    Yeah but I think they figure the main event alone will sell it. If either JJ or Hashad drop out, that event is not PPV worthy--but we've said that before and been surprised so who knows...

    Crazy that there is an entire month before the next UFC event but the pace they've put on this year so far has been intense.

    Re: UFC/Strikeforce fight rumors and announcements

    I can't believe they couldn't get a decent name power co-main event for the 146 card. They were banking on Hendo taking a fight for that card, but he didn't. Why would they put all of their eggs in one basket? They couldn't put Mir-Velasquez or Machida-??? on it? I won't be ordering it...just not a PPV worthy card IMO.

    However, 146 more than makes up for it.

    Rumours that Gil Melendez will rematch Josh Thompson (again) are untrue, but Melendez isn't saying who is next opponent will be (if he knows).

    Cesar Gracie wants him to fight Anthony Pettis. However, Showtime says he's committed to fighting in the UFC.

    The follow up to this is that Anthony Pettis vs. Jose Aldo is rumoured.

    Somewhere in Japan, Hatsu Hioki is fuming.

    Squeaky wheel gets the grease, I guess. Misses weight & loses to Bader, gets rewarded with a title eliminator-level fight. Maybe Bader will fight Machida?

    I don't like Rampage, but I don't think you should hold missing weight against him. He shouldn't use injuries as an excuse, but he hasn't missed weight before. I don't think its a title eliminator, either. Shogun isn't exactly running hot.

    Should of said contender battle seeing as how Shogun is higher up on the ladder than Bader. Obv Hendo has first.

    Fabricio Werdum vs. Mike Russow, Erick Silva vs. Mike Pierce added to UFC Brazil 3, UFC on FOX 4 announced for Staples Center in August.

    Demian Maia has dropped to welterweight. A little disappointing for fans who wanted to see him fight Toquinho. Dunno if there are a lot of good matches for him in the 170-division seeing as how there are so many good wrestlers.
