    Totally forgot about Okami, that guy should get a crack at Silva, or at least a #1 contender match. Why doesn't the UFC just let 103 become a free card and have Swick/Kampmann headline that sucker.

    Probably because they are paying Crocop big money as the co-main event, Franklin-Hendo 2 is strong enough to headline a card, or if they get Tito, so would Ortiz-Franklin.

    5 oz of pain has that rumor up of Hendo/Belfort and Franklin/Ortiz, as well.

    The UFC still hasn't announced Franklin vs. Henderson 2 so it seems like that idea is out. Maybe waiting for Ortiz & Belfort?

    Hendo vs. Belfort is my gut feeling.

    Uh, anyone know anything about fiveknuckles.com?

    They've got a source saying Fedor vs. Lesnar @ 103 is in the works.

    Never heard of it. If true, I'm sure a more credible source will jump in and say so.

    It kind of makes sense if they do sign Fedor. Floyd Mayweather fights the same night as UFC 103.
