    Johny Hendricks' hand is alright and he wants to face GSP in late summer. GSP has asked for a week off (lol) but we'll likely see this fight in August rather than July due to the number of big fights already booked for that month.

    A week off? Is that even necessary to ask for lol, its not like he's jumping right into a training camp.

    August is a good go for this fight. Hoping both parties stay healthy.

    GSP has opened as a somewhat narrow favourite to beat Johny Hendricks at -225, or 2ΒΌ-to-1.

    Martin Kampmann has called out Nick Diaz, saying that he would love to beat his ass.

    That fight would be funnnnnnnn. Make it happen.

    Sounds good to me, too. Hopefully he can talk Nick into fighting.

    Frankie Edgar returns against Charles "Do Bronx" Oliveira at UFC 162.

    Cub Swanson vs. Dennis Siver also going down at this event, presumably a title eliminator.

    Nope. Refused entry. Jackson's doesn't want him back. Guess he ran his mouth?

    That is one hell of a scrap. I imagine it should be a title eliminator.

    After briefly discussing other possibilities, Georges St-Pierre vs. Johny Hendricks will be booked for late summer/early autumn in the coming weeks.

    Jon Jones is interested in fighting Alex Gustafsson next, then Anderson Silva.

    Good for Jones wanting to fight Silva. I think Silva wins, but still, makes me respect Jones more that he wants to fight the best.

    DFW wants to make the UFC's debut on Fox Sports One in Boston a big deal and is hoping to put together the biggest TV card the UFC's done.

    Dana has already invited Conor McGregor to be on the card and Boston locals like Joe Lauzon will also likely be involved.

    Nelson/Cormier might happen. Cormier isn't hot on cutting weight.
