The UFC Pays Tribute to Evan Tanner This Week

Respectfully the UFC has plans to remember one of the organizations fallen soldiers this week during UFC Fight Night 15 which takes place on Wednesday.

During the broadcast, the UFC will pay homage to former UFC middleweight champion Evan Tanner who died last week from heat exhaustion in the Palo Verde desert.

“Dana White said this morning that they will be dedicating Wednesday night’s live show on Spike from Omaha, headlined by Houston Alexander vs. Eric Schafer, to Evan Tanner and that they will be airing an Evan Tanner TV tribute show on Spike.  White said they’ve also put together 30 second tribute spots for Tanner that will be airing soon.”

Make sure you tune on Wednesday night and don’t forget RedSweat will be bringing you live results and up-to-the-minute play-by-play for Wednesday night’s main card.
