SAO PAULO – At Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 137, Ben Saunders suffered an unfortunate MMA career first: Thanks to grappling ace Sergio Moraes , he tapped out  for the first time. Saunders (22-10-2 MMA, 10-7 UFC) could have, understandably, chosen to mope over it. Instead, the 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu product chose to approach Moraes (14-3-1 MMA, 8-2-1 UFC) with a request. “(Saunders) said, ‘You’re very tight. It’s no wonder you’re a three-time jiu-jitsu world champion,’” Moraes said of the post-fight conversation he had with Saunders, while still in the octagon at Ibirapuera Gymnasium in Sao Paulo. “Then he said, ‘I’m going to go train with you.’ I said, ‘You can come.’” Saunders wasn’t just saying that.
