    What's the over/under on how many of those fights get changed before Dec 10th?

    I'm hopeful it stays the same.We've already had two fighters drop out of it (Phil Davis and Rashad Evans) and hopefully that will be all.

    Two guys named Minotaur, two guys named Bad Boy, and two guys named Bull. Guess the list of nicknames in the UFC is kind of like the list in a video game.

    Tito Ortiz no longer wants to be known as "The Huntington Beach Bad Boy" (a name he stole from Tank Abbott, BTW), and is calling himself "The People's Champion" now. Somewhere, The Rock and Chael Sonnen are fuming.

    Ticket sales haven't gone nearly as well as they did last time in Toronto (Rogers Centre/SkyDome sold out, the ACC, with 1/3 the tickets, hasn't), which has left Zuffa scratching their bald heads. Montreal and Vancouver are quick sellouts.

    Answer: Toronto is trendy and vapid. Now Zuffa knows what the rest of Canada knows.

    Re: UFC 140: Jones vs. Machida (Dec. 10th)

    This fight will be Machida-kun's third in Canada, the place where he suffered his first loss (vs. Shogun @ UFC 113) and arguably his most spectacular win (vs. Couture @ UFC 129). Three of his last four fights in Canada--dunno if this is just the way the events are scheduled or if it is a conscious decision on Joe Silva's part.

    GSP not being on the card this time around must have an effect. Plus the last Toronto card had two title fights.

    I don't think so--recent cards in Vancouver & Montreal have done well without Canadians in the main event.

    Dennis Hallman's lightweight debut hasn't gone according to plan with the fighter missing weight twice and forfeiting a portion of his salary as a result. Have to imagine that he's fighting to keep his job tomorrow.
