    Wiffa Cheeto is still pushing for a second rematch with Forrest Griffin, who is down with the idea as well.

    Brandon Vera vs. Thiago Silva rematch scheduled for UFC on FX 3. We'll see if Silva can pummel him again--this time (presumably) without the PED's.

    Pat Barry vs. Lavar Johnson scheduled for UFC on FOX 3 on the televised card. Great, great choice.

    Sonnen/Silva in June but the location is still up in the air. They want to do it in an open arena is Sao Paulo but it hasn't been easy to arrange.

    Carlos Condit has accepted a rematch with Nick Diaz and will be in Vegas on Thursday to sign the contract if Dana and company want that fight.

    Dana White has confirmed the rematch is set through his twitter account and Condit will be in Vegas on Friday to sign the contract.

    I'm guessing this will headline the UFC 4th of July show?

    Re: UFC/Strikeforce fight rumors and announcements

    As the world of Nick Diaz turns...

    Rumors: the fight is off because he doesn't want to fight in Vegas, he failed his post fight drug test (which is ridiculous if he gets suspended for it--he had a medical card), Condit wants to wait for
    GSP.

    I'm sure we'll know more later. If anything I think we will see Nick fail a test, Caesar Gracie said the other day that we won't see Nick back this year....

    Re: UFC/Strikeforce fight rumors and announcements

    Frontrowbrian on twitter (no idea who the fuck he is--but he did break the rumor of the rematch being on) is saying that the rematch is off because there is an issue with Diaz' testing and it is weed related. Condit will wait for GSP, now.

    Waiting for Dana or the athletic commission to release something before fully believing it, but I am leaning towards believing it. These rumors plus Gracie tweeting that Nick won't be fighting until next year only back each other up.

    Cruz/Faber 3, a fight I'm supposed to care about but don't, targeted for the 4th of July weekend (actually July 7th), to coincide with the end of TUF--but not on free TV, on PPV, tentatively scheduled to be UFC 148.

    Re: UFC/Strikeforce fight rumors and announcements

    Roger Gracie has reportedly been signed by the UFC. The timing is surprising considering he got exposed and KTFO in his last fight (granted, a juiced-up Lawal headbutted him a few times leading up to it). Guess they'll have to ween him slowly against other grapplers and wrestlers before letting another good striker have at him.
