Filed under: Featured Videos , News , UFC , Videos LAS VEGAS – Ovince Saint Preux had an interesting way of dealing with an ankle injury during the first round of his fight with Rafael Cavalcante. He just told his brain to make the pain go away or something. Whatever he did, it worked. Or at the very least, it didn’t hold Saint Preux (19-7 MMA, 7-2 UFC) back from dominating Cavalcante (12-7 MMA, 1-4 UFC) for a unanimous decision win on the main card of UFC Fight Night 82 on Saturday night. Their fight wasn’t a barnburner on the FOX Sports 1-televised main card at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, but it was impressive for Saint Preux in other ways. “I was backing up and he started going forward,” Saint Preux told MMAjunkie at the post-event news conference, describing how he came to injure his right ankle to begin with.
