MMA News: The UFC Signs Jon Olav Einemo to the Heavyweight Division

The UFC heavyweight division just got a little bit more interesting.

It seems like only last month that this guy named Jon Olav Einemo started entering the heads of MMA fans—even some of the hardcore followers that had never even heard of him.

When the name only exists in your brain for a month, it's tough to really know much about a 7-1-0 Norwegian prospect whose only loss was a unanimous decision skid against Fabricio Werdum at PRIDE 31.

Now, Dana White and Co. have officially made it to where we might remember that name for a longer amount of time.

Fanhouse MMA reports that while Einemo did sign with the MMA super-titan, there is still no official word about who he will debut against or when.

All that can be said about him is that he'll be the first member of Team Golden Glory to have recently put it in dried ink that he was, in fact, a member of the Ultimate Fighting Championship.

That, and Einemo also has won six fights by submission, with two submission wins by strikes, and he hasn't scored a TKO win since his second fight in MMA.

The loss to Werdum is the only time that Einemo has gone to the judges, but there's a difference between the Jon Olav Einemo of the PRIDE days and the Jon Olav Einemo of 2011.

Rest assured that when he does debut in the UFC, the difference between what he is and what he used to be will show, and the difference won't be his age.

UFC heavyweight division, beware.
