Once again Iaquinta Nation, it’s Fight Night. Tonight LIVE from the Foxwoods Resort and Casino, Al Iaquinta will take on Rodrigo Damm in what will be a very important match up for both fighters. The younger Iaquinta will come in looking to bounce back against a tough Brazilian opponent in Rodrigo Damm. Iaquinta has rebounded well following a loss so far in his career, something he hasn’t had to deal with very often. “I guess it’s one of those things you have to chalk up to experience” Iaquinta said discussing his loss to Mitch Clarke in May. “Some guys don’t get caught, and I have to become one of those guys.” Iaquinta went on “ That guy shouldn’t have lasted the first round with me.” Continue Reading

On September 5th Al Iaquinta(8-3-1) will step back into the octagon against Rodrigo Damm(12-7). The fight will take place at Foxwoods Resorts and Casino in Connecticut as well as LIVE on Fox Sports 1. Both Iaquinta and Damm will enter the fight with a bit of a chip on their shoulders, both coming off somewhat surprising losses. Iaquinta being chocked out via D’Arce by Mitch Clarke, and Damm lossing to Rashid Magomedov by unanimous decision. Before that, both fighters we’re riding respected win streaks that came to a halt. Look for Iaquinta and Damm to both be highly motivated and looking to get back into the win column at UFC Fight Night 50. Continue Reading

In case you missed it over the weekend, Al Iaquinta vs. Rodrigo Damm has been added to UFC Fight Night on September 5th. The event will take place at Foxwoods Resort and Casino in Connecticut. The event will be on a rare Friday night, directly competing with a Bellator card scheduled for that evening as well. Both Iaquinta and Damm will look to bounce back following a tough loss in their previous fights. An important fight for both competitors as they will look to prove they’re still at the top of the division. Just a small bump in the road for Iaquinta during his last fight. Expect to see a focused and motivated fighter come out looking to send a message in September.

As always be sure to check here for constant updates, interviews, T-Shirt sales, and much more. With the fight being so close by right in Conneticut, we hope to see “Iaquinta Nation” out in full force for the fight. I’ll have information on here about ticket sales, hotels, ect. Contact me at MattPellicane@gmail.com with any questions or for T-Shirt sales.

Once again Iaquinta Nation it’s fight night(forgive this post for being a few days early but I’m off to Vegas and will be without a computer for a few days). Kicking off this Saturday’s Fox Sports 1 Prelims will be Al Iaquinta taking on Mitch Clarke. Iaquinta comes in with a three fight win streak, and has shown how much his skill set has improved since his year layoff following TUF Live. Clarke who has had a difficult time staying healthy himself, will square off against a focused and motivated Iaquinta.

Fight after fight Iaquinta has been able to dominate each fighter he’s faced. He fought smart, efficiently, and out worked each of his respected opponents. Fight by fight he has been faced with different challenges and was able to come out victorious each time. Very quietly, some seemed to feel, Al beat some very tough young opponents. Continue Reading
