Friday. The 36-year-old Stouffville resident, who sported a few cuts on the top of his forehead courtesy of some elbow strikes from Hecht, was awarded the fight after earning three decisions by identical 29-28 scores. For Pierson, the victory enabled him to even his UFC record to 2-2 and snap a two-fight losing streak. Overall, Pierson improved his record to 12-6 in mixed martial arts matches that he's been a part of. "It was a great victory," Pierson said on the UFC website. "Jake was a real tough guy. He's an explosive fighter. He was a better wrestler than what I had thought." "I thought I was doing great in the first round and in the second round I was going well again, but in the beginning of the third he caught me with a high kick. I couldn't judge distance and I couldn't engage. I was trying to survive." What Pierson felt helped him overcome the adversity he faced was his jiujitsu skills. "But by the end of the round I thought I was ahead of the scorecard so I didn't have a rush to finish him. "I put my best effort out there. I wasn't about to lay down and give up." As for his next fight, Pierson said he will plead with UFC president Dana White to be on the next card to be held in Canada, whether it be in Toronto or Montreal. "I need to be on the Toronto card," Pierson said. "Toronto is my home town but Montreal is my home away from home because I train there at Tristars. I'll beg and plead to get on one of those cards." 905-642-5111 · 3M Scotchguard · LOOSE RUGS · BROADLOOM · UPHOLSTERY To find out more about how to reach your target market and get the same great response from your flyer distributions as these customers, call us today! *Selected areas only 905-294-2200 visit flyerland.ca Career Development Career Development Career Development Careers Careers Careers Careers Careers Careers
