    Jake Ellenberger would be happy to rematch Carlos Condit at UFC 171 (contrary to reports that he is injured).

    Tyrone Woodley has been texting DFW 15-30x a day for fights.

    DFW confirms that he had a meeting with Diaz and asked him if he wanted a rematch with Condit at at event and Diaz was not interested.

    Why you scared, homie?

    Carlos Condit vs Tyron Woodley official for UFC 171. Sounds like a fight where Condit's weak wrestling will screw him.

    Shooto Brazil might put on a man-vs.-woman fight at their 45th show. Nova Uniao's Andre Pederneiras is saying that Emerson Falcao will fight Juliana Velasquez. This could only end well.

    George Sotiropoulos has been cut following his fourth consecutive loss. Alessio Sakara has also been cut for the same reason although I don't know why it took the UFC two months to do it. Rosi Sexton has been cut but might have a chance to return with the new strawweight division being introduced next year.

    Apparently the Shooto man-vs.-woman fight isn't happening and the promotion is saying it was just a publicity stunt designed to raise awareness about domestic abuse.

    His manager says this rumour isn't true but also admitted that Amagov has a serious issue in his family and might take time away, and that he's very religious.

    If you read between the lines it suggests that Amagov likely was or is thinking of quitting but his manager knows him well enough that he expects him to cool off or he's trying to convince him otherwise.

    According to doctors and Anderson Silva's boxing coach, the Spider will be back training on 3-6 months and plans on continuing to fight. Anderson's coach also predicted that Silva would have KO'd Weidman in the 3rd.

    However to Weidman's credit, they did compliment him on his beautifully placed checked kick.

    Sounds way too optimistic for a 38, soon to be 39 year old fighter, but I hope it happens.

    A fibula break doesn't take too long to recover from. He should be out of a walking cast in six or eight weeks.

    I don't expect him to fight again but if he does I guess that's great? I dunno.

    He's fortunate (?) he didn't get flattened in the first round. Weidman nearly KO'd him. Third round KO prediction is nonsense.

    Ever since Chael dropped Silva, his chin became suspect. I remember videos where Silva challenged and ate punches for breakfast. Those days are gone...

    Cung Le is coming back this year and would like a fight with, you guessed it, Frank Stallone--er--Michael Bisping. Or Wanderlei Silva. Both fine by me.
