As far as I know it is confirmed. As for Lil Nog vs Bader, I think Lil Nog has better hands than Bader.

that will be a good fight, but I think Bader has underrated stand up. I would actually pick Bader to win that one, and then Bader vs. Bones after that, but I am hoping Dana will give Bones a top 5 guy after his next fight assuming he wins of course; I think he has shown he has the skills to compete with the best in the division.

 

[NosferatuBill36]

As for Forrest...I met him twice and both times he was a total A-hole to me and my wife. He can go fight Anderson again.

I have heard that a few times before as well.

Especially at conventions.

Well even if Bader gets past lil Nog, he wouldnt beat Jones. Jones would have all the reach and explosive power that would shut down Bader for sure. As for Vlady...hes going down also.

Vlady is going to be eating a bag full of elbows.

Big Nog vs Mir makes zero ____ing sense to me.

It makes sense because both guys are coming off a loss. It would've been stupid (to me) if like Nog had beat Cain and THEN fought Mir who was coming off a loss. I still would've preferred Gonzaga vs. Mir personally though.

So it looks like the lil Nog vs. Rampage fight was called off because the UFC wants Rampage vs. Machida for UFC 121. So that's what they're working on apparently as a co-main event with the main event being Vitor Belfort vs. the winner of Silva/Sonnen for the MW Title.

Machida is gonna F Rampage up, leg kick...leg kick...leg kick...straight right to the chin and down goes Rampage.

 

[Devil_666]

Yeah I think so too. And I think that's why Rampage has been avoiding that fight. It's not a good match up IMO.

Check it out, Mark Hunt says he signed a 4 fight deal with the UFC and will debut at 119 against Sean McCorkle (7-0 MMA).

I remember there being talk of Hunt coming to the UFC but the problem (that I remember) was he couldn't make the 265 HW limit. So not sure what changed.

Don't expect much from Hunt TBH. Gatekeeper status at best IMO. He's 5-6 now in MMA and that includes 5 straight losses in a row. Granted, all those losses are to a whos-who of MMA (Mousassi, Manhoef, Overeem, Fedor, Barnett) but still. He hasn't won an MMA fight since 2006. And 2 of those losses are to non-HW's (Mousassi - LHW & Manhoef - MW).

This is just a rumor so far. Could be completely false. Just have to wait and see.

The rematch in general is stupid to me. Mir will finish Nog with strikes. Again.

No confidence in Big Nog?

 

[bumblebee]

I'm a huge Big Nog fan but I think he's done...he just doesn't know it yet.

 

[azurepred]

No confidence in Big Nog?

he just looks so slow, the Couture fight really showed that, honestly, I dont expect too many more fights from him til he retires if Dana feeds him to top contenders.

 

[kobayashi93]

I watched his first fight with Mir. So no.

[ArmoredFoe]

I think hes got the "chuck syndrome" going a bit. Not to say that hes not still a good fighter, but Ive think hes been beaten one to many times. Its starting to catch up to him.

Maybe he should pop in the DVD of the JDS fight.
