''UFC 39: The Warriors Return'' was a mixed martial arts event held by the Ultimate Fighting Championship on September 27, 2002, at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut. The event was broadcast live on pay per view in the United States, and was the first UFC event to be released on DVD. ==History== Headlining the event was a Heavyweight Title bout between Randy Couture and Ricco Rodriguez for the vacant title, which was stripped from Josh Barnett following a positive test for steroids. The event marked the octagon debut of future UFC Heavyweight Champion Tim Sylvia. This fight saw Tim's opponent, Correira, take several straight punches, knees and kicks to the head without ever falling before his corner eventually threw in the towel.

The others are BJ Penn vs. Diego Sanchez at ''UFC 107'', Anderson Silva vs. Chael Sonnen at ''UFC 117'', Demetrious Johnson vs. John Moraga at ''UFC on Fox 8'', Cain Velasquez vs. Junior Dos Santos III at ''UFC 166'', TJ Dillashaw vs. Renan Barao at ''UFC 173'', Dillashaw vs. Joe Soto at ''UFC 177'', Frankie Edgar vs. Cub Swanson at ''UFC Fight Night 57'', Demetrious Johnson vs. Kyoji Horiguchi at ''UFC 186'' and Stipe Miocic vs. Mark Hunt at ''UFC Fight Night 65''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「UFC 39」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
