter that the Ultimate Fighting Champship needs. He's world class on his feet and on the ground and has the skills to easily win via KO (as he did with Quinton Jackson) or submission. There are not many mixed martial artist with his versatility and would be a welcome addition to the UFC fans who may not be familar with his Pride fights. Until the speculation ends, I'll hold off on my opinion of how his career might unfold with the UFC.
