Re: UFC on FX 5: Browne vs. Bigfoot (Oct/5) Dunno if FX gets to choose the fights they want on their card but they've picked Neer/Edwards as the fourth bout and left Stephens/Edwards and Palaszewski/Nunes on the undercard. Seems like the worst of the three although Neer fights are never boring.
Re: UFC on FX 5: Browne vs. Bigfoot (Oct/5) A win for Travis Browne will set him up for a title eliminator against an elite heavyweight, per the latest. Someone on the level of Mir.
Re: UFC on FX 5: Browne vs. Bigfoot (Oct/5) Tavares/Hallman canceled due to Hallman badly missing weight. Carlo Prater vs. Marcus LeVesseur takes their place on the televised card.

Re: UFC on FX 5: Browne vs. Bigfoot (Oct/5) The UFC has opted to put Pierce/Simpson on FuelTV as well, meaning all of the fights will be broadcast starting at 5pm ET on Fuel and 8pm ET on FX.
Re: UFC on FX 5: Browne vs. Bigfoot [Live & Free tonight on Fuel & FX] According to the whole world, except Dana White, Jeremy Stephans and Yves Edwards is canceled because Stephens is in Jail on a felony charge. He was arrested in Minnesota for a crime committed in another state and according to sheriff records, he is not eligible for bail.
Re: UFC on FX 5: Browne vs. Bigfoot [Live & Free tonight on Fuel & FX] Unusual to have two fights called off within 24-hours of the event!

Great night of fights. Hard to watch a good HW like Browne blow his knee out. That sucked. Dodson vs. Johnson is going to be a blur of a fight. Dodson has the power, Johnson the technique. Both are crazy fast. Sounds like a 5-rounder.
He threw a high kick and threw out his left knee in the process. From that point on he was fighting on one leg and it put him out of sorts, leading to the TKO.
