Re: Official MMA Thread
Looks like Randy and Big Nog have both signed on to fight each other at UFC 101. Hopefully Nog will show up this time. Looking forward to it.
On another note, in the "are you serious!?" catagory, Bobby Lashley will be fighting Ken Shamrock on March 21st. And finally, something I'm crazy excited about, Cung Le recently said he would fight Anderson Silva if the UFC would co-promote the fight with Strikeforce. Unfortunately, this likely won't happen.

Lashley is pretty good and ungodly strong and should have no problem beating Ken. Cung Le is, of course, a fantastic striker but nothing on the ground. Silva would win easily, imo. Last nights WEC card was pretty good. Mike Brown is turning into a real beast.

I used to see Tamdan at the bars a lot up at school. Never talked to him, but you'd never guess the kid's a pro fighter. |

Re: Official MMA Thread
Well crap!!!
Frank Mir Hurt, Out of UFC 98 Fight With Brock Lesnar The UFC 98 heavyweight title unification fight between champion Brock Lesnar and Interim champion Frank Mir will reportedly not take place on May 23 as scheduled, as Mir has suffered an injury that will keep him out of the Octagon for at least a few months. FiveOuncesofPain.com and MMAMania.com both reported the news Friday afternoon, although the reports conflicted about the nature of the injury and exactly how long Mir will be out. It's not clear whether Lesnar will still fight at UFC 98 against a different opponent, or whether Lesnar will be put on ice until Mir is ready for the rematch. Either way, Lesnar-Mir was the heavyweight fight that UFC fans most wanted to see this year, and this news is a major disappointment. The UFC will announce a new main event for UFC 98 during tonight's pay-per-view broadcast of UFC 96 "Jackson vs. Jardine," MMAFighting.com has learned. Current UFC 98 Card: Matt Hughes vs. Matt Serra Sean Sherk vs. Frankie Edgar Josh Koscheck vs. Chris Wilson James Irvin vs. Drew McFedries Houston Alexander vs. Andre Gusmao Yoshiyuki Yoshida vs. Brandon Wolff Phillipe Nover vs. Kyle Bradley Tim Hague vs. Patrick Barry George Roop vs. David Kaplan

Re: Official MMA Thread
I'm pickin' Jardine to knock-out Jackson. I don't think Jardine gets enough credit for the caliber of fighter that he is.
