    The UFC is headed back to the United Center on July 20th.

    Pretty much lining that one up for CM Punk's debut, no?

    my insider said it was going to be TD or CTC so with that knowledge it must have come down to negotiations between the two locations with the UFC.

    (FYI my insider works at both venues for events and part time at my work too..... going to hit them up for advanced tickets. Won't get a price break but early chance to buy is possible)

    Tate/Holm 2 looking like the next title fight for the FBW's. Holm reportedly passed on a fight with Cyborg because she thinks she will get a title shot.

    I guess it goes without saying but there are going to be a lot of "fight announcements" tomorrow on Apr. 1st.

    CM Punk hasn't resumed training since getting back surgery six weeks ago. He won't be ready to fight Micky Gall at UFC 200. So, unlikely he'll be ready to fight at the Chicago show a couple weeks later. Sucks for him. Looking like we're pushing into the winter before we (finally) see him fight.

    First troll of the day appears to be Neil Magny tweeting that he's fighting Robbie Lawler at UFC 200.

    Demian Maia better not see that.

    The next season of TUF will feature flyweights. The winner will get a shot at DJ. So they're basically crowdsourcing a number one contender?

    Mark Hunt, who the UFC tried to buy-out at one point rather than have him compete in the octagon, has signed a new deal with the promotion. Amazing!

    DJ found out about this while livestreaming on Twitch. He had no idea.

    I guess it makes sense, though. He might not be champion by then. Got a tough fight coming up.

    Don't really care to watch koscheck much these days, but that's a fight I'll definitely tune into because of the history those two have.

    Lol, Bellator was once a legit up an coming organization. They're absolutely killing themselves with this Kimbo bull shit.

    well they've gone strikeforce-lite booking ever since Scott Coker showed up... big surprise. They're not moving forward using all of these retreads and has bins. They need to develop their own young talent IMO. Kinda reminds me of the terrible turn TNA wrestling took when they let those old WCW execs/wrestlers into their org.

    It'd be one thing if they were smuggling in fights with like Mike Page and the like but their last shit show was no up-and-comers.

    Cyborg has called out Ronda Rousey for a 140-lbs. catch weight fight at the MSG show in November (UFC ~205).
