Lyoto Machida vs. Thiago Silva is tentatively rescheduled for UFC 93, with Page/Wand back on the NYE card (UFC 92).
Brian Stann and Steve Cantwell are expected to debut at UFN 16 (For The Troops) in their third match against each other, this time non-title.
The UFC is heading back to Ireland for a January 17th show, meaning UFC 93 is now mid-January, and UFC 94: St. Pierre vs. Penn II, will be at the end of the month in Vegas, Montreal, or elsewhere. No card has been set up for UFC 93 but rumours have Rich Franklin competing on the card with Mark Coleman, Shogun Rua, and Chuck Liddell also being involved. The obligatory appearance from Marcus Davis should also be mentioned.
Update on UFC 93: That was fast. Now the rumours have Rich Franklin fighting Dan Henderson in their long-awaited match in Dublin.
Yushin Okami vs. Dean Lister for UFC 92 Matt Hughes vs. Matt Serra being tentatively booked for UFC 93
source mma junkie Riddell seems to have lots of promise, training at a good camp like Arizona Combat Sports should show drastic improvements.
Barring any serious pokes to the eye, Johnson is going to KO Burns in the first two rounds this time, I just know it. I really like Anthony Johnson, he seems like a real good and humble guy, what he said after the first fight with Burns was proof of that. As for being a fighter, he is such an explosive striker, and is a good wrestler. He has an especially good sprawl, I think he's got talent to be a force at Welterweight. I would love to see a fight between him and Thiago Alves, could you imagine the firerworks in that fight?
CB Dollaway will not fight Jorge Rivera at UFC 92, but Mike Massenzio instead. Antoni Hardonk will also fight at UFC 92 against UFC newcomer Mark Burch.
