Added: Ben Rothwell (31-8) vs Brendan Schaub (8-2)
Browne vs Griggs is a pretty big top end match up IMO…. Winner may fight for the title before long.
UPDATE: Added Gray Maynard vs. Clay Guida
Gray vs Clay was a troll post on a fake DW twitter i believe. The fight isn’t happening, although it could, but right now that was a fake post.
Yeah… everyone that had it posted yesterday has since removed it! Too bad, woulda been a great fight!
I hope they do it though! I was really excited when i saw it!
UPDATE: Added Mark Hominick vs. Eddie Yagin
The card is looking a little lackluster for me so far, unless that’s just the under-card right there.
You have to assume Griggs/Browne will be on the main card and probably Mills/MacDonald.
The UFC has officially announced Bocek/Wiman for this event too.
All these fights are interesting to me but not worth forking over the cash to see it live.
UPDATE: Added Mark Bocek vs. Matt Wiman
UPDATE: Added Mac Danzig vs. Efrain Escudero
Really boring card so far.
Chris Clements has been booked to fight Keith Wisniewski
Added John Makdessi vs Anthony Njokuani
This event is now cancelled.
Yup… this event has been postponed, word is many of the bouts will be moved to the card that is currently listed as UFC 146 in Atlanta. I’ll keep this one up until the bouts have been dispersed to other cards!
I wonder if this will affect their plans to head back to Toronto later this year?
Bocek Wiman is an awesome match up wherever it happens.
UPDATE: Added Maximo Blanco vs. Marcus Brimage, Mark Hominick vs. Eddie Yagin officially moved to this card.
