Gilbert Burns In jiu-jitsu math, UFC lightweight Gilbert Burns is one up on ex-lightweight champ Benson Henderson . After a rib injury that knocked him out of a fight with Norman Parke at June’s UFC Fight Night 67, Burns accepted an invitation to the Abu Dhabi Submission Wrestling Championships, where he was placed in the ex-champ’s bracket in the 77-kilogram division. There, he showed again why he is one of the most highly touted prospects at 155 pounds in the UFC’s octagon.
