    Cote wants to fight Franklin in Montreal in May.

    Cote wants him to come down to middleweight to fight him. Maybe catchweight would work seeing as how Franklin does more of those than anyone.

    Get it done, Joe.

    Franklin has to feel used. These catchweight fights aren't getting him anywhere, he's done with 185, and 205 he isn't getting any fights. He's basically the definition of a door keeper, now.

    Franklin was a door keeper the minute he lost his 2nd fight with Silva. Problem was no one else at 185 was beating him and thus he woulda kept even more fighters away from a title beat down from Anderson Silva. So Dana and co. encouraged him to move to 205 where his size advantage is gone. He's still a solid fighter at LHW, just not a title contender.

    Don't like the match-up for Reljic. CB is going to try and L&P him to avoid his kicks.

    Goran's going to have to work on his sprawl-and-brawl.

    Little Nog vs. Vera official for UFC 109. Kind of odd considering Vera lost and Nog won, but w/e, great kickboxing fight.

    Also, looks like we've gone back to Marquardt vs. Sonnen for UFC 109, instead of Marquardt/Belfort.

    Carlos Condit out vs. Paul Daley @ UFC 108... no word on a replacement yet.

    Possible Kampmann vs. Daley rematch, perhaps?

    Cool news, bro...

    Dustin Hazelett will sub in for Carlos Condit. Doesn't change the dynamic of the fight so much for Daley who will still try to keep it standing, as always. Now he has less to worry about on the feet, though.

    Rampage's first fight back will be against Rashad should Rashad beat Thiago Silva.

    Guess it should be regardless but that's the deal right now.

    Dana White is determined to have Matt Hughes and Renzo Gracie square-off in 2010, likely at UFC 112 in Abu Dhabi.
