Re: UFC 146: dos Santos vs. Mir (May/26) DFW says this card is getting shaken up, so the heavyweight fights might be shuffled around.
Re: UFC 146: dos Santos vs. Mir (May/26) Shane del Rosario waiting for a new opponent. Not an easy guy to fight on short notice.
Re: UFC 146: dos Santos vs. Mir (May/26) Stipe Miocic in to face Del Rosario. Wow. Usually the UFC won't put two prospects against each other. Super fight.
Re: UFC 146: dos Santos vs. Mir (May/26) Mir has stated in a recent interview that he thinks he hits harder than JDS.
Re: UFC 146: dos Santos vs. Mir (May/26) Jamie Varner in for Evan Dunham. Did not think I'd see Varner in the UFC again.

Re: UFC 146: dos Santos vs. Mir (May/26) Lavar Johnson in for Mark Hunt vs. Stefan Struve. Is there even a 1% chance this fight goes to a decision?
Re: UFC 146: dos Santos vs. Mir (May/26) Struve gets Johnson down and submits him with a triangle or he gets his ass knocked out in the first two minutes. Can't really see this fight going any other way.

Re: UFC 146: dos Santos vs. Mir (May/26) Great card top to bottom. Nice to see Cain, Big Country, Dan Hardy rebound. Shocking Jamie Varner performance. Cain back to his old ways of brutal GnP. Wonder what's next for him, he'll probably be back in the octagon with JDS before too long.

As expected Mayhem Miller is cut from the UFC following his second bad showing in as many fights. He reportedly pushed an MGM Grand official and got into a verbal altercation with UFC officials following his bout, then got into it with (a composed) CB Dolloway during the post-fight medical exams. He doesn't owe the UFC anything but he could've gone out with more grace.
Re: UFC 146: dos Santos vs. Mir (May/26) Velasquez likely to get the next shot at JDS in autumn. Both fighters come away largely unscathed. Fight could be booked late summer, even.
