| Heath Herring to Stay with UFC; Wants Title Shot ![]() Although much of the discussion before UFC 82's co-main event of Heath Herring (28-13 MMA, 2-2 UFC) vs. Cheick Kongo (11-4-1 MMA, 4-2 UFC) focused on heavyweight title shot implications, split-decision winner Herring is not expecting an immediate chance at the belt. "He (Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira) just got that title," Herring said. "Let the poor guy enjoy his title a few times before he has to have another battle with me." Herring has already faced Nogueira three times in his career, coming up short each time (two via decision and one by submission). But those three losses have not deterred Herring from wanting another shot at the UFC's interim heavyweight belt. "It's starting to get like a bad 'Rocky' movie," Herring joked. "I'd love to take that one, though... I would love to fight (Nogueira) again. I want that belt, I do. I'll be honest. We'll just see what happens."
