    If GSP can get past BJ Penn without serious injury, expect to see St. Pierre vs. Thiago Alves at UFC 97 in Montreal. Other expected participants are Patrick Cote (if he is healed), Jonathan Goulet, Sam Stout, and Jason MacDonald (predictably).

    James Irvin wants to fight Wanderlei Silva in April. We'll see if that happens.

    The first of these mentioned fighters, Jonathan Goulet, has been added to the UFC 97 card. He will fight Tamdan "The Barn Cat" McCrory who has too many goddamned C's and R's in his name.

    I hope Denis Kang fights in the montreal card, maybe against Cote or Macdonald?

    After a little bit of push and pull, the UFC has agreed with Spike TV to air UFC 95 on television rather than PPV. Maybe it has something to do with Joe Silva crafting one of the weakest cards possible?

    Lesnar vs. Mir @ UFC 97 is likely.

    White said that if Liddell wins his next fight, he could possibly face Anderson Silva after.

    Rich Franklin doesn't want to coach TUF.

    White would welcome back CroCop to the UFC with open arms.

    Shane "They're sucking each others dicks" Nelson vs. Aaron Riley for UFC 96.
    David Bielkheden vs. TBA at UFC 96, also.

    Why not save it for UFC 100?

    Defeating Carwin will put Gabe Gonzaga back in line for a shot at the title, according to mmamania.

    Keith Jardine vs. Luis Cane at UFC 97. That one could be a catapult into the title picture for Cane, or some redemption for The Dean of Mean.

    Alessio Sakara can't go for UFN 17 so Dan Miller is stepping into his spot.

    The Millers are always good for last minute replacements.
