Upon close inspection, it's rather remarkable just how many of the fighters on tonight's UFC on FOX 4 card are aiming for one more attempt at MMA glory after dealing with adversity, personal mismanagement and failure. We all know the story of Brandon Vera, who at age 34, is in a fight he dubiously earned yet has a real opportunity to undo career shortcomings.
Then there are the other light heavyweights vying for a title shot. None of them are irrelevant, of course, but after being thoroughly dismantled in title fights, they are already on the precipice of another title opportunity. That means a chance to right what went so drastically wrong.
