After UFC 97 Win, Krzysztof Soszynski Ready Again for UFC 98


Most MMA fighters like to take a few months off in between fights, but Krzysztof Soszynski is not like most MMA fighters.

Soszynski, who beat Brian Stann at UFC 97 on April 18, is getting ready to return to the Octagon to fight Andre Gusmao at UFC 98 on May 23. In an interview with FanHouse, Soszynski said he'll be ready to fight -- and that he's just happy to get to fight in the UFC. The full interview is below.

Krzysztof Soszynski vs. Andre Gusmao at UFC 98: Is Five Weeks Off Enough?


Yet another new name has been added to the rapidly changing UFC 98 card, with Krzysztof Soszynski added to the May 23 show to face Andre Gusmao. The addition of Soszynski is the result of an injury to Houston Alexander; Alexander was previously slated to face Gusmao but suffered a broken hand.

Houston Alexander Breaks Hand, Out of UFC 98 Matchup

UFC light-heavyweight brawler Houston Alexander has broken his hand, forcing him out of his UFC 98 matchup with Andre Gusmao.

The news was first reported on the UFC's Twitter page.

The 37-year-old Alexander made a major first impression on UFC fans, knocking out Keith Jardine as a major underdog in his May 2007 debut, then following it up with another highlight-reel KO over Alessio Sakara.

Renzo Gracie Plans Return to Action

MMA pioneer Renzo Gracie is in the midst of helping Matt Serra prepare for his UFC 98 grudge match with Matt Hughes, but he also has some personal long-term goals in mind. Gracie, who has not fought in over two years, recently told TriStateFighter.com that he plans to return to action in late 2009.

Gracie has not fought since February 2007 in the maiden voyage of EliteXC, and was awarded a victory in the main event after Frank Shamrock was disqualified for delivering an illegal knee while Gracie was grounded.

Gracie has fought just four times in the last five years, and is 13-6 with one draw and one no contest in his career.
