    filling out the undercard at UFC 90... I could honestly see one of these guys getting cut if this fight is lack luster.

    News on TUF 7's winner, Amir Sadollah.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Amir Sadollah’s Return

    Ultimate Fighter Season 7 winner Amir Sadollah is preparing for his first fight since defeating C.B. Dalloway in the finals on June 21. Sadollah said that he’ll be fighting again in September or - more likely - October. At this point, the opponent is not known.

    One question Sadollah did answer for certain though is which weight class he’ll be fighting at.

    I’ll be fighting at middleweight. I will not be dropping to 170,” said Sadollah.

    Sadollah has also moved from Virginia to Las Vegas to train at - where else - Xtreme Couture.</div>

    Dana White told MMA Live that the GSP/Penn fight is indeed happening at the New Year's show.

    Also Mike Swick was rumored to be added to the UFC 90 card in Chicago, but he has not fully recovered from recent surgery on his right elbow. He does hope to fight by the end of the year.

    You mean the heartbreaking part of the article?
    Hopefully they make the Nog/Mir card good.
    I'm still very disappointed that my opportunity to see GSP/Penn live is gone.

    Rivera isn't one to be trifled with. CB better bring his A-game.

    I'm going to assume he'll try and take him down right away and not mess around. I would think he has a short leash when it comes to chances after losing to Amir twice.

    Another great fight has been added to UFC 91 in Demian Maia vs. Nate Quarry. A win by Maia could realistically put him in a position to fight for the number one contender slot with Okami or Bisping.

    Shogun vs. Machida is rumoured to be happening at UFC 93 (St. Pierre vs. Penn II).

    Silva vs. Jackson has supposedly been pushed back to UFC 92. Maybe the main event of UFC 91 (Lesnar/Couture) is enough for the buyrate that they don't need a strong card around it.
