Jones could have stepped in maybe which i doubt he would but he had the contract for rampage fight signed already so...yeah

Davis apparently offered to return vs Evans from what i know ..he said he could fight or something but he just had to rest... but davis is boring and one dimensional so who cares


dana is such a random though ..all of sudden somehow tito wins and dana is talking like hes the #1 contender but he was bashing him before that

evans wins then what dana?

If Evans wins he fights the winner of Rampage and Jones for the belt. LOL.

Hard to follow you here. It's actually quite simple, if Evans wins, he gets a title shot.

Dana said if Tito wins he won't be the #1 contender, but he'll be in the mix, meaning he'd need one more win to get a title shot.

How is Dana random? Lol. There was nobody else to fight, Tito and Machida were literally the only two to choose from.

And why are you saying Jones could have stepped in? Not sure if you were being serious at all with your post.

Lil' Nog is out, per Dana White's Twitter.

The whole fight was scratched. It got too out of hand.

If anyone should be moved off the main card it should be Ebersole and Hallman. I love Ebersole's weirdness but come on. Hammill and the Swede are much more main card worthy.

And I don't care that the pre lims are aired somewhere else I think the main card should still be reserved for the best/most entertaining potential fights.

I still don't know how this card is PPV. It will be the least selling of the year most likely, but having Tito come in did bump it a bit I bet.

I think it will do 250-300k just like 130 and 132 did.

New Injury: Sakara out. Rivera will fight Costas Phillipou

[goh]

Re: UFC 133, Rashad Evans vs. Tito Ortiz-- 8/6/11

So the only fight that's held up from the original post is Akiyama/Belfort.
You'd think most of the injuries would happen during the fight.

Well injury riddled cards have turned out to be really great before.

Not UFC 108...

That's 3 times Rivera/Sakara has been scrapped now. Will be funny watching the UFC constantly trying to put that fight together only to have it fall apart each time.

Yeah lol. They should just stop that. It is terrible luck, not going to happen. Sucks though as I thought that would have been the FOTN

Good trailer from the UFC. Everything looks/sounds better with **** music.

MacDonald also rules out fighting GSP down the road.

"I get asked all the time whether I'd fight Georges or not, and my answer is always the same. I'd never go out of my way to disrespect Georges or any of the guys at the TriStar gym. These guys are like to family to me now and Georges is as close as a brother. I would never ask for a title shot while he was still UFC champion. He has helped me out, taught me things and extended his trust to me. There's no way I could then turn around and demand a fight against him. I would never disrespect him like that.

If anything, I would move up in weight and fight for the middleweight or light-heavyweight belts instead. I'm not scared to move up in weight. By the time my career is over, I'd like to say that I'd competed at welterweight, middleweight, light-heavyweight and even heavyweight. I'd love to do something like that. "
