    Liddell/Couture 4 planned for UFC 116.

    So that pretty much confirms that Franklin won't be fighting Liddell, and Ortiz won't be fighting anyone.

    Who the fuck wants to see that? I'd prefer Liddell/Ortiz 3 or Liddell/Franklin. WTF, Couture? I don't think Randy can beat him, still. I bet Chuck KO's him.

    Fresh out of brain surgery, Thiago Alves wants Jon Fitch at UFC 114. 115 or 116 more likely.

    Todd "Duffman" Duffee vs. Mike "Holy shit I'm fighting THAT guy?!" Russow promoted to main card of UFC 114.

    Fans of Amir Sadollah will have to hope he gets a finish for him to be on the broadcast.

    The inevitable borefest that is Bisping vs. Miller also on the main card.

    Frank Edgar could defend his title at the July show in Boston against either Gray Maynard or Kenny Florian.

    If it is in Boston, it'll be against Florian.

    I want to see Maynard get a shot.

    Either way, that belt will be back around BJ's waist by year's end.

    I can't wait for UFC 113.

    Machida/Shogun should be an awesome fight!

    I don't see Penn/Edgar happening @ 116. Brock and Carwin is supposed to happen then...unless of course, Dana pays the fans back by giving us that awesome card!

    The July 4th weekend is a great time to put on a big show.

    Plus I doubt Penn/Edgar 2 is much of a draw on its own.

    Is Canada the Mecca of MMA?

    UFC in Montreal sold out in an hour both times.

    UFC in Vancouver just sold out in 30mins.

    Yikes.
